Percy Jackson officiating.

 The mourners embraced the bereaved father, brothers, sisters, brothers-in-law (Will and Harry), also the uncle, Mr. Edgar Davis, of Corsham.  Floral tributes were sent by father, sisters and brothers at home, Edie and Will, Gertie and Harry, Charlie, Lieut. and Mrs. Yalden, his friend Bob, Mr. and Mrs. Garland, fellow workers at the Inspection Board and friends at the Liberal Club Billiard Room.
