REGINALD MACCABEE (brother of Thomas Arthur)
 
DIED OF WOUNDS
 
MACCABEE - Dec. 4, died of wounds received on 3rd in the Cambrai battle, Corpl. R.F. Maccabee, of the 2/4th Royal Berks. Regt., fourth son of Mr. and Mrs. H. Maccabee, of Roseleigh, Wash Common, aged 24 years.
 
He sleeps beside his comrades
In a hallowed grave unknown:
But his name is written in letters of love
In the hearts he left at home.
May the heavenly winds blow softly
O’er the sweet and hallowed spot,
Tho’ the sea divides his grave from us,
He will never be forgot. 


Grave at

VIII. B. 5. , ROCQUIGNY-EQUANCOURT ROAD BRITISH CEMETERY, MANANCOURT
