He enlisted in March, 1916, went into camp on April 3, and sailed on June 9 of that year. After a few months of training in England he wan transferred to France on November 25, and was under fire for the first time on Christmas Eve.

Private Daenke was born at Pooginagorie, near Wolseley, 27 years ago. He resided continuously in that district with the exception of a few years spent in farming at Nest Plains, Pinnaroo. He was loved by all who knew him.

Mr. and Mrs. Daenke had also been notified that their youngest son, Private Horace Daenkce, who was serving in the same battalion, is suffering from gas poisoning.

Horace apparently survived the war
