               WAINER – Killed in action instantaneously by shell, October 8th, 1917, Pioneer E. A. Wainer, son of Mr. Thomas Wainer, The Ings, Freiston, aged 39 years

                       Sleep on, dear son, in a hero's grave

                       In a grave we may never see

                       But as long as live and memory lasts

                       We will remember thee

 

But the hardest part is yet to come

When the heroes all return

And we miss among the cheering crowd

The face of our dear son
