THE LATE LANCE-CORPORAL W.H. GREEN.
Lance-Corporal W. H. Green, who is reported to have died on September 3 from wounds received at the Dardanelles, was the second son of Mr. and Mrs. William Green, Gumeracha. He was born at Kidderminster, Worcestershire, England, onOctober 29, 1878, and arrived in South Australia with his parents by the s.s. Australasia in January, 1884. His early years were spent at Gumeracha, where the family started an orchard on the property well known as Springvale. Later he was engaged by the Adelaide Co-operative Society on their dairy farm at Kilkenny, where he worked for 8½ years, and then returned to Gumeracha to manage the orchard which he afterwards took over from his father. He continued there until enlisting with the 9th Light Horse. He took an active interest in all social, political, and religious matters connected with his district, and will be specially remembered for his earnest assistance in Sunday-school work. When quite a boy he joined the Gumeracha Division of Mounted Riflemen and was their first bugler. On joining the Expeditionary Force he threw himself into the work with characteristic fervor, and he was as much appreciated for his ability in handling horses as for his soldierly qualifications. It is supposed that he fell during one of the charges leading up to the taking of the heights of Sari Bahr. He left a widow and four children, for whom much sympathy is felt, as also for his parents, brothers, and sister, who are held in high esteem by the residents of Gumeracha. His father (Mr. W. Green) is travelling representative of Messrs. A. W.Sandford & Co.
