Roberts conducted the service. Mrs. George Johnston presided at the organ and accompanied the choir. At an early age Rev. Roberts was bereft of his father by death. Only a few mementoes remained: a photo on a desk, a gold pocket watch and a medal with the inscription "The great war for civilization 1914-18." "This was the first man I never knew". During the ensuing years there were several others. In 1939 there was the man on duty, old and grey bearing the letters L.D,V. (local defense volunteer) on his lapel. Again in 1934 there was the smartly uniformed young man, in training, who shouldered a new gun and responded to curt army commands. In June 1940, this soldier returned from Dunkirk by train, unrecognizable, wrapped in a grey blanket, wearing old shoes and without his gun. He too was a "Man I Never Knew". Another was a firefigher, who following an air raid, returned home torn, dirty and weary after many days on duty. Some lads are . remembered only by posted photographs edged in black. After emigrating to Belgrave, Rev. Roberts surprisingly, net several local veterans who bore the imprint of war. Some have died and others are residing here and have taken the form of the "Unknown Man." Today, because of the "Man I Never Knew" we stand in gratitude. People report Mrs. Stanley Snell and Mrs. Bernard Guite of London spent a couple of days this week with the formers brother Harold Keating.
