Harry Haigh (York & Lancs) of Denaby was killed on August 22nd.

He was a reservist when war broke out, and had since seen a great deal of service, being wounded on two occasions.

Last Christmas he married the daughter of Mr & Mrs Herbert Day, Adwick Street, Denaby, and she has been informed of her husband’s death by Company Sergeant Major, who writes:

I can hardly express to you how much I, along with his comrades, miss your husband. He was one of the best, and was killed in the execution of his duty.
I, along with his comrades, offer you our deepest sympathy.”
