Letter to Albert's father from Albert's commanding officers

17th June 1916

Sir I regret to have to report the death of your son C7259 Rfn. A. French, who was killed by machine gun fire, whilst with a working party June 15th 1916. He was a very good soldier, although so young, and a willing worker, who made many friends in the company. He is sadly missed not only by his section, but by his platoon and company, and not the least of all by myself Yours faithfully R Pennell, Capt. for Major Cmdg. 'A'Coy.
