MR LAURENCE BINYON

Under the heading “Authors on Service”, Mr Francis Bickley contributes a most interesting article to “T.P.’s Weekly” on Mr Laurence Binyon, son of the late Rev. F.

Saturday 20 March 1915 – Engineers leave Evesham, football match against Badsey cancelled

ENGINEERS LEAVE EVESHAM

During their stay at Evesham the men have behaved in an exemplary manner and have made many friends, by whom their future career will be watched with interest. The men themselves are very keen on getting across the water as soon as possible, and it is highly probable that their ambition will be realised.
