Agar – In loving memory of our dear son, Pte. Nicholas Raine Agar, M.M., killed in action, 20 September 1917.
We waited for your return, Nichol, dear
Your footsteps we think we often hear;
But why wish you back to a world so full of sin.
Our sorrow is but a dark night, there’s a bright meeting day to begin.
Ever remembered by his loving father, mother, sister, uncles and aunts.”
