Roll of Honour
of those who have served and those who have made the final
and great sacrifice.
The verses below were written in 1914 by Mr R.H. Forster, of Corbridge-on-Tyne,
and that Whitley Bay well answered his clarion call is well evident:
To Northumberland.
Men of our own Northumberland, You, whose fathers, when Scots were near,
Born of a fighting breed, Buckled their harness on.
Hear ye not England’s stern demand? Sped the arrow and plied the spear
Know ye not England’s need? In the valley of Hamildon.
You, whose fathers in days gone by, Is your love of our land less pure,
Often answered the warning “cry,” Is your courage less and sure,
Will ye tarry when foes are nigh, Than their’s who battled on Branxton Moor,
And the call is a call indeed? In the days that are long since gone?
You, whose fathers have oft been seen,
True to their English name,
Wielding the bayonet’s deadly sheen
On many a field of fame.
Who so gallant in days of old,
The height to storm, or the trench to hold,
As the Fighting Fifth, as the Old and Bold?
Cannot you do the same?

In presenting our Readers with this Souvenir Roll of
Honour, we must take occasion to say that it does not
number on its pages the full list of those of the Urban
District who saw service during the Great war; neither
does it number all who went from our midst, and probably
made the great Sacrifice.
The names recorded in this brochure are those
voluntarily handed in to us from whose who served, or
by their friends or relations, in response to our invitation,
and to those we must tender our cordial thanks.
We should certainly have preferred to have presented
our readers with a perfect list, but that was manifestly
impossible. Our record, however, will prove itself to be the
most extended of any that has hitherto been compiled
locally.
