SubjectHewett, Sidney Frank
TitleLetter regarding Sidney F. Hewett believed missing
NotesThis letter was sent to my grandmother by one of the partners of the solicitor's firm where my father worked before signing up. I have no information of his having been missing, but he was in the 1/22nd Battalion of the 47th (London) Division, and in France at the time. I think the letter shows that the young men who were at the front were not forgotten at home, even if their jobs were not held open until they returned.
