AuthorBinning, William
TitleLast letter and will in the family Bible
NotesWilliam Binning's last letter to his parents and his will, which the family pasted into the family Bible. This subsequently caused difficulties when the War Office were trying to tie up Williams affairs.

The letter is dated July 23rd 1916, but this could not have been the date as William was killed on the 24th April.
