I have the personal guarantee of the doctor who attended him (Dr. Ross, of New Plymouth) that he did not regain consciousness. Major Cox entrusted me personally with the duties of his burial. That evening I called for volunteers, and the whole of his company was forthcoming. We restricted it to a few of his most intimate friends, all ranks being represented. Under heavy shrapnel fire, but under cover of darkness, we buried dear old Roy with full soldier's funeral rites and honours under the hill overlooking the sea," adding, "Roy was the first in our battn. to receive a commission on his merits from the ranks. Having speedily proved his worth as a soldier he was on 8 May promoted to Coy. Sergt.-Major, and on 29 May was appointed Lieut., being transferred to the Ruahine Coy. on 2 June. Alas! his chance of further distinguishing himself was soon cut off, for in his first action as Lieut. he was, 3 June, sadly accounted for. It was at Courtney's Post he gave his life for his country." =CARLETON, THOMAS=, Private, No. 12491, 1st Battn. Coldstream Guards, _s._ of Patrick Carleton, of 7, Wellington Place, Enniskillen, co.
