Memorial avenue honoring fallen soldiers at Lexton
Mr W B Simpkin of the A N A led efforts to secure council support for planting trees in memory of brave soldiers. Dr John G Robertson donated the trees and locals praised the project at a public meeting. An honor board was chosen to name the trees, with a large gathering and thanks to volunteers and caterers. The ceremony featured remarks from Captain Ross and local officials, followed by a planting procession and a list of attendees from the patriotic league and A N A branch. Cattle and sheep markets are then noted with prices and volumes for Thursday.
