NEWS ITEM in Jersey Evening Post
of Wednesday 23 August 1916
Roll of Honour. Private Stanley George
Bailey of the Machine Gun Corps, having been seriously
wounded during the big advance in July was moved to
England but unfortunately his injuries were so severe
that despite all that medical skill could suggest he
passed away and was buried with full Military Honours
at Mutley in Plymouth. The deceased soldier was a son
of Mr T Bailey of 17 Garden Lane and had been at the
Front since 1914. He was also a brother of Private Yarcombe
Bailey formerly of the 3rd Battalion RMIJ and now of
the Army Service Corps. The deceased enlisted in the
Hampshire Regiment and was later transferred to the
Machine Gun Corps. We offer the bereaved family our
sincere sympathy.
