NEWS ITEM in Jersey Evening Post
of Wednesday 15 May 1918
Roll of Honour. We regret to record the
death of another gallant Jersey Colonial, Private Henry
(Harry) Bryant of the Australians. This Islander left
Jersey many years ago and settled in the Commonwealth.
He joined up in December 1914 in Adelaide and was in
the thick of the fighting at Gallipoli and later on
the Somme. Though given a position at a rest camp he
willingly volunteered to rejoin his Battalion and in
the recent fighting sustained wounds from which he died
at the 15th Casualty Clearing Station on 11 April. The
late soldier, who was well known here, has two sisters
who reside in Scarborough, and to these and other members
of the family we extend our sincere sympathy.
