Roll
of Honour. It will be remembered that some little time ago one of the sons of
Mr Philip Luce of Oxford Cottage, St Ouens was killed in action and the family
will have the sympathy of all our readers when we state that the eldest son, Sapper
P J Luce of the Royal Engineers, has now been called upon to make the supreme
