ITEM in Jersey Evening Post of Wednesday 20 December 1916
After Many Months Rifleman Martin Reported
Killed. For several months past nothing had been heard
of Rifleman Walter George Martin, one of the members
of the original gallant Jersey Company, and though for
a time it was hoped he might be a prisoner latterly
this hope had been given up and yesterday Mr J Chevalier
of the Belmont Hotel received official notification
that the Rifleman was killed in action on 30 July last.
Rifleman Martin was, up to the outbreak of war employed
as a driver by Le Quesne & Co and had a large circle
of friends who will regret to hear of his decease.
