‘The Day of the Great Battle’ Important First Day of The Somme Diary of Lieutenant Ernest Pearson, 11th Notts & Derby Regiment, A5-sized Army Book 136, with his name written to the cover. The book has been used as a diary and is full of first-hand legible notes from 16th June to 27th July 1916.

At the back of the book is a poignant roll call of the strength of the battalions before and after 1st July 1916. The entry for the 1st day of the Somme ‘July 1st ‘6.30am The Day of The Great Battle. Probably one of the greatest in history. The roar of the guns is incessant’ and ‘7.30 attack commences; 7.35 Infantry over Bosche front line.’. ‘…can see 16th HLI shooting Germans in the trenches’. ‘9.05, 9th Y&L in 3rd line, 8th KOYLI report enemy are on the run’. ‘10.05, No progress, both Brigades held up by machine gun fire’. ’11.30 Casualties very heavy’. ‘7.30pm, 70th Bde has been cut to pieces’. ‘8th Y&L went into action 22 officers 677 O.R. & came out 65 O.R.’ Pearson was seconded to the 97th and 70th Brigade Headquarters near Authuille Wood that epic day, recounting the preparations, the events of the day and its aftermath.

Campaign Medal Group of Six Covering Three Conflicts Over an Impressive 40 Year Period, Queens South Africa medal with clasps Cape Colony, Orange Free State and Transvaal, impressed naming, “13884 DR: G.J. LARKHAM A.S.C.”, Kings South Africa medal with 2 clasps, South Africa 1901 and South Africa 1902, “13884 CORPL G. LARKHAM A.S.C.”, 1914-15 Star medal, “13884 SJT. (A. C.S MJR) G.J. LARKHAM A.S.C.”, British War and Victory medals, “SS-13884 W.O.CL.2 G.J. LARKHAM A.S.C.” and Defence medal, unnamed as issued. Group mounted for wearing on pin back bar. Both Boer War medals and clasps are confirmed on the relevant rolls (No29 Company A.S.C). Great War medals are confirmed on the medal index card. George John Larkham was born in Deal, Kent and attested or service in the Oxfordshire Light Infantry in December 1892 and was discharged by purchase in January 1895. On 13th May 1898 he attested for the Army Service Corps and served through to his discharge on 28th December 1919, having completed almost 22 years which included 6 years and 5 months in South Africa and 3 years and 2 months overseas with the B.E.F. His records do not show any entitlement to any Long Service medal and this may be due to the fact that he was tried by Court Martial in January 1915 due to drunkenness on active service being reduced to the rank of Sergeant. On discharge he gave his intended place of residence as Basingstoke, Hampshire and 1939 he is recorded as being an Army Pensioner in Highclere, Hampshire with the additional responsibility of being an A.R.P. Warden, a responsibility that would have most likely qualified him for the Defence medal. 71 year old George Larkham died in the 2nd quarter of 1944.
