Sergeant Griffith, who was for eight years a schoolmaster at St Anne’s School, Stanley, has been killed in action. He was well known as a member of the Aliens Rugby Football Club, and had obtained much repute as an artiste: he was a pupil of the Liverpool School of Art. A comrade describes his death as follows: “Some of the platoon had been mown down by a German machine-gun, which was enfilading from the right flank. Sergeant Griffith mustered a few men, who, to his shout of ‘Come on Boys’ dashed at the enemy and wiped the squad out, not without, however, the loss of the sergeant, who fell mortally wounded. He was noticed to be lying alongside a German officer. Brave little Bob Griffith! I take my cap off to his memory.”
