Referring to the heavy casualty list this morning, the Prime Minister spoke feelingly of the number who have fallen. "The lives of "many' of our bravo men, such as those whose names are mentioned in the list of casualties this morning," he said, ''is part of the price of Empire which wo are being called upon to pay. The State again mourns for its dead, for those who have given their' lives on behalf of their fellow-citizens, and for the honour of the nation, and our hearts go out in sympathy to the relatives and friends of those who have fallen, to the widows and orphans, to the parents and sisters and brothers of the gallant soldiers who died for Britain's sake and whose remains lie to-day in graves of their comrades' making on the bleak hillside of the Gallipoli Peninsula, far from home and friends, it may be, but never to be forgotten by the people of this country. It is for us who are left behind, not only in this country bu*t in the other dominions of the Empire, to see that the great undertaking in which our men lost their lives is carried through to a 'satisfactory ending, so that the sacrifices which have been made shall not have been made in vain." Lieutenant Raymond Alexander Reid Lawry (Canterbury Battalion), wounded n second time, was' previously wounded on Juno 1, being hit by shrapnel bullets in the left forearm and upper arm. Lieutenant Lawry, who is the second surviving son of the, Rev. S. Lawry, of Christchurch, was born .in Ashburton, and will be 24 years of age next month. Ho was educated at the Christchurch Boys' High School, and subsequently took both law and art courses at Canterbury College. He held a commission in the Ist (Canterbury) Regiment when the war broke out, and when the Main Expeditionary Force was raised he was posted to the 2nd (South Canterbury) Company of the Canterbury Infantry Battalion as a lieutenant. Lieutenant Lawry was a very fine elocutionist, and represented Canterbury College in the inter-varsity debating competitions.
