LATE SAPPER MOORE-JONES.
A tribute to the memory of the late Sapper Horace Moore-Jones and to all those returned 6oldiers who had died during the year, was paid at the annual
meeting of the Auckland Returned Soldiers' Association last evening. A reference to deceased comrades in the annual report stated that during the year the association had lost through death 56 members, among whcm was Sapper H. Moore-Jones, whose heroic death at Hamilton in endeavouring to save the TTves of others was worthy of the recognition of every soldier. In every case the association had taken part in funeral arrangements, and floral tributes had been sent to relatives.
The president, Mr. E. W. rhder, said he wanted to refei particularly to the death of Sapper Moore-Jones, whose death was such as Ihey would aU expect a returned so'dier to meet. At the president's suggestion, those present stood in silence in honour of the memory of all those members who had died since the last annual meeting.
