Possessed of a particularly modest and retiring disposition. Lance-cor-poral Williams waa not cme of those to whom the adventurous aspect of the war struggle made great appeal; rather, he recognised the duty that all owe to the Empire, and in that spirit, he volunteered for active service. His occupation brought him into touch -with many paople, and throughout the StrathTaieri district, the tribute paid to his memory is that of having been a worthy son, a faithful friend, ami a gentleman of untarnished honour. Private Michael Alexander Hoynihan, reported missing on October 17 1917, but, by • latest advice, now supposed to have been killed in action in Franoe, was the second son of Mr Wm. Moynihan, farmer, of Ngapuna.. He was n. native of Sutton, and was educated at Sutton, and at the Christian Brothers' School. Dunedin. On leaving school he returned to Strath-Taieri, where he worked on his father's farm at Ngapuna, till the time of his enlistment. He left New Zealand with the 23rd Reinforcements, and could have been but a short time in Franoe, when he was called upon to make the supreme sacrifice. Private Moynihan waa very popular, and took a keen interest in sport of every kind. At one time he was a member of the Strath-Taieri Rugby Fool ball team. He w&3 a dutiful son, loyal and dependable in every way, and much respected by all who knew him. He was 24 years of age.
