Dear Sir,
20th (Light) Division
Battlefield Memorial at Langemarck.
———————————–
The unveiling of this memorial will take place on Whit Sunday, June 5th 1927. Major General Sir W. Douglas Smith, K.C.B., K.C.V.O., has consented to perform the ceremony.
The Secretary of the Memorial Committee will be very glad to hear from any members of the Division or the relatives or friends (ladies or gentlemen) of those connected with it who may wish to attend.
For the convenience of those travelling to Belgium for this ceremony arrangements have been made (with Messer. Cook & Son Ltd) for a special party at an inclusive charge covering all travelling and hotel expenses. Full particulars, itinerary and application forms are enclosed. Provisional reservations of accommodation has already been made, but it is most important for the Secretary to hear as soon as possible from anyone wishing to join this party. As accommodation will only be definitely reserved by the Agents on receipt of payment, applications should be accompanied by a remittance (cheques payable to Major A.G. Brace and crossed).
Should unforeseen circumstances subsequently prevent anyone from making the journey money paid will be refunded, less only a small percentage deducted for Agents expenses.
Further particulars and details of the Ceremony will be posted to those who signify their intention of attending.
Yours sincerely
ALAN G. BRACE
