William Hughes's Story.

Birkenhead News  16 September 1916

Came Home to Die.

Neston Soldier’s Sad Fate.

It was with great regret that the news was received of the death of Private W. H. Tozer, which occurred at a hospital in Glasgow. He was the youngest son (aged 20), of Mr. and Mrs. T. Tozer, of High Street, Neston, and joined the R.A.M.C. twelve months ago. He was afterwards transferred to the London Regt., and had been on active service three months when he was taken ill and brought to this country, where, despite every care and attention, he passed away on Thursday. Although of a quiet disposition, he was highly esteemed, and his death at the early age of 20 years has caused much sorrow to a wide circle of friends and acquaintances.
