Leverton - In loving memory of Driver J. Leverton, (2nd Canadian Division), killed in action, in France, October 26th 1916, aged 22 years. Thou hast but taken back that which Thou gavest, And o'er his short life we lovingly glance; Thine be the kingdom, the power and the glory, Though the grave of our darling is somewhere in France. - From Mother, Father, Sister, and Brothers Jim and Edward in France.
