David Bastow

9th November 1917, aged 22.
Plot VIII. I. 111.

Son of David and Susannah Bastow, of 110, New Hall St., Burnley.

David's parents received the following letter from the Matron of the 83rd General Hospital at Boulogne:


"I'm sorry there is very little I can tell you about Pte. David Bastow. He was wounded on the 7th I believe, and admitted to hospital on the 8th in a dying condition. He was badly wounded in the jaw, legs and hands, and only lived a few hours after admission. Everything possible was done for him and he had every care and attention, but his injuries were so serious and his condition so critical that from the first we had little hope of his recovery. I am so sorry we could not save him for you but we tried to make his last hours as peaceful as possible."

Prior to enlisting, David was employed as a weaver by Lee's Brothers of Elm Street, Burnley. His brother, Fred, was also killed in the war, his body was not identified after the war and he is commemorated on the Tyne Cot Memorial in Belgium.
