Great War Roll of Honour (1915)

Harryville Presbyterian Church, Ballymena

The following text is transcribed from the Ballymena Weekly Telegraph of 15th May 1915.

 


 

In our last issue we gave the roll of honour of West Church, Ballymena, setting forth the names of the young men belonging to that congregation who had responded to the call of King and country. This week we append the roll of honour of Harryville Presbyterian Church, of which Rev. W. H. Sloane is the esteemed minister, and from this it will be seen that two of them have already paid the full price of their patriotism, and have given their lives in a great and good cause. We append in each instance the full name, home address, and regiment or ship:--
