Liverpool Police - P.C. 76B Green

Liverpool Echo 12 March 1915

UNFINISHED LETTER

TWENTIETH LIVERPOOL CONSTABLE TO FALL AT THE FRONT.

The friends of Ex-police-constable 76B Green, who was a bombardier in the 41st battalion R.F.A. have received intimation of his death following operations. He was severely wounded in both knees and one arm on February 19 and was removed to the Military Hospital, Boulogne. He died on March 9. During his two years’ service in the Liverpool City police he had made himself highly respected by comrades and officers, and he was a special favourite amongst the athletic members, being a most scientific boxer. He is the twentieth Liverpool policeman to give up his life for his King and country. In his last moments he was engaged writing to his sweetheart, his nurse having sent on to her the unfinished letter.
