A representative Meeting, with the Rev. R. Coad Pryor in the Chair, was held in the Church Room, on the 22nd inst., to consider the question of a War Memorial. A general feeling was expressed in favour of the provision by Hampton Hill people of a memorial in Hampton Hill.

This would be for those resident in, or connected with, Hampton Hill, who have fallen, or may fall, in the War, in preference to one memorial for the whole Hampton District, and it was decided that when the appropriate time arrives later on to collect subscriptions and take other steps to give effect to this plan. A further Meeting should be called to elect a Committee and settle details. It was also arranged that in the meantime a small sub-Committee should keep the matter in view and receive any promises of subscriptions for payment later on that any well-wishers of this local scheme might desire to make at the present time. Promises of support may be made to the acting Hon. Treasurer, Mr. A. J. Kestin, Isledon, Wellington Road, or through any of the District Visitors.
