Harry Ingham Hodskinson (20), East Lancashire Field ambulance. He enlisted in the R.A.M.C. unit raised by Dr. Callam in November 1914. By calling a photographer, he was an apprentice with Mr. Hartley, Burnley, and afterwards worked for Mr. Moffitt, Accrington. Several relatives are with the forces. One of them, John Wm. Ingham, was killed at the battle of Mons.
