Dear Sir
I received the roll of honour in reference to the war graves my husband No 732c private Alfonso Juan Stweart Isbel 1st Machine Gun Battalion killed in action on September 21st 1918 I would like to do something for his grave if I knew where it was killed in action was the message that's all I have had nothing out of his pockets not even his dis so I knot know what to think. A friend of mine Mrs McCarty got all her husbands belongings and I have not received anything so if you can find out any information about him for me I would only be to pleased to do something for his grave.
Yours truly
Mary Isbel Widow of private Isbel
