”It is such noble sacrifices as your son's,” wrote a well-known MP, ”that almost alone redeem the horror of this world-wide catastrophe”

From M Marsillac, London correspondent of _Le Journal_ (Paris):

What a truly nificent spirit was shown in that letter of your son! Indeed, ho reo forth into Eternal Peace by such a noble and luminous road

Mr Alexander Mackintosh, its Parlia in the _British Weekly_, said:

Lieutenant Paul Jones, as an occasional visitor, was fa ifts, a scholar and an athlete, as modest as he was brave, and the Gallery has a sense of personal loss Yet it bids his father say, in the beautiful apostrophe which Rustum puts into the mouth of the snow-headed Zal:

”O son! I weep thee not too sore, For willingly, I know, thou met'st thine end!”

Mr Arnold White (”Vanoc”) in the _Referee_ for August 12, 1917:

Just before his death Lieutenant Paul Jones wrote a letter which deserves record on iiven a new lustre to the name of Paul Jones

Messages of condolence were received fro and Queen, the Prime Minister, Cabinet and ex-Cabinet Ministers, the Arymen, London and provincial pressmen, scholars, soldiers, labour-leaders, newspaper and journalistic societies and political associations Letters cadom, but also from France, Palestine, South Africa, India and Canada These sympathetic expressions from far and near, from the exalted and the humble, prove, if proof were needed, that the memory of brave soldiers like Paul Jones, who have sacrificed their lives in a great cause, is cherished with gratitude and reverence by their countrymen

They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old; Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn

At the going down of the sun and in theWe will remember them
