Committee Meeting held May 20th 1919
The Treasurer reported
collection to date as £55.00.
It was decided to inscribe on front of the Memorial -
"In Memory of the Parishioners of Eton Wick and Boveney whose names are
recorded on this cross They gave their lives for their Country in the Great War
1914-1918 passing from the strife of the world into the peace of God" and
beneath the Plinth "Their names liveth for Evermore".
Proposed Mr
Percy, seconded Mr Burfoot that the lettering on Memorial Front be raised and
the names of the fallen be incised and leaded. Agreed.
Also agreed that Mr Nutt
be asked to give estimate for use of Hopton Wood Stone.
This is an extract from Their Names Shall Be Carved in Stone
and published here with grateful thanks to the author Frank Bond.
