Lt. George William Taylor, R.F.A., died in France on 9 November 1917 of wounds received in battle on 2nd November, aged twenty-five. He was educated at Lees, Hawtrey's, Eton and at Trinity College, Cambridge. He took many prizes at Eton and captained his lower boy football team. While at Cambridge he coxed the Third Trinity boat in 1911, (all the crew served in WWI, with, at the time this caption was written, only two survivors). He was in the Cambridge Artillery and was in in one of the first Gazettes, being appointed an officer on 15 August 1914. After serving in France, at Suvla Bay and in the Salonika campaign, he lay for many months suffering from sysentery at the Royal Free Hospital and while there, unaided, he read for his final Bar exam which he took and passed while barely convalescent, becoming a member of the Inner Temple. On returning to the front he was more than once wounded, and on one occasion he brought in a wounded officer to safety after having been hit himself.
