Well Captain Mainwering l think Jones is doing a great thing for the men who fell in the Wars, we knew of in our time. So l say to you Tony well done. Now you are a lot older than you was at Goldings l don't think you would have done this in your early days and as you get older you become more of a man and that's due to your upbringing at Goldings. Many of us when we left went down many roads to find our place in life, in my case my place of work, l work to help other men learn a Trade in Carpentry all down to Mr Nutter, who he helped me in the carpenters shop l think Pinhead might have said, "look after him" as l had been in most trades, and l think Mr Ted Nutter might have been in the war he came to help all of us so what can one say. Well done Tony for what you are doing at the Waterford Cenotaph

- At my Cenotaph tomorrow

One of my many dear old friends from Goldings has reminded me of the sacrifice paid by Goldings Boys and Staff who gave their lives in conflicts around the world for their country.
And as he says we should pay our respect to this fact, so Tony Angell has had a wreath made and will be at Waterford Cenotaph tomorrow at 11'o' clock to present the wreath on our behalf. Can I just remind every one that when we became the new residents to Goldings a wreath was laid at Hertford’s Cenotaph in 1922 for the same reasons and included the many Barnardo boys and girls along with Staff who also paid the supreme sacrifice, not forgetting the Canadians, Australians, and Barnardo children around the world who gave the same sacrifice.
So just for a moment, pause to remember.
Well-done Tony Angell on all of our behalf
Footnote- Mr Battell, a very popular member of staff was killed by the clock tower in the early part of the Second World War as he made his way to the main house to make sure the boys were safe in a bombing raid, and is buried in Waterford Church.
