Chappell E R Lt Royal Garrison Artillery

SECOND LIEUT. ERNEST ROWLAND CHAPPELL, Royal Garrison Artillery, became a member of The Stock Exchange in 1909 and was with the firm of Richardson and Co.

He met his death just before the Armistice while on duty with his battery outside Loos, being mortally wounded by a shell. His Commanding Officer wrote to his widow: ” Your splendid husband stuck to his guns and did his job when others less stout- hearted might have left them after the first salvo of shells came.”
