Leonard William Smith was my Great Uncle, and I have only recently found out that he was killed during the Great War, after discovering a book of Poems written by his father Arthur William Smith, the poem is printed above.
Leonard was a Company Scout, depicted by the badge on his right upper arm, and an N.C.O., and would therefore be going forward during any attack to find a path through the wire for his men.
Leonard was killed at Bucquoy, 6 1/2 miles W.N.W of Bapaume, on the 14th March 1917 age 21, and is buried in Shrine Cemetery Bucquoy, probably 500 yards from where he fell.
Lance, R-Hunterdon, is minority leader in the Senate, a house where members often behave as feudal lords over their regional domains, and egos can get so big that the 40-seat chamber can barely hold them.
Lance was named his successor in December, even though he was entering only his third year in the upper house after nearly a decade in the Assembly.
On the issues that often created the biggest rifts in the GOP, Lance voted for a repeal of the state's ban on assault rifles as an assemblyman in 1992 and against the 2002 law requiring "smart gun" technology be on all handguns sold in the state once it is perfected.
