    In a Parish Register by Hedley Lucas

    A yellowing page, dull script
    Of names, yet hidden breath
    Of soul that has slipped
    The dimmed of death,
    And stirred what is with name.
    O mortality,
    Now living word, what of their fame,
    And joy, and agony?
    Deeper than the printer's mark,
    Deeper than ink or page,
    They have writ in the dark
    A heritage.

    In 1911 census, aged 30, living with parents at Chavenage, Mornington Rd, Sale, Cheshire. Occupation General Clerk. Father was a foreman porter.
