League Headquarters for the past nine years,

presented her with a silver inkstand bearing the
following inscription
to mrs. beryl
from
the committee of the ypres league

OBITUARY.
We very much regret to announce the death
of Capt. H. D. Hyams, M.C., a valued member
of the Executive Committee since the inaugura
tion of the League in 1920. We wish to express
our deepest sympathy with Mrs. Hyams in her
great bereavement.
A CORRECTION.
Mr. Henry Benson writes In my article,
Last Post at Ypres," which was reproduced
in the April issue of The Ypres Times from the
Nottingham Guardian," I regret that, by a
slip of the pen, I attributed its gift of the four
bugles, upon which the Post is sounded
each evening, to the Ypres League whereas,
of course, they were presented by The British
Legion. I hasten to rectify the error.
