  • Obituary

    Sorrow reigns at No 40, Pinfold -street, Loughborough, where only seven months ago was a scene of great rejoicing, for ex - Private Sidney Smith, who in February was repatriated after nearly five years as a prisoner of war in Germany, died in Loughborough Hospital on Saturday. When Mr., Smith arrived home from Germany, waiting to greet him was his widowed mother who had been an invalid for many years, shortly afterwards she died. He leaves a wife, formerly Miss, Violet Coles, Claycross, Derbyshire, to whom he was married only six months ago. There are also sisters and brothers. Sid was a true soldier, being in the Territorial Army since1934. He was taken prisoner in April 1940, in Norway, and during the period of his captivity made no less than nine attempts to escape, once succeeding in getting nearly halfway across the Baltic in a motor launch, before having the ill luck to be picked up by a German Cruiser.
