IN MEMORY OF...

...THOSE TOWN SERVANTS WHO DIED ON THIS DAY

November 13

1914
Aged 21

Billy BREWER
Billy, from Langley Burrell, was a weaver by trade and a private in the Wiltshire Regiment. Gunned down at Hooge near Ypres just a few weeks into the Great War, Billy was given just one run-out with the first team a week before Christmas 1913, after hitting 11 goals for the reserves - four of which came in a 7-1 win against Peterborough.
