much esteemed. He was buried with full honours, and his grave is in a
wood with others. There is a cross at the head, and I shall do all I
can to keep his grave clean.” The doctor wrote: “A more unselfish boy
one could not find; always thinking of the well-being of others.... I
chose his resting place. A plain wood cross has been erected ‘In loving
Memory of 2nd Lieut. J. Hutcheson. Killed in action,’ and the motto ‘To
live in hearts we leave behind, is not to die.’”

“leading and encouraging his men,” 10 May following; _unm._ Buried
in Anzac Cove. Lieut.-Col. F. Luard (himself killed in action, 13 July,
1915), commanding Portsmouth Battn., wrote: “It may comfort you to know
that ever since he joined the Battn. he had been conspicuous for good
work, and that in consequence I had come to look upon him as one of the
most promising and reliable of the younger officers. During the very
severe fighting which took place on the four days before his death,
and of which the brunt was borne by his company, he had shown extreme
gallantry, and had come through scatheless, cheery, and full of spirit
up to the last, enjoying every moment of his active responsibilities”;
and Lieut. S. D. Wilmot-Sitwell (himself killed in action, 13 July,
1915): “On 10 May, early in the morning, the Battn. was turned out, and
had to charge up a steep slope. The whole of the ridge at the top was
swept by rifle and machine-gun fire. John led his platoon up the slope,
and was, I believe, the first to reach the top, but I was further to
the left myself. When he got to the top he turned to encourage his men
to a last burst, when he was hit in the back by either a rifle or a
machine-gun bullet. He was picked up by a stretcher-party, and died
while being carried down to the dressing station. He was buried by the
side of another officer who was hit while standing alongside him just
before. A rough cross marks the place where they are buried.” Mrs.
Stockley, wife of his Capt., also wrote: “I am writing for my husband,
who was severely wounded on the same day as your son was so very
unfortunately killed, and he wishes me to tell you how very well he did
commanding his platoon, during a most trying three days in the trenches
under practically incessant fire the whole time. My husband was always,
from the time he joined his company, very pleased with the work your
son did. He always showed great keenness in his work, and was a most
promising young officer, always cheerful and bright and eager, and very
popular with his men. The night before he was killed he and Mr. Fulton
and my husband were sharing the same dug-out together, and they were
both in such brave spirits in spite of all they had been through, that
my husband says he could not help being proud of having such officers
serving with him. One of your son’s last acts was to try and help my
husband after he was wounded, but of course he had to go on and look
after his men.”
