Overview
Memorial Certificate for a brave life given in the Great War - Private Thomas Walter Chiplin, Auckland Infantry Regiment.
"He whom this scroll commemorates was numbered among those who at the call of King and Country, left all that was dear to them, endured hardness, faced danger, and finally passed out of the sight of men by the path of duty and self-sacrifice, giving up their own lives that others might live in freedom. Let those who come after see to it that his name be not forgotten."
