Sunday 13th December 1914

Tunstill's Company suffered their third death in training, all of them arising from the outbreak of measles which had struck the Company whilst at Frensham (see 9th November). Harold Greenhow, who a few days earlier (see 11th December) had been reported as suffering from "a very bad attack" of pneumonia, died. He was 22 years old and had enlisted at Bolton-by-Bowland, where he had been working as a footman for Mr. Massey at Closes Hall. He was buried in the Military Cemetery at Aldershot.

Tunstill added his formal confirmation to the application of one of his original recruits, John Henry Hitchin, for a commission (see 5th December).
