Photograph of Sam Forrest
« on: Thursday 27 April 17 08:58 BST (UK) »
Could anyone please help. Today, I have been sent a newspaper cutting of my Great Great Uncle Sam who was killed in action 100 years ago this week. Would anyone be kind enough just to clean it up for me? I would be so grateful.

In an effort to conserve what little hair I have left, defeat has been accepted.
If a task is once begun never leave it till it's done. Be the labor great or small, do it well or not at all.

I take my hat off to all the above....these half tones risk making me lose the will to live after 10 minutes.  :)
