Hi, Sorry, I hadn't forgot about you  :)
I wasn't able to go to the Echo Library until today but unfortunately I cannot find anything in the archives going back to 1924. The earliest Echo I could find was 1939.
I will make a few enquiries to see where I can get any later copies but I'm not holding my breath. Sorry.

Hi I Will,

thanks for looking. It was a long shot, guess I'll never know where he's buried!   :(

thanks again

Just to update, I now know where he was buried.
I 'bit the bullet' and sent for the log book for the ship he was on, and it states that he is buried in the Bordeaux Protestant Cemetery on 18th June 1924. His accident was on 13th June and he died without regaining conciousness.
I don't think there would be a marker and if there was I couldn't go to see it, but its great to finally know where he ended up.
