This is an entry in a burial register.

John Hewson
Eglington

(This is the line I can not read)

(Unable to read this line either)

Private
           16th Lancers

Hopefully some one can help with the two lines I can not read.  Thanks in advance.

It says Eglinton. As you have spelled it Eglington, I think you must already have seen the Probate calendar entry?

Checked the name on the BMD web page.

All I have to do now is try and identify his grave in the military cemetery at Shorncliffe.
