Although Private Cooke has some history given, I'm going to try this one and possibly locate a Canadian family. He is a man of conviction, like my grandfather, who served on the Western front for 4 years lifting the wounded... I like to think, they may have met in person, when time and circumstance led them to cross paths at YPRES in 1916.

Volunteered for the Princess Patricia's Canadian Volunteer force. Injured in 1916 Ypres hospitalised for 3 weeks in England returned to France and died 3 days later at Mount Sorrell with thousands of other Canadians. My cousins Ernest Body and Arthur Perrey born in Wittersham Kent left from Medicine Hat for France luckily both returned uninjured. Others Body's killed Major Edward 1918 and Arthur 1915. Remembered them all hear.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W._B._Yeats "William Butler Yeats (/ˈjeɪts/; 13 June 1865 – 28 January 1939) was an Irish poet and one of the foremost figures of 20th century literature. A pillar of both the Irish and British literary establishments, he helped to found the Abbey Theatre, and in his later years served as an Irish Senator for two terms."

Yeats arrived in New York, the start of a lecture tour of the U.S. and Canada, on January 24, 1920. In this photo, he holds a volume of William Blake, with a label from the London Library on St. James Square. query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?res=9504EED81F38E5... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Library

For Art Siegel: Yeats's 1893 edition of Blake's poetry is probably more responsible than anything else for Blake's status as a major figure in English literature. That's why the ending of W. H. Auden's poem "In Memory of W. B. Yeats" (1939) is written in the rhythm of Blake's "The Tiger." For anyone who may be interested: a photoshopped version of this image is viewable at theartpart.jonathanmorse.net/william-butler-yeats-contemp...
