Notes:

Watch of Boy Killed in War Returned to Father After 16 Years

A poignant war echo of 16 years ago was heard in Kitchener by a father who gave his son to the allied cause. Sixteen years ago Emanuel Pequegnat enlisted, being one of the first 18 to go from Kitchener. When he left his father gave him a watch engraved, "From Father to Mannie." The young lad must have had a presentiment of death for before one of the first big engagements in which his battalion participated he gave the watch to a friend, asking that in the event he did not return, it be returned to his father. "Mannie" went over the top and fell a victim in no man's land.

The Pequegnat Clock Company received a letter from R.C. Spindlove of North Edmonton, Alta., in which the story was revealed to the Pequegnat family for the first time.

In the letter Mr. Spindlove says: "It always has been my aim to find his parents and return to them the watch he gave me before going into battle. All I knew was that his father was a watchmaker in the East and ever since the war I have been trying to locate him.
