The Funeral of the late Mr. Walter Carter, aged 31, son of Mr. H. Carter, of Albion-place, Rushden, whose death (as reported in last week's "Rushden Echo'') occurred yesterday week at 52, Guildford-street, Luton, took place at the Rushden Cemetery on Tuesday, having served for eleven months in France and having been demobilised, the late Mr. Carter learned motor engineering, and took up a position in Luton. As recently as Whitsuntide he had arranged to have a short outing with friends, but had to cancel the engagement owing to his sudden illness. Two doctors were called in and everything possible was done for Mr. Carter, but death supervened from haemorrhage.

At the funeral the Rev. H. K. Fry (Vicar of Higham Ferrers) officiated in the absence of the Rev. Ion Carroll. The body had been brought from Luton by motor hearse. The mourners were: Mr. H. D. Carter and Mrs. A. Tassell (father and aunt), Mr. and Mrs. E. E. Carter (brother and sister-in-law), Mr. H. C. Robinson and Miss G. L. Sirett (friend and fiancee), Mr. and Mrs. W. Tassell (cousins), Mr. P. Corbett and Mrs. A. Warner (friend and cousin), Mr. Roe (manager of the firm of Messrs. Dickenson and Adams, deceased's late employers). The coffin was of polished elm with brass furniture and bore the inscription "Walter Carter; died June 19th, 1019; aged 34." The remains were laid to rest in the grave of his brother (the late Mr. J. H. Carter). Amongst the floral tributes were two handsome wreaths, one from the firm of Messrs. Dickenson and Adams and one from the employees, amongst whom the deceased was a great favourite. The floral tributes were: With loving sympathy, from Percy, Joe, Jack, and Fred. In loving memory of Walter, from Uncle Charlie, Aunt Sarah and family.
