In Remembrance

William Osborne 1897-1918

Compiled and copyright © Paula & Dave Kennington 2008

William was born in Lawhitton in 1897. His parents were Thomas and Emma Osborne. His father was a Carpenter. On leaving school, William went to work for Mr John Wills of Trelinnoe Farm, South Petherwin as a Farmworker. He enlisted with the Duke of Cornwall’s Light Infantry as a Pri- vate (Regimental No. 240696) serving with the 1st/5th Battalion.

William was killed in action during the German spring offensive at the Somme on March 21st, 1918 aged 21. At the time of his death, his parents were residing at Penscombe Cross, Lezant. His body was never identified but his name is commemorated on Pozieres Memorial, France. He is also commemorated on the Lezant War Memorial.

William is one of twelve men from WW1 who are commemorated on the Lezant War Memorial at Landue. A further three men who fell in WW2 are also commemorated. You can read more about all their lives here launcestonthen.co.uk/index.php/the-parishes/lezant/

The Free library in the Phone Box

After a closure lasting over 6 months, I’m happy to announce that we can reopen the Phone Box in Trekenner with some Covid safety features in place.

There will be a box on the floor where you can leave your donated or returned items. On the shelf there will be a bottle of sanitiser and we ask that you use it before you handle the books and after your have finished. A notice will remind you to do this when you visit.

It’s also tribute to Godfrey Holter’s craftsmanship that the box has weathered the closure and lack of attention very well. The only difference being a large number of spiders webs! They have been removed.

I’m glad that as Autumn kicks in and the days are getting shorter we can once again use the Box for stocking up on reading to get us through the next 6 months. Happy reading everyone!

Lesley Buscombe found this bag buried in a field in Lower Trebullett. After soaking for several days in water and softener it was revealed to be a beautiful crochet purse with silver plate clasp. Lesley thought pos- sibly 1940s, discussion on the Lawrence House Museum Facebook page suggested it might be even older, Edwardian. It is amaz- ing that the bag is so well preserved consid- ering the circumstances in which it was found.
