This much remember of me

World War I, Battle of the Somme, 1916. A British second lieutenant, Hugh Freston, of the 3rd Battalion, Royal Berkshire Regiment, joined his battalion near Albert six days before Christmas 1915. In the trenches facing La Boisselle on 24 january 1916 he was inspecting a dugout that had been heavily shelled, and was talking to some stretcher-bearers, when more shells fell he was killed. He was twenty-four years old. In one of his poems he had written:
After I am dead
And have become part of the soil of France,
This much remember of me:
I was a great sinner, a great lover, and life puzzled me very much.
Ah love! I would have died for love!
Love can do so much, both rightly and wrongly
It remembers mothers, and little children,
And lots of others things.
O men unborn, I go now, my work unfinished!
I pass on the problem to you: the world will hate you: be brave!
Second Lieutenant Freston is buried in Bécourt Military Cemetery on the outskirts of Albert.
