It was at placid Pangbourne that, following his death from wounds in a London hospital, Pte. Harry Clarke was laid to rest in the shadow of the Parish Church, and like Sir John Moore of old "left alone with his glory". The case of Pte. Clarke was typical of hundreds in the loyal county. A reservist, at the outbreak of war he was employed in Pangbourne, went straight to his depot, donned his uniform and but a few weeks later sacrificed his life in the national cause, subscribing to the resolve recorded in the porch of Pangbourne Church"This England never did, nor never shall, lie at the proud foot of a conqueror".
Funeral of Pte. Harry Clarke, King's Royal Rifles, who died with the song Tiperary on his lips.
