Bishop University Mitre 1919
Late in the summer the sad news arrived of the death of Capt. Roddy Lemieux, Arts ’20, son of the Hon. Rodolph Lemieux, of Ottawa. The news came as a great shock to all of Roddy’s many friends in Lennoxville. A boy of high ideals, of sunny and amiable disposition, he endeared himself to all with whom he came in contact, both fellow-students and professors. He went overseas as Lieutenant, under Lieut.-Col. Blondin’s command, when scarcely eighteen years of age, and that he conducted himself as a man and a soldier is shown by the fact that he was promoted to a Captaincy on the field, and was recommended for the Military Cross for gallant conduct. His words, when dying, “Je me suis conduit comme un homme", touching in their simplicity, reveal the brave soul that has “Gone West.”
