Memorial
Capt. George Evelyn Tinling (RMC 1913-15) East Lancashire Regiment. Born April 15, 1895. At Highfield 1904-10. At R.M.C. 1913-15. Fell in action Oct. 4th, 1917. Second son of Mr. C.W. Tinling, of Montreal. George Tinling was wounded a year ago and while on furlough visited Highfield School. On that occasion he spoke to the boys and paid an eloquent tribute to those Old Boys whom he had met in France. He had lost many of his dearest friends and it is a consoling thought that he is now reunited with those whom he loved so well. He is commemorated on the Memorial Tablet at Hillfield-Strathallan College, the Memorial Arch at the Royal Military College of Canada, and in the First World War Book of Remembrance. -
