The Centennial Inheritance

The letter from the International Committee of the Red Cross Geneva Prisoner of War Agency to the Ottoman Red Crescent dated May 19, 1917, requests an investigation into John Kellie, prisoner number 49972 of the Royal Field Artillery 88, held as a British prisoner of war in Yozgat. Initially, his family was informed of his excellent health, followed by notification of his earlier death. Resolution of these discrepancies and providing comfort to his grieving family is requested due to inconsistencies regarding the information and dates of his whereabouts, with indications of two different camps.
