      A memorial service to the memory of Mr. W.H.C. Trousdell, son of Captain and Mrs. Trousdell, of Maidstone, who was one of the missing passengers of the torpedoed "Falaba," was held at Boxley Church on Wednesday afternoon. Mr. Trousdell, who held a high appointment in the Colonial Civil Sercive, was returning to his station in Nigeria, after a few weeks' leave. There was a large attendance at the church, including several well-known county families, and amongst the family mourners was Miss Sibyl Thesiger, Mr. Trousdell's fiancee.
