  • 14 Sep 1898: Upper Beaconsfield.
    On Friday night a most successful concert was held in the Assembly Hall, at which the audience was large and highly appreciative. The affair was originated to raise the wherewithal to provide prizes for the children attending the local State school, and the result should be gratifying to all concerned. The children sang se veral numbers, of a class much superior to those usually given, and to Mr. Elcoate, their teacher, a special word of praise is due. The programme included the following items :-Piano solo, "Country life," Miss Alice Renfree; song, "The lost chord," Miss G. Orgill; skirt dance Miss Elsie Rosa ; song, " Barney O'Hea, Mrs. Titcher (encored); song, '"To horse," Mr. Elcoate; club swinging, Miss Connie Martyn (very heartily received); duet, " Palashki's banner," Miss G. Orgill and Mr. Elcoate; skirt dance and Highland fing, Miss Fraser; song, "The clang of the wooden shoon," Master Elcoate (of St. Paul's choir); piano duet, "Mazeppa, Miss Ella Stevens and Miss Halleur; song, " When they put him in trousers," Miss Connie Martyn (encored); song, "Eternal rest," Mrs.Titcher; song, "The old brigade," Master Elcoate; duet "Larboard Watch," very well sung by Messrs. Elcoate" and Fraser. Messrs R.R . Bain and Fraser supplied the comic element, and, judging by the frequent encores and hearty applause, they pleased the audience immensely. Most of the accompaniments were played by Mr Manger, who materially assisted in the success of the songs. At the termination of the concert a social dance was held, at which there was a very good attendant Under the able direction of Mr. Woodley everything passed off happily, and terpaichore was indulged in with zest. Mr. and Mrs. Woodley provided the music.11

  • 9 Jun 1915: SHELLING THE TURKISH FORTS
    Lieutenant W. D. S. Manger, 5th Battalion, A.I.F., writes from hospital:
    "It is rather difficult to write, as my hand is slightly injured, but I will do my best. Well, we got into it at last. We left Mena on Sunday, April 4, and embarked at Alexandria. From there we went to Lemnos, and anchored in Mudros Bay. Owing to everything not being favourable, we had to wait there two weeks, but it was a pleasant stay there all the same. It was a great sight to see the harbour, which was crowded with ships. The Queen Elizabeth was lying quite close. We left there on Saturday evening, April 24, and sailed to our appointed meeting-places, of which there were many. Early on Sunday morning we sailed for the Dardanelles. The 3rd Brigade landed in destroyers at 4 a.m., and drove the Turks from their trenches with bayonet; then the Second and First Brigades landed. The Turks were shelling the landing parties with shrapnel, but did not do much damage. It was a wonderful sight to see the fleet shelling the Turkish inland forts, but the Turks' guns were too well hidden. As soon as we landed, we had to rush up a very steep hill, and support the 3rd Brigade, who had driven the enemy back about two miles. Then we came up, and charged them back about a mile further, but paid for our boldness, as their guns caught us in enfilade, and then we found out what shrapnel was like.
    SHOT BY SNIPER.
    The Turks were very hard to find, as the country was very bushy. I knelt to use my glasses, and a sniper shot me in the leg, which broke my thigh. A poor chap who came to help me was also shot. I lay there, and the firing-line advanced. I had been lying there about a quarter of an hour, when I received another in the leg, and 10 minutes later another in the thigh. Unfortunately I had to be there till night, but I spent my time in making a barricade of discarded kits, which saved me from more bullets. At nightfall, four men gave me a hand, and carried me out. We had not proceeded far before we found ourselves surrounded by Turks. The men dropped me, and said they would come with help. I crawled into a big bush, and lay there. The Turks were that close I could touch them. All night long I lay there under fire, and it was hell. The machine-guns were something awful. In the morning the fleet started bombarding, and they gave it to them, but their guns were hard to find. The sound of the Queen Elizabeth's guns was awful, and made me jump every time. About 4 o'clock our chaps started again, and charged the Turks off the ridge they were holding, and drove them on to the one on which I was hiding. I was between two fires. The Turks had a machine-gun within two yards of me, and I was unable to do anything, as I had lost all my equipment. Then our machine-guns started on this one, and I can tell you, I had to bury my head in the ground, but luckily I was not hit, although hundreds of bullets passed all around me.
    TURKS DID NOT WAIT.
    Then our fellows charged again and drove them away. There was one thing about the Turks they never waited for our bayonets, but cleared. As soon as our chaps had occupied the ridge I was on, the Turkish guns started again and they swept the valley from one end to the other, and they could shoot, too. Then we brought up two guns to silence them but our fellows did not stay there long as their fire was too deadly, and every shot seemed to land on our guns, so they moved out. In the artillery duel, I received a shrapnel wound on the arm and damaged the thumb and second finger. About 7 o'clock three men came along and dragged me out and took me back to the doctor who put my leg into temporary splints with a rifle and flag. I was thankful to be in, as I had been in the field and under fire for 34 hours. From there they carried me down the hills in a water-proof sheet to a dressing station, where I was put on a stretcher. I was going to stop there till the morning but the Turkish snipers found us out, and wounded a Red Cross chap, so they carried me down to the beach—a journey altogether, from where I was found, of three miles. I reached there in safety, and they put me on board and shipped me to Alexandria, and am now in a German hospital and have German nurses. Funny, is it not? But they are awfully nice, and it is the best hospital outside Europe. I am getting along splendidly, Major Fethers was killed. Lieutenant Les Moore shot in the neck now convalescent: Captain Flockhart received one in the mouth, which knocked out three teeth. A very large number of wounded, but many recover quickly. The German snipers are very cruel, and often lie hidden in a hole covered with bushes till our fellows pass; then they start shooting them in the back. The Australians, if they catch them, give them no chance. The Turks were mutilating the dead, also killing and mutilating the wounded, so our boys give them no quarter at all. Thanks very much for your cable.
    "Here at least for two months, worse luck."10
  • 26 Jul 1915: First Death in England. Captain W. D. S. Manger.
    Captain W D S Manger, of the 5th Battalion of the 2nd Infantry Brigade (who left Australia as platoon commander of B company, has died at the Wandsworth (Eng.) Hospital. His body was interred at Wandsworth which is a suburb of London with full military honours. Major Buckley (military advisor to the Commonwealth High Commissioner) represented Sir George Reid at the funeral, which was also at attended by several wounded Australian officers.
    Captain William Douglas Stewart Manger died in the 3rd Military Hospital (London). He was the only son of Mr and Mrs Douglas Manger of Aston, Clifton Hill. The news came as a great shock as only on Monday last his parents received a cable message from him saving: - "Arrived London. Leg badly set. Night operation. Doing well".
    He was for seven years in military training and was lieutenant in the 51st Regiment commanded by Colonel Courtney. He took the keenest interest in his work and was a very promising young officer. He was wounded at the Dardanelles after severe fighting in which Major Flockhart (in a letter received this mail) says he did splendid work until wounded by a sniper.
    He was wounded no fewer than six times having his thigh fractured and wounded and the thumb and third finger of his right hand injured, and was lying for 34 hours under fire.11
