Extract from London Gazette 27 October 1914, page 29.

Private Sidney Henry Lowry, from the Inns of Court Officers Training Corps, to be Captain (temporary). Dated 28th October, 1914.

Extract from the Stock Exchange Memorial Book:

CAPTAIN SIDNEY HENRY LOWRY, M.C., Hertfordshire Regiment, was the son of Henry Lowry and was born in 1888. He was educated at Charterhouse and Pembroke College, Cambridge. He became a member of the Stock Exchange in 1913 and a partner in his father's firm, Lowry Bros., about the same time.

He had been a member of his school Cadet Corps and the Cambridge O.T.C. and on the outbreak of war went into training with the Inns of Court O.T.C. He was given his captaincy in the Hertfordshire Regiment in November 1914 and went to the Front in the following January. For some time his Regiment was brigaded with the Brigade of Guards. He served with his Regiment in France for over two years, during which time he saw much heavy fighting and gained the Military Cross. During the spring of 1917 he went through a training course at Aldershot and was recommended for the post of Second in Command of a battalion.

Returning to the front soon afterwards, he was killed at the Battle of St. Julien on 31 July 1917, an action in which the Hertfordshire Regiment gained great distinction.

His Commanding Officer wrote: “Your son was killed in action, whilst gallantly leading his company against the final objective. I don't think a better officer or more gallant man is serving in the army. It is not only as a splendid officer but as a friend that we, who had the privilege of knowing him intimately, will always remember him."
