Forest Hill

24 November 1915
School of Arts Hall, Railway Street, Forest Hill

The Dungarees moved on to Forest Hill for afternoon tea in School of Arts Hall on the 24 November 1915 where badges were presented to the volunteers by Miss G Logan—presumably a relative of former resident Major Thomas James Logan a member of the 2nd Light Horse Regiment who had died at Gallipoli in August 1915. A memorial service had been held in the hall for him. Major Logan’s name is the first on the Forest Hill War Memorial, erected in 1921. He had also served in the Boer War.
