FRANÇAIS :
J'ai aperçu le Lakeside Cemetery à partir de la route 112 mais comme il n'y a pas d'accès de ce côté, je me suis rendu sur le chemin Bloomfield où sont situés les accès au cimetière. Il y a plus d'une catégories de waymark pour lesquelles je cherche de bons sujets et quelle ne fut pas ma surprise de découvrir celui-ci.

La pierre tombale de Frank Bentley dit qu'il est mort au combat sur le front occidental en France le 22 juin 1918 à l'âge de 28 ans.

Il y a 2 noms sur la pierre tombale, celui de Frank Bentley mais au-dessus, celui de sa mère Jane Cockshire Bentley.

Voici, en français, le texte que l'on retrouve sur la pierre tombale :
