Her third son, Private James William Prices, R.M.L.I., who was home on leave only a fortnight ago, Re- joined the ill-fated ship, which was en- gaged in the greatest naval battle of modern times. It is reported that there were no survivors from this vessel.. This young marine had been in the Navy for eight years, previous to which he was em- ployed at Messrs, Price's Candle Woks, at Bromborough Pool. He received his edu- cations at St. Mark's School.
