William Hope Hodgson was killed April 17, 1918, in the Great War.


A stone monument; carved on it are the names of William Hope Hodgson and other British soldiers killed in the First World War.

I thought you might find this interesting. It's WHH's memorial inscription at Tyne Cot cemetery, near Passendale.

My wife and I just returned from a trip to France and Belgium, touring the graves and memorials of various of the War Poets and the Vera Brittain circle, but I didn't want to leave WHH out, especially as we'd visited Tyne Cot in 1998 without knowing he was commemorated there.
