Henry Patrick Clee (SN 71) was a blacksmith from Walker Street Sebastopol when he gave his age as 43 at enlistment on March 27th 1916. He sailed from Australia aboard the Ascanius in May and reached France attached to the 39th Battalion in November. Almost immediately he had health problems and was soon invalided to England. It was eventually decided that he was unfit for active service and he returned to Australia where he was discharged on January 21st 1918 ‘medically unfit – debility, rheumatism, over-age’. He died in August 1928 with cemetery records indicating he was 76 years of age.

Lucas’s Staffs Appreciation of Brave Men, the original Avenue register, records his name as Harry Glee.
