Lieut. Longman ran to put on his equipment and join his men; but another shell exploded just outside the window, and a pellet struck him in the temple, killing him instantaneously. His Colonel (since killed in action) wrote: “Please accept my deepest sympathy and be consoled with the thought that his work on active service was as sound and valuable as his conduct has been brave and dutiful. His rapid return to duty after the wound received after crossing the Marne marked him specially as a genuine soldier, and his loss will be very much felt by all of us, professionally and socially.” A brother officer also wrote: “He was always cheery, and it did us all good to see the way he did his job, and never grumbled at anything. He was one of the gallantest fellows I ever saw, and nothing ever frightened him. We are all proud of him, and his name will always go on in the Regiment’s history as a hero”; and another said he noticed, on the retreat from Mons, how he carried far more than his share of the necessaries, and constantly cheered his men by word and example in their temporary depression. While at Harrow, he was a member of the School Corps, and of the Football XI in 1907, in which year he was also a Dolphin and champion featherweight boxer. He was a member of the O.T.C. at Cambridge, and later held a commission in the Hertfordshire Territorial Regt., for which he recruited a section of 41 men in the neighbourhood of his home at Braughing. He was an active member of the local rifle club and gave much time to training lads from the village school at the miniature range, some of whom became excellent shots. In the army he devoted himself to training his men in shooting and boxing, and represented his battn. in the competition for the Army championship at rifle shooting. In regard to his boxing in the Southern Command Boxing Meeting of 1914, the judge remarked that his fight was the finest thing he had ever seen, and held it up to the men as an example of British pluck and endurance.

Sandroyd School, Stanmore; Harrow (Druries), and University College, Oxford; was a student at the Inner Temple, and after passing Moderations with honours (Classics) at Oxford, became a student also in the faculty of Medicine and Surgery; volunteered on the outbreak of war and gazetted 2nd Lieut., 5th North Staffordshires, Aug. 1914; went to France, 3 March, 1915, and was killed in action near Wulverghem, early on Sunday morning, 23 May, 1915; _unm._ Soon after midnight he was with his men repairing some wiring in front of the trench, when he was struck by a bullet, and died in the ambulance on his way to the hospital. Buried at Neuve Eglise, Belgium. His commanding officer, Col. Knight, wrote: “He was certainly the bravest man I have seen out here, and endeared himself to all of us. We did our best to make him more cautious, but he would set the example--as he did to all of us--to his platoon, and he made them into a splendid lot of men.” The President of the Officer’s Mess also wrote: “I need only say that he was universally beloved by both officers and men, and his platoon would have done anything for him and followed him anywhere, and by his splendid behaviour in the face of danger he has left us a grand example.” The Platoon Sergt. writing on behalf of the platoon said: “In any work one or more of us were engaged in, he was always ready with a helping hand, thus in no small way in his capacity of an officer, displaying his desire to encourage us, and he always proved himself to be of an unselfish and thoughtful disposition.” Lieut. Loxton was fond of yatching and had just returned from a yatching cruise on the West of Scotland when the war broke out. While a boy at Stanmore, he became a member of the University and Public Schools Camp, and attended each year with the Anglesey Camp. He regarded these camps with real affection, and said they taught a boy the manliness of religion and not to be ashamed of it. His Housemaster at the Druries Harrow, wrote: “Edward Loxton came to Harrow in 1906. A steady worker if not an accomplished scholar in the technical sense, he had a strong appreciation of the best in literature, and spent a year in the highest form in the school. But it was in the house that his gifts of character were most clearly to be discerned. To a personality of great charm, and an exceptional talent for friendship, he added an unostentatious force of character, a self-less devotion to duty and all the simplicity of a finely touched spirit. Passionately loyal himself, he abhorred all that was mean or base. It surprises none who loved him to read of his bravery in the field, as he was _sans reproche_, he would be _sans peur_. He is deeply mourned in a house which has given many lives of bright promise in England’s cause.”

But his deepest interest was in the condition of the London poor, and he early tried to give practical relief by throwing himself heart and soul into the Boy Scout movement. He commanded the East London Torynbee Hall Scouts for some years. On the outbreak of war, after much heart searching, he decided to enlist and thus set an example in its simplest form, and he was followed to the recruiting office by 80 ex-scouts, and scoutmasters.”
