the twain joined hands in death. I 
BECAUSE these Mushm Indian Soldiers left a warni 
Indian climate to suffer the rigours of ^ European: 
winter campaign. 
BECAUSE, although Muslim, they placed aheir British; 
citizenship foremost and fought 'for the solidarity of

BECAUSE YOU cannot permit the Widows and Orphans; 
of these who have gallantly fallen to suffer. 
BECAUSE "Greater love hath no man than this, that |a 
man lay down his life for his friends." •
