I AM pleased DM Dale found the article about my family pilgrimage to a war cemetery interesting. The Harry Laverack on that trip was my brother and not the person DM Dale is thinking about (Letters, May 21).
However, I can confirm that the Harry Laverack from Elvington who memorably demolished a chimney was my father’s last surviving brother.
He was invited to join us on our trip to France, but was too ill to travel and sadly died just before we set off in June 1993.
