Charles Biron Minter was one of the oldest of Old Boys, as he was at the School in the early days of its
existence. On the outbreak of war he rejoined his old regiment, the London Scottish, as a private, but was
soon promoted to sergeant, and was employed in training recruits. He was subsequently commissioned
to the 3/7th Batt. of the Middlesex Regiment, and went to Barnet for training. After doing captain’s
work for some time he was gazetted to that rank, and was placed in charge of “C” Company.
While at Windsor with the battalion he contracted a chill, and had to take sick leave.
His death occurred after an illness of five weeks, following repeated attacks of influenza.
Captain Minter, who in private life held the post of assistant town clerk to the Borough of Marylebone, was an
all-round athlete. He was a very good singer, and also met with no mean success as a song-writer, two of his
latest works being “Who’s for this Flag?” and “The Indian Soldier.” He died, aged 35, on 27 June, 1915 and
was cremated at Golders Green Crematorium. His ashes are in niche 1564.
