		Grenfell had a shell splinter in his head, and was taken to No. 10 Casualty Clearing Station; from there he wrote to his mother in pencil on blood stained paper, saying his skull was slightly cracked, but he was getting on splendidly.
		Julian Grenfell DSO was buried on May 28, 1915 in the cemetery on the hill above Boulogne, looking across to the battlefields.

		The operation was successful but Grenfell was badly wounded and was taken by his friend, the Duke of Westminster, in his Rolls Royce to the nearby town of Bavai where he was treated by French nuns in a convent hospital.
		Grenfell recovered from his wounds and was awarded the Victoria Cross for the role he played in saving the 119 Field Battery.
		Grenfell, shot through the heart at the height of the battle, bore, too, a look of deep peace, as if at last he had cheerfully gone to a better country, to join his beloved Rivy, from the shock of whose death, on the Aisne, Francis had never recovered”.

		The staff at Sir Wilfred Grenfell College were given the task of developing a degree in science which was interdisciplinary and did not duplicate degrees offered at Memorial University.
		Julian Dust's presentation on Carvacrol and Thymol in Summer Savory demonstrated a mechanism for achieving this.
		The justification for using this experiment was explained through "technique introduction and relating organic chemistry concepts to life therefore enhancing the students interest." Dr. Dust illustrated that using simple methodology could provide a result that was scientifically correct and at a recovery level acceptable in a student laboratory as compared to other practical recovery techniques.

	The New York Review of Books: Hello to All That
		The figures with whom both these books are concerned, though all three Englishmen with aristocratic family backgrounds, active in the late Victorian and Edwardian periods, are in some ways very different: Julian Grenfell was a talented and attractive youth of great promise who was cut off in 1915, aged twenty-seven, by the First World War.
		He and his younger brother Billy, who was killed a few weeks later, came to symbolize for a good many of their contemporaries the tragic waste of that war.
		Julian himself had welcomed the war: "It is all the most wonderful fun," he wrote shortly after reaching the front; "better fun than one could ever imagine.

		The truth is that this is a double biography, a biography of an aristocratic comrade-at-arms of the hero of William - an Englishman, and of Julian's mother, every bit as dominating as the 'sharp-eyed, masterful mother' who ruled William's life as much as Ettie ruled Julian's.
		The fabric for Julian Grenfell: His life and the times of his death was designed in about 1888, the year of Julian's birth.
		A block-printed cotton velveteen, attributed to Thomas Wardle (who had worked with William Morris, a favourite of Julian's parents' friends, 'The Souls'), it is a very typical Arts and Crafts repeat floral pattern.

		The Imperial War Museum has mounted a major exhibition ('Anthem for Doomed Youth') to illustrate the life and work of perhaps the 12 most notable 'soldier poets' from the 'more than 400' the IWM claims were inspired to write war poetry by the experience of the trenches.
		Most of them are those only too familiar, astonishingly young, boy-soldiers: Edmund Blunden, Rupert Brooke, Robert Graves, Julian Grenfell, Ivor Gurney, David Jones, Wilfred Owen, Isaac Rosenberg, Siegfried Sassoon, Charles Sorley, Edward Thomas and (a new one to me) the Irishman, Francis Ledwidge.
		As poets, their reactions ranged from the romantic idealism of Brooke and Grenfell to the outraged indignation of Sassoon and Owen.

	Grenfell (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		One of the most interesting of these patriotic poets was Julian Grenfell, who came to be known as "the happy warrior." His poem "Into Battle" suggests a kind of mystique about war, a natural urge for man to fight that binds him to nature and his fellowman.
		The soldier is associated in the imagery of the poem with the sun, the heavens, the birds and the trees.
		As one critic observes, war creates for Grenfell a kind of "curious rapture." It is ironic that "Into Battle" was published in The Times the same day he died in 1915.

	About Balliol College: History - PH Shaw-Stewart
		His contemporaries thought his pointed nose, pallid freckled complexion and red hair unattractive, but he was by common consent the intellectual star of his circle: he was President of the Annandale Society and prominent in many of the other Balliol debating and dining societies which flourished in his time.
		His closest friends at Balliol were all Etonians: Ronald Knox, later his biographer; LE Jones who also wrote about him; and a doomed group which was exuberant beyond the patience of the dons - Julian Grenfell*, Charles Alfred Lister (1887-1915), and Edward William Horner (1888-1917).
		Following Lister's rustication in 1908 for ridiculing the Junior Dean of Trinity College, there was an elaborate mock funeral at which Shaw-Stewart preached on the text "I wist not, brethren, that he was the high priest".
