CALL TO ARMS Nov 1917 - North Canterbury 2nd Division
Press, Volume LIII, Issue 16052, 7 November 1917
The names of the first members of the Second Division in a ballot, the twelfth of the series, were published in a "Gazette" Extraordinary yesterday and naturally created more than usual interest. The reservists affected were those belonging to Class A of the Second Division - married men without children...
Altogether 4874 married reservists were called up, of whom 828 belong to the Canterbury province.
