I went to Jervis Street Hospital on Thursday 25 November 1920, and there identified my husband Michael Feery as one of the deceased. The House Surgeon pointed out my husband as not having been identified. The last time I saw him alive was on Sunday morning, 21 November 1920 at about 12 o'clock. My husband was an ex-soldier, discharged from the Royal Marines about over a year ago. He was living with me but out of regular employment, and had no work since his discharge, but we earned a few shillings doing odd jobs. I am destitute with a delicate son and have to support him. The funeral cost me £12. 10s. and I only got £10 from the Refuge Insurance Company. He drew no pension.
Previous to joining the Royal Marines, he was in the Royal Engineers in the beginning of the War, and previous to that was in the Royal Irish Rifles and a pre-War soldier.
His number in the Royal Marines was 14530.
