History of the 18th Battalion CEF, "The Fighting Eighteenth" 
Hi there! I have much appreciated using this website for some personal research and learning more about the Battalion. I have come across two London Advertiser articles about Milford that I would love to pass along! One is of his death, while the other is a letter of his they had printed in the paper. Please feel free to contact me and I can send them along.
Cheers,
