      Death Of A Plymouth
      Labour Leader
      Mr. Francis James Sinclair Ryeland, who died at 29, Anstis-street, Plymouth, after a long illness, was for many years secretary of Plymouth Labour Party and a prominent worker for maternity welfare and crippled children.
      My Ryeland left the Army which the rank of sergeant-major instructor to the R.G.A., Territorials, Plymouth. He entered the Dockyard and threw in his lot with the Steam branch of the Workers' Union and was invited to become district organizer and consequently left the yard and took on work for the employes. The work expended, additional organizers had to be engaged, and he was promoted to the large area of Devon and Cornwall and was brought into touch with many industrial trades.
      He was the first Labour member to contest Mutley (Plymouth) Ward in the municipal election of 1918, but without success. Two years later, however, in Sutton Ward, he defeated Mr. Lawrence Spear (Liberal), and during his three years on the then Borough Council served on various committees.
      For five years Mr. Ryeland was chairman of the Plymouth Crippled Children's Association.
