Uploader's Notes:

Son of John and Mary Stacey, of Caughnawaga, Quebec, Canada. John Stacey's religion was noted as Protestant in his attestation papers.

So Sawatis Tawanladah, the "chief" of the famous Iroquois Indians of Canada and of five other North American Indian tribes, has passed away to his happy hunting grounds. Last January, it will be remembered, in this column we mentioned this Indian chief and the fact of his joining up with the R.F.C. in this country. Now it is announced that Lieut. John Randolph Stacey - which was Sawatis Tawanladah's name in the British Army - was killed in a flying accident at Hounslow last Monday. And so passes away another of the ancient links of the past, through the medium of the most modern science of the age. (Flight Magazine; April 18, 1918 page 426)
