The picture shows a fragment of what was left of HMS Kent's ensign following the battle of the Falklands Dec 8th 1914.   The slip of paper attached to it is in my grandfather's original handwriting.   Harry Colin Fleming was Sgt of marines (gunnery) on the Kent.   There was practically nothing left of the flag, as can be seen in the photograph.
