    Markings on a Lee Enfield Jungle Carbine

    Good day: A friend recently came into possession of a LE Jungle Carbine and there were some markings on the butt stock that I was hoping some of you experts could help us determine what they meant:

    26 10 48
    I H L
    255
    C. SQN

    The first line is fairly self-evident as a date, the rest are open to a bit of interpretation. Any idea what lines 2-4 are?
