PRIVATE F. MURRAY WAS KILLED
Pte. B. Tally writes as follow to his mother concerning thedoath of Pte. Frank Murray, who was recently reported as being killed in action :—Three of us were sitting together and talking a few days ago when a shell exploded at our side, killing Frank Murray. He was considerably cut about the head. I was lucky and escaped with a few scratches, and think my luck must be in. I was deeply sorry to lose Frank, as we had always been mates to gether, but suppose what is to be will be.
