Lt Harry Nicholls
K.O.Y.L.I.

Lt Nicholls of Sandymount Road, is progressing favourably at Farnborough.

He had only been back in France a few weeks when he receive wounds in the leg which necessitated his removal to England.

Lt Nicholls was a sergeant before going out on active service to France.

He has two brothers in France, Herbert, with the K.O.Y.L.I., and Jack, with the Scottish Borderers.

A younger brother Arthur is stationed at Rugeley Camp with the Duke of Wellington’s.

An older brother Frank, who was formerly in the Coldstream, was disabled in France while serving with the York and Lancaster earlier in the war.

Thus it will be seen that Lt Nicholls belongs to a soldiery family. His mother is a widow resides at Sandymount Road.
