Brothers Hulley

Across are the sons of Mr and Mrs Charles fully, of Woodfield Road, West Melton.

Both enlisted in the early days of the War, in the Sheffield City Battalion; they were sent out to Egypt, and finally landed in France on March 15, 1916.

Gordon was severely wounded in the fighting around Arras, by the bursting of a shell, and is now on the way to recovery in the Military Hospital at York.

Frank is still in the trenches and so far has escaped the enemy’s fire. Both are well known in Wath and West Melton.
