A LIST OF ALL THE MEN KILLED IN THE WAR UP TO THE END OF 1915
BADSEY
BADSEY MAN KILLED
Mrs D Hartwell, of Cotswold View, Badsey, received on Thursday morning news that her son, Sergeant F T Hartwell, of the Worcesters, had been killed in action. The Chaplain of the company writes her as follows:
ANOTHER BADSEY MAN KILLED
BADSEY SCHOOLMASTER WOUNDED
Sergeant Amos, for some time headmaster of Badsey Council School, was severely wounded on July 3, and is now an inmate of Leicester Hospital, where he is progressing slowly. Mr Amos married Miss McDonald, of Badsey, and she is now at Leicester with her husband. Mrs Amos’s brother was also wounded in the same charge. It is a somewhat curious coincidence that Sergeant Amos should have been taken to Leicester, of which town he is a native and which he has not visited for a quarter of a century.
ALDINGTON MAN WOUNDED
Mr & Mrs William Lidsey, of Aldington, have received further information about their son, Lance-Corporal Charles Lidsey, who as reported last week, has been wounded. The official intimation states that he is suffering from a serious gun-shot wound in the left fore-arm. Writing to his parents Lance-Corporal Lidsey says he is much better and is very glad to be in England again
ALDINGTON MAN WOUNDED
News was received at his home at Aldington on Monday that Lance-Corporal Charles Lidsey, son of Mr & Mrs William Lidsey, has been wounded in the left arm. No information of the extent of the wound is given, but as Lance-Corporal Lidsey wrote himself it is anticipated that it is not serious. Lance-Corporal Lidsey, who was formerly in the employ of Messrs H Burlingham & Co, of Evesham, enlisted at the outbreak of war and went out some months ago.
BADSEY OFFICERS WOUNDED
Cablegrams have been received from Capt. Cyril E. Sladden, son of Mr J. Sladden, of Badsey, and from Lieut. H. Allsebrook, brother of the Vicar of Badsey, who we reported last week had been wounded. Capt. Sladden wires that he has sustained a fracture of the left arm, but is doing well,while Lieut. Allsebrook says he has sustained a fracture of the left thigh and is doing well after an operation. We trust both officers will make complete recoveries.
