Rushden's Casualty List
Pte. George Sail, of Crabb-street, Rushden who, as reported in last week's "Rushden Echo," has been wounded, in the course of a letter-to his wife says: "Just a few more lines to let you know I am getting on nicely. The sister told me that the doctor said I shall come to Blighty in a few more days, when I am a little better; my head is feeling better to-day. I have got all my hair off on front, but I do not mind that as long as I have got my life. I am writing this while on my back, as I cannot sit up." Pte. Sail has now arrived at the 1st London General Hospital, Camberwell.
