BRITISH SOLDIER KILLED IN PALESTINE
JERUSALEM, August 12.
With two sentries posted, eight British soldiers were bathing naked in a pool in the eastern valley of Esdraelon, when 30 Arabs crept up. The sentries saw them and fired, but the Arabs shot them down and then scattered into the hills, leaving a British corporal killed and three soldiers wounded, one seriously.
