Brother of Six Nations Indian Prisoner of War

Word was received yesterday by Mrs. James Johnston, of the Six Nations’ Reserve, that her son, Private Thomas Lickers had been killed in action in France. He was with the 58th Battalion. His brother, William Foster Lickers is a prisoner of war in Germany. It will be remembered that it was first reported that he had been killed.
