Paris Boy Ill

A telegram was received in Woodstock yesterday morning announcing that a former Woodstock boy, in the person of Private Victor Waring had been admitted to No. 3 General Hospital, Boulogne, seriously ill, and suffering from wounds in the right arm and shoulder. The telegram was addressed to his mother, the late Mrs. E. Reid, who died last July. Pte. Waring enlisted in a Brantford Battalion and went overseas early last year.
