PTE R Howard, of the Henley, Oxfordshire and Bucks Light infantry, has been wounded in action. It was reported in Henley last week that he was killed or had died of his wounds. This report, however, which naturally caused much distress to his wife, was untrue and we now learn that Pte Howard is convalescing at a base camp where he is making good progress towards recovery. Pte Howard was one of the first to join up with the national Reservists shortly after the outbreak of the war.
