NEWS ITEM in Jersey Evening Post of Tuesday 29 May
1917
Roll of Honour. We regret to hear of the
death of Sergeant W Jennings which occurred on 9 May
in a military hospital in Salonika as the result of
wounds received during the fighting on the Macedonian
Front. The deceased soldier is the son of Mr & Mrs
Jennings of Salem House, St Lawrence and he had seen
no less than 22 months service. He had seen service
in Egypt and was at the evacuation of Gallipoli, but
within the past few months he had been employed on works
of importance for the Army around Salonika. To the bereaved
parents we would tender our respectful sympathy.
