•END OF BRAVE TERRITORIALS. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.«-Copyrlght. London, July 22. Sir lan Hamilton's dispatch of August 13, 1915, alluded to the fate of the Irish Norfolk Territorials, including the Sandringham Company, as a very mysterious affair. The graves regsitration officers on the Gallipot! Peninsula have proved that Colonel Sir H. Beauchamp, 16 officers and 250 men pushed on steadily from Suvla Bay. All were killed fighting. Their skeletons were found uriburied facing a Turkish position, where they fell a mile beyond what became the front line/
Fifty were found alongside a party of Turks. They had evidently died in a hand-to-hand conflict. Not a man was captured wounded or unwounded.— Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
