DELAYED-ACTION BOMBS
0 DROPPED BY GERMANS IN ENGLAND. SOME CATTLE KILLED & INJURED. (By Telegraph—Press Association.) (Received This Day, 11.50 a.m.) LONDON, Juno 28. In the latest German air raids on Britain two planes dropped three small bombs in a Midlands area. Two bombs fell in a Welsh area. There was some damage but no casualties. Fourteen bombs fell on a farm in a north-east area of England. Two head of cattle were killed and a number of animals were injured. Between 50 and 60 incendiary bombs fell on another farm. Small fires were quickly extinguished. The Germans appear to be using delayed action bombs. One dropped near a south-eastern village last night exploded some hours later, shaking houses.
