Intimation has been received from the Infantry Record Office, Dublin, that his brother, Thomas Timoney, of the same battalion, is ill and has been admitted to the First Canadian Stationary Hospital suffering from dysentery. In a letter dated 3rd September, however, he writes to his father that he need not worry about him as he thinks he will be all right and is getting on well. He does not want anything sent to him as he gets all he wants. He adds:- ‘Brown and Tommy Campbell are shot, poor fellows, and Charles Coey is wounded. Our Division has made a good name for itself, especially the 16th Battalion, as they were all brave men, all of them. The Turks ran away from us pretty fast.’ The Brown referred to is, we understand, John Brown, who belongs to South Derry, and was employed by William J Henry, Cloghog, at the time he joined the Army. Tommy Campbell is a son of Mr William Campbell, the Blue Doors, Cookstown. He was in the employment of Messrs Adair’s before enlistment. His parents have not yet had any intimation that he is in the casualty list. |

Private Joseph Timoney, B Company, 6th Inniskillings, with the Mediterranean Expeditionary Force, writing to his father, Mr Edward Timoney, Loy street, Cookstown, on 30th August, says he has been in hospital suffering from shrapnel wound and has recovered. He says the shrapnel went in at the left side of his neck and he had to undergo and operation to have it removed from where it was lodged near the right shoulder blade. He has the bit of shrapnel and would like to send it home as a souvenir. James Shiels, of the Chapel Hill, was the only Cookstown man wounded at the same time as he was. He belonged to the Munsters. They see each other regularly. Private Timoney adds that he wishes he could see the Mid Ulster Mail to get the local news. In a further undated letter he writes asking for some cigarettes. |
