OLD ST. PAULINE KILLED.

The death in action of Pte T. Lucas, of the R.A.M.C., has now been officially confirmed. The deceased soldier, who in happier days resided at 29, Larch Road, Tranmere, was 31 years of age. Before the war he was employed at Messrs. Clover-Clayton, and some three years ago he joined the colours. He was in France for two years, and had seen some severe fighting before receiving the fatal wound. He was an old boy of St. Paul’s school.
