"Death of a South Lancashire Private. In the list of casualties issued by the War Office on Wednesday, appears the name of 2947 Private T Torney, who died at Lydenberg on July Ist. The cause of death is unknown."Published: Friday 05 July 1901
Newspaper: St. Helens Examiner
County: Lancashire, England
A newspaper account from 1904, at the unveiling of the Wallasey Memorial, which does not mention Private Torney by name so we can assume he died of disease.
