Louis Morrice was shot whilst looking for a spy.
A gunner said that the guard had been called out by a sentry on the Monday evening owing to the presence of a spy. The guard then entered the wood and when they reached the rail fencing along Eleanoer Road a shot rang out and Louis Morrice staggered and dropped, saying 'Oh, I am shot'.
