The Gallant Exploits of Naik Sher Singh, In the Course of Which he is Wounded.

On February 14th 1915, while fighting with a force sent to quell a local rising of the Dervishes at Shimberberris, Somaliland, Naik Sher Singh, of the 23rd Sikh Pioneers, courageously volunteered to place a charge of gun cotton against the door of the Dervish stronghold. But as he came close to the building he was fired upon through loopholes in the door, and fell insensible.
