1915 ARMY BIBLE.. With a 1916 Bullet Head

I am Happy to keep this in the family... But If there is 1 of you out there whom wishes to own this more than I want to sell it you Start the bidding...

Here we have a Family Heir-loom from my extentend Family....

Corpral WH Pimm (william henry)

1st served as 1 of Kitcheners Troopers in Sth Africa in Boer war..
Continued his service into WW1...

Story goes that he was praying with his BIBLE Before battle as a stray bullet from the Balltefield found its way into the end of the Bible.... What a stroke of luck..... Shame it didnt last as it is thought that he recieved Fatal wounds and Died 3 days later from those wounds.. Sustaind with in 48hrs of the Bible Saving his life.
