Extract from Cambridge Daily News - Thursday 2 January 1919, page 4:

A PRISONER’S SUFFERINGS'

Comrade’s Story of Dying Man

Mrs. Tingey, of 14, Argyle-street, has received information that her husband. Pte. Thomas Tingey, of the Manchester Regiment, died in captivity in Germany. Pte. Tingey, who was 37 years of age, joined in January, 1915, and went to France in March, last year. A month later he was captured. He leaves a widow and four children.

A comrade writes: “From the first time I saw him I was so sorry for him; he was such poor-looking soul It was at Hautmont Hospital, in France —German, of course. He was in the next bed to me, and he trusted himself a good deal to me. I don’t know what the German doctors were treating him for, but he was like the rest of us—we did not get much attention from them. For myself, I think his trouble was the jaundice. He was not allowed the same diets as the other patients—that miserable brown bread and “Gerry’s" famed soups in the morning. He was allowed a thin slice of bread (white) and butter, and’ “Gerry's” substitute coffee, and at dinner time he got such diets as macaroni done with milk, and a good ration of lamb, or rice done up in milk, with mutton. In the evening we all got barley water for tea (no bread and no tea), and only one bread ration a day. . . Your husband would not take the special diet, and seems to have taken a fair dislike to supping foods, as the look these dishes made him shudder. I nursed him to the best of my ability; . . the Germans didn’t worry, not a bit. The brutes made him leave Hautmont with a pair of wooden clogs, as they did many another one, on our journey to Gottingen. A French woman gave him a pair of lovely boots, but these were taken from him by ‘‘Gerry.” The French civil population Hautmont gave him coffee, bread, toffee, cigarettes, matches, mufflers, handkerchiefs—he seemed to draw everybody’s sympathy. . . Your husband was forced to leave for the long journey although could not walk. He was so weak that I had practically to carry him wherever we went. I went for our coffee and bread one morning, when we were in the train, and when I returned I found that your husband had passed away."
