Bingham, Bentinck Aglionby
Second Lieutenant Bentinck Bingham. We are indebted to the senior student of the Theological Faculty for the following notice. He came from a good family in the west of Ireland. He entered King's College in the Theological Faculty in 1912. On the outbreak of the war he joined the University O.T.C. and was granted a commission in the - Lancashire Regiment. He was killed in August, 1917. He was admired by those who knew him, and especially by those who knew the many obstacles he had to overcome in the course of his career. The secretary of a well-known missionary society says that his strength of character was worthy of the greatest praise. King's College Review
