Lorton (The Bloodless Soldier)

Corporal Lorton was a soldier who had been fighting in India under the command of Captain Hertford. After being bitten by an animal there, the captain had transformed into a wild man. Lorton, now in command, told the privates that they would have to take him back to England, but they didn't realise the consequences. Corporal Lorton was killed by his captain while trying to restrain him in the streets of London. (AUDIO: The Bloodless Soldier)
