ST. KILDA (BOMBARDMENT).

HC Deb 17 October 1918 vol 110 c287

80. Mr. HOGGE

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty if he can give any details of the bombardment of St. Kilda?

Dr. MACNAMARA

A submarine opened fire on St. Kilda on the 15th May last at long range and damaged the church and other buildings. Such steps as are considered practicable have been taken to deal with the possibility of a similar attack.

Mr. HOGGE

Were there any other casualties?

Dr. MACNAMARA

I cannot answer that question.
