From the official guides

A skeleton warrior that can somehow use a sword, but is poor at handling a shield.

Zelda II The Adventure of Link Instruction Booklet (Nintendo of America, 1988), p. 38

A skeleton warrior. It can just about handle a sword, but it is bad with a shield.

リンクの冒険 取扱説明書 (任天堂, 1987), p. 39, 101Leafy's translation

Former soldiers brought back to life by the king. In life they were loyal guards of the castle. They guard spots all over the palaces and drop on intruders from above.

ファミリーコンピュータMagazine 特別編集 リンクの冒険 (徳間書店, 1987), p. 16, 101Leafy's translation

The skeletons of loyal soldiers who guarded the castle in life, now enemies. Frankly, they are weak. Block their attack with your shield and stab their legs, and that does it. There are red and blue ones, and the blue one is only a little stronger.

リンクの冒険 (秋田書店, 1987), p. 12, 101Leafy's translation

Soldiers come back from the depths of death. Once brave soldiers, they have turned into eerie skeletons and guard the palaces from intruders.

リンクの冒険 (実業之日本社, 1987), p. 23, 101Leafy's translation

Soldiers brought back to life by the king and a wizard. Loyal to the king in life, they still guard the palaces now that they are dead. They are not very good with the sword, so you can beat them easily by crouching and attacking.
