FOREWORD. 


IN  this  volume  the  University  of  Aberdeen  records  the  service  and  the 
sacrifices  rendered  by  her  Graduates,  Alumni,  Students,  and  Staff  during 
the  Great  War,  and  does  homage  to  the  memory  of  those  of  them  who 
achieved  the  greatest  that  men  can  and  laid  down  their  lives  for  their  friends — 
and  indeed  for  all  men,  in  so  far  as  they  fought,  suffered  and  died  for  ideals 
which  are  essential  to  the  higher  life  of  the  race. 

They  entered  the  War  at  various  stages  of  its  development.  Some  already 
held  commissions  in  the  Regular  Forces  of  the  Crown — a  few  as  combatants 
and  many  more  in  the  medical  services  of  the  Navy  and  the  Army.  A  still 
greater  number,  mindful  of  their  duty  to  share  in  the  defence  of  their  country, 
were,  when  war  broke  out,  members  of  the  Territorial  Force,  mainly  in  the 
University  Company  of  the  Fourth  Gordons  and  in  several  Artillery  and 
Medical  units.  Without  hesitation  all  of  these  responded  to  the  call  to  active 
service.  Of  the  rest  the  great  majority  also  joined  the  King's  Forces  as 
volunteers.  Those  who  followed  under  conscription  went  with  as  ready  and 
gallant  a  will  as  their  predecessors.  As  the  lists  show,  a  considerable  number 
from  first  to  last  came  from  over  the  seas. 

To  us,  whom  hundreds  of  them  consulted  before  enlisting,  or  who  visited 
them  during  their  training,  it  was  clear  that,  with  few  exceptions,  they  offered 
themselves  only  after  deliberation  and  with  an  understanding  of  the  high  issues 
which  confronted  our  people  from  1914  onwards.  Being  from  their  education 
of  more  than  average  intelligence  they  were  awake  to  what  war  meant  and,  as 
some  of  the  following  sketches  reveal,  they  hated  it — a  hatred  that  deepened 
with  every  month's  experience  of  its  horrors.  But  their  sense  of  duty  to  their 
people,  to  the  Cause,  and  to  themselves  was  still  more  strong  and  sustained 
them  to  the  end.  Their  studies,  or  the  practice  of  their  professions,  had  been 
rudely  broken.  They  entered  on  a  discipline  and  a  career  alien  to  their 
previous  habits  and  to  the  ideals  of  their  education.  Yet  they  took  up  their 
strange  duties  with  alacrity  and  pursued  them  with  a  cheerful  faithfulness  ;  while 
not  a  few  of  them,  as  also  appears  from  their  brief  biographies,  developed  a 


vi  FOREWORD. 

remarkable  rapacity,  and   in  some  cases  a  genius,  for  the  profession  of  arms, 
to  \\hich  they  had  been  so  suddenly  called. 

What  cio  \vc  not  owe  to  them?  In  the  first  days  of  the  War,  when  as  a 
nation  we  knew  ourselves  unworthy  of  the  awful  trust  committed  to  us  and 
far  from  prepared  to  do  battle  for  it,  the  ready  will  of  our  men  to  adventure  all 
—coming  forward  as  they  did  by  hundreds  of  thousands — rebuked  the  national 
diffidence  and  rallied  our  hearts.  The  Cause  which  inspired  such  sacrifices 
could  not  be  an  unjust  or  a  losing  cause.  And  we  continued  to  feel  the  steady- 
ing power  of  their  example,  till,  under  God,  they  overthrew  the  powerful  foe— 
the  victory  of  whose  claims  upon  civilisation  would  have  depressed  the  spirit  of 
mankind  lor  generations — and  thereby  averted  from  the  world  one  of  the 
greatest  moral  disasters  that  ever  threatened  it.  In  addition  our  own  country 
was  saved  from  a  cruel  invasion,  and  the  yoke  of  foreign  oppression  was  lifted 
from  many  other  nationalities  both  in  the  West  and  in  the  East.  To  forget 
what  we,  what  all  men,  owe  morally  and  materially  to  their  valour  and  unselfish- 
ness would  be  our  shame  and  bitter  loss. 

The  Memorial  Committee  have  felt  it  due  to  our  Fallen  to  make  our 
biographies  of  them  somewhat  fuller  and  more  intimate  than  is  usual  in  such 
Rolls  of  Service  and  Sacrifice.  The  Memorials  which  follow  are  the  pious 
work  of  many  hands  and  hearts — of  relatives,  of  comrades,  of  teachers,  and  of 
company  and  battalion  officers — to  whose  tributes  we  have  given  such  room  as 
the  limits  of  our  space  allowed.  We  trust  that  thus  not  only  will  the  names  be 
preserved  of  brave  men  who  fought  for  their  country  in  the  greatest  crisis  of 
her  history  but  that  something  of  their  spirit  may  be  communicated  to  future 
generations — some  knowledge  of  how  they  fought  and  for  what  they  fought  and 
were  ready  to  die. 

The  University  is  greatly  indebted  to  the  Editor  and  her  assistants  for 
their  devoted  labours  in  issuing  enquiries  as  to  the  service  of  each  member  of 
the  University  and  in  checking  and  compiling  the  multitudinous  details  sub- 
mitted to  them  in  answer,  or  discovered  by  the  Editor's  own  research.

Principal. 


EDITOR'S    PREFACE. 

THIS  volume  is  designed  to  be  a  permanent  Record  of  the  part  played 
by  Members  of  the  University  of  Aberdeen  in  the  Great  War.  It  has 
for  its  basis  the  Four  Provisional  Rolls  of  Service  compiled  by  the 
Principal  during  the  years  of  the  War  ;  these  were  necessarily  incomplete,  but 
they  formed  the  foundation  of  the  present  work. 

The  Record  falls  into  two  parts,  the  In  Memoriam  Roll  and  the  Roll  of 
Service.  The  first  part  contains  the  names  of  those  who  gave  their  lives  in  the 
War,  numbering  341,  together  with  a  short  biographical  notice  of  each,  and 
wherever  possible  a  portrait :  in  all  335  portraits  have  been  obtained.  The 
short  biographies  have  been  contributed  by  near  relatives  or  intimate  friends, 
or  have  been  compiled  from  accounts  which  were  considered  reliable.  They 
appear  in  chronological  order  according  to  the  date  of  death,  so  that  the  names  of 
those  who  fell  side  by  side  stand  together  on  the  printed  page.  The  second  part 
contains  the  names  of  Graduates,  Alumni  and  Students,  numbering  2,852,  who 
went  on  Service — whether  in  the  Navy,  or  in  the  Army,  or  in  the  Air  Force — or 
who  did  work  of  national  importance  arising  out  of  the  War.  It  includes  Students 
whose  names  stand  on  the  books  of  the  University  up  to  the  Summer  Session 
of  1920.  The  information  given  was  supplied  in  response  to  a  form  which  was 
widely  circulated  and  in  most  cases  is  the  writer's  own  report  of  his  or  her 
service,  but  edited  so  as  to  give  a  certain  amount  of  uniformity.  No  index  is 
required,  as  all  the  names  appear  in  the  Roll  of  Service  arranged  alphabetically  ; 
those  of  the  Fallen  are  in  Tudor  type,  followed  in  each  case  by  a  reference  to 
the  page  on  which  the  biographical  notice  appears  in  the  In  Memoriam  Roll. 
The  two  Appendices  contain  the  names  of  Officials  of  the  University  who 
rendered  War  Service,  and  of  civilian  prisoners  of  war. 

Much  valuable  assistance  has  been  accorded  me.  1  have  first  to  thank 
the  War  Memorial  Record  Sub-Committee,  including  Mr.  P.  J.  Anderson 
and  Mr.  Theodore  Watt,  whose  expert  knowledge  as  regards  paper,  type, 
binding  and  illustrations  was  specially  valuable.  Amongst  those  who  contri- 
buted biographical  notices,  were  chiefly  the  Principal,  Professor  Cowan,  Pro- 
fessor Davidson,  Professor  Baillie,  Professor  Grierson,  Principal  Stewart,  Dr.

Mr.  tiihvtn  (St. .runway),  .Mr.  \\'att  (  1  Hngwall),  Dr.  Smith  (of  the  Training 
Centre),  and  Col.  Fleming  (Keith).  Professor  Hendrick  undertook  to  supply 
biographies  of  all  among  the  Fallen  who  were  connected  with  the  Agricultural 
1  Vpartment  of  the  University,  in  number  some  48  ;  this  was  a  great  help,  and  I 
am  most  grateful  for  his  ever  ready  assistance.  Professor  Selbie  not  only  con- 
tributed biographies  of  all  who  had  attended  the  United  Free  Church  College, 
but  also  gave  considerable  time  to  proof-reading,  for  which  he  has  my  warm 
thanks.  Others  whom  I  should  like  to  mention  with  gratitude,  for  the  valuable 
help  they  gave  to  the  work,  are  :  Professor  Reid,  Professor  Harrower,  Professor 
Macdonald,  Rev.  Alex.  Miller  (Buckie),  Dr.  J.  V.  Christie,  Mr.  A.  C.  Morrison, 
Mr.  Kdward  Watt  and  Dr.  J.  O.  Wilson  (Huntly);  and  there  are  others 
whose  interest,  encouragement  and  sympathy  have  lightened  my  labour. 

I  have  been  singularly  fortunate  in  those  who  have  worked  along-  with  me, 
Miss  II.  Ogil\ie,  Miss  X.  Wilson,  Miss  Bjsset,  Miss  A.  Christie,  Miss  Cook, 
and  others,  and  I  am  glad  to  have  this  opportunity  of  expressing  my  gratitude 
for  their  loyalty,  enthusiasm  and  perseverance. 

To  edit  this  Roll  has  been  an  honour  and  a  privilege.  No  effort  has  been 
spared  in  trying  to  make  it  accurate  and  worthy,  but  none  can  be  more  con- 
scious of  its  shortcomings  than  the  editor — the  ideal  is  always  a  hand's  breadth 
beyond  one's  grasp.

IN  MEMORIAM. 


FRASER,     THOMAS     PEPPE:      H.M. 
Colonial   Medical   Service,    West  Africa  ; 

son  of  John  Philip 
Fraser,  Art  Master ; 
born  Aberdeen,  24 
April  1880;  educated 
at  Aberdeen  Grammar 
School;  graduated 
M.B.,  1901  ;  D.P.H. 
(Camb.),  1912.  He 
held  appointments  as 
Hospital  Physician  in 
Denbigh,  G  r  i  m  s  b  y, 
Swansea  and  Sunder- 
land,  and  for  some 
years  practised  in  Lon- 
don. Later  he  entered  the  Government  service, 
was  appointed  to  the  Gold  Coast,  and  thence 
transferred  to  Nigeria. 

Eraser's  war  service  was  very  brief,  for  he 
was  killed  in  the  first  month  of  the  war,  in  a 
reconnaissance,  while  serving  with  a  British  force 
against  the  German  colony  of  Togoland,  29 
August  1914  ;  he  was  buried  at  Mora,  Northern 
Nigeria — the  first  of  Alma's  sons  to  fall  in  the 
Great  War. 

ROBB,     ALEXANDER     KIRKLAND: 

Major,      Durham      Light      Infantry; 

son    of    John    Robb, 

Lieut-Colonel,  I. M.S.; 
born  Poona,  26  August 
1872  ;  educated  at 
Aberdeen  Grammar 
School;  student  in 
Arts,  1889-91  ;  re- 
ceived his  professional 
training  at  the  Military 
College,  Sandhurst. 
From  there  he  passed 
out  first  in  1893,  win- 

ning     the    sword     of 

honour.      Gazetted  in 

the  same  year   to  the  2nd  Battalion   Durham 
Light  Infantry,    he  saw  active   service    on  the 


N.W.  Frontier  with  the  King's  Own  Yorkshire 
L.I.  He  distinguished  himself  in  various  en- 
gagements, was  mentioned  in  dispatches,  and 
received  the  Tirah  medal  with  two  clasps.  After 
a  term  of  duty  in  Burma,  he  rejoined  his  regi- 
ment in  Ireland  ;  and  before  August  1914  was 
acting  as  lecturer  in  military  subjects  at  Durham 
University,  and  Adjutant  to  the  O.T.C.  there. 

Major  Robb's  battalion  was  sent  to  the  Front 
three  weeks  after  the  outbreak  of  war ;  and  it 
was  in  their  first  engagement,  at  the  Battle  of  the 
Aisne,  on  the  20  September  1914,  that  he  fell. 
Though  severely  wounded  in  a  bayonet  charge, 
he  continued  to  lead  his  men  up  to  about 
thirty  yards  from  the  enemy  trenches.  The 
story  of  how  he  was  brought  in  by  a  private  of 
his  battalion  does  honour  to  his  rescuer  ;  and 
scarcely  less  to  him,  showing  as  it  does  the 
devotion  which  he  inspired.  Major  Robb  died 
in  a  hospital  at  Troyon  the  same  night.  He 
was  an  officer  whom  his  regiment  had  cause  to 
love  and  honour,  a  brave  leader,  and  a  courteous 
and  considerate  friend. 


MEARNS,  WILLIAM  MELLIS  :  Surgeon, 
R.N.  ;  son  of  William  Mearns,  medical  practi- 
tioner, Gateshead-on- 
T  y  n  e  ;  born  Gates- 
h  e  a  d  -  on  -  T  y  n  e,  7 
December  1884  ;  ma- 
triculated in  Medicine, 
1902  ;  M.B.,  1908. 

As  a  student  Mearns 
served  in  the  Uni- 
versity Volunteer 
Company.  He  re- 
ceived a  Commission 
as  Surgeon  in  the 
Royal  Navy,  6  Nov. 
1908,  and  served  till 
the  outbreak  of  war  in  China,  the  Persian  Gulf, 
etc.  He  was  appointed  Medical  Officer  to 
H.M.S.  "  Formidable,"  August  1914,  and  served 
with  the  Home  Fleet.  The  official  record  of  his 
death  runs:  "On  i  January  1915  this  ship  was

son  of  Rev.  [allies  \V.

deen, I^  Xo\eilllier 
1889  ;  educated  Aber- 
deen Grammar  School ; 
graduated  -M.  I!. 
(1  Ions.),  1912,  having 
g  a  i  n  e  d  medals  and 
pri/es  in  all  his  clas.se>  ; 
D.l'.H.  (with  credit), 
1914.  In  1913  and 
1914  he  held  posts  in 
the  Royal  Infirmary 
and  Royal  Asylum, 

Aberdeen:    he   then    proceeded  to   Singapnr 
take  up  an  appointment,  first,  as  Medical  Super- 
intendent of  the  Hospital  for  infectious  diseases, 
later  in  the   Public  Health   Department,  and  was 
working  there  when  war  broke  out. 

Legge  joined  the  Singapore  Volunteer  Corps 
a^  Lieutenant  in  July  1914  and  was  mobilized 
for  garrison  duty  in  August.  He  met  his  death 
in  the  quelling  of  a  riot  occasioned  by  the 
mutiny  of  a  part  of  the  jth  Light  Infantry,  an 
Indian  regiment.  '•  He  with  his  stretcher-bearers, 
was  following  up  the  firing  line,  but  in  the  darkness 
and  the  thick  bush  some  of  the  mutineers  got 
behind  them,  and  Angus  was  shot  from  behind." 
He  died  the  same  day,  16  February  1915. 
Angus  Legge  was  a  brilliant  scholar  and  student 
and  keenly  interested  in  the  sporting  side  of 
University  life.  He  was  always  modest  and  un- 
assuming and  very  popular  with  all  who  knew 
him.  He  had  a  most  promising  career  before 
him.  It  is  characteristic  of  Angus  Legge  that 
he  met  his  death  in  undertaking  a  great  risk  to 
save  a  married  friend  from  danger. 

RAMSAY.  LEWIS  NEIL  GRIFFITT  :   2nd 

Lieutenant,  3rd  Huttaliuii  Gordon  High- 
landers ;  son  of  Sir  W.  M.  Ramsay,  LL.D., 
D.C.L.,  D.I).,  Emeritus  Professor  of  Humanity 
in  the  University  of  Aberdeen  ;  born  Aberdeen, 


3  February  [890;  educated  Merchiston  School, 
Edinburgh;  Robert  Gordon's  College.  Aber- 
deen ;  University  of 
Aberdeen  :  ( 'hrist's 
( lollege,  Cambridge. 
He  graduated  M.A., 
1911;  }>.  Sc.,  1912, 
with  special  distinction 
in  Botany,  and  showed 
great  promise  as  a 
naturalist,  especially  in 
the  field  of  ornithology. 
His  observing  powers 
were  very  remarkable. 
As  a  Beit  Fellow  he 
worked  for  some,  time 

in  the  Imperial  College  of  Science,  London,  and 
he  also  acted  for  a  year  with  marked  efficiency  as 
Second  Assistant  in  the  Natural  History  Depart- 
ment, University  of  Aberdeen.  There  can  be 
no  doubt  that  he  would  have  made  his  mark  in 
science.  At  the  University,  Ramsay  was  known 
outside  the  classroom  as  a  keen  sportsman.  In 
hockey,  running  and  swimming,  he  excelled, 
and  he  was  an  enthusiastic  member  of  "  U  " 
Company,  and  of  the  O.T.C.  at  Cambridge. 

In  August  1914  he  joined  the  4th  Gordons 
as  a  private  and  was  commissioned  in  November, 
accepting  exchange  to  the  3rd  (Special  Reserve) 
Battalion.  A  week  later  he  was  ordered  to  join 
the  2nd  Battalion  in  France  where  he  served 
during  the  winter  of  1914-15.  He  came  safely 
through  the  battle  of  Neuve  Chapelle  in  March, 
but  a  few  days  later  was  shot  by  a  sniper 
while  repairing  a  trench  on  ground  taken  from 
the  enemy,  21  March  1915.

son  of  David  M.  Watt, 
editor,  "  Ross-shire 
Journal,"  Dingwall  ; 
born  FYaserburgh,  31 
December  1892  ;  edu- 
cated at  Dingwall

1914.  ]'o>sessed  of  a  facile  pen,  he  had  hoped 
to  apply  his  great  energy  and  rare  purposeful- 
ness  to  agricultural  journalism.  After  gradua- 
tion he  was  appointed  Assistant  to  the  General 
County  Organizer  of  the  North  of  Scotland  Col- 
te'ge  of  Agriculture. 

He  enlisted  in  the  i/4th  Seaforths  in  October 
1914,  and,  refusing  a  commission,  went  to  France 
with  a  draft  in  February  1915.  He  was  mortally 
wounded  at  Neuve  Chapelle  in  March  and  died 
twelve  days  later  at  Boulogne,  22  March  1915. 


CRUICKSHANK.  JAMES  ORR: 
Private,  4th  Battalion  Gordon  High- 
landers ;  second  son 
of  Samuel  C  r  u  i  c  k- 
shank,  teacher,  Tarf- 
sidc,  Glenesk ;  born 
Brechin,  1 7  August 
1895  ;  educated  there  ; 
matriculated  in  Arts 
and  Science,  191,1. 

On  the  outbreak  of 
war  he  was  already  a 
private  in  "  U  "  Coy., 
4th  Gordons,  and 
underwent  training 
with  his  regiment  at 
Bedford,  where  his  Captain  had  occasion  to 
notice  his  intelligence  and  unselfish  usefulness. 
In  the  following  February  he  crossed  with  the 
regiment  to  the  Front  in  Belgian  Flanders.  There 
he  actively  and  dutifully  served  till  he  met  his 
death,  15  April  1915,  in  the  trench  in  front  of 
Wytschaete  from  the  bullet  of  a  German  sniper. 
He  was  the  second  of  the  University  Company 
of  the  4th  Gordons  to  give  his  life  for  his  country 
and  her  sacred  cause.  An  able  student  and  a 
modest,  attractive  personality — known,  too,,  as  a 
runner  and  member  of  the  Harriers'  Club — he 
was  deeply  mourned  by  his  comrades  both  in 
the  University  and  in  the  Regiment.  His  Cap- 
tain calls  him  "certainly  one  of  the  keenest 
members  of  my  company  .  .  .  altogether  a  most 
likeable  man  and  one  of  the  best  ". 

MacRAE,  VICTOR  CHARLES  JAMES: 
Sergeant,  4th  Battalion  Gordon  High- 
landers ;  son  of  Donald  MacRae,  station- 
master ;  born  Inverness,  12  October  1892; 


educated  Plockton  Higher  Grade  Public  School, 

and  Aberdeen  Grammar  School;  entered  the 
University  as  8th  Bur- 
sar in  1910,  graduated 
M.A.,  1914,  with  First 
Class  Honours  in 
Classics — a  remarkable 
performance,  as  by  a 
chain  of  unforeseen 
circumstances,  he  had 
tu  undertake  the  ne- 
n-ssary  work  within 
one  year.  His  Profes- 
sor wrote: — "he  was 
a  strikingly  able  stu- 
dent ". 

While  still  at  the  Grammar  School,  he  had 
joined  "  D  "  (then  the  School)  Company  of  the 
4th  Battalion  Gordon  Highlanders.  With  it  he 
was  mobilized  in  August  1914,  and  crossed  to 
France  in  1915.  A  few  weeks  later,  on  21 
April  1915,  he  was  killed,  while  attempting  to 
remove  a  wounded  comrade  from  a  dangerous 
corner.  That  sniper's  bullet  ended  a  career  of 
unusual  possibilities,  for  Victor  MacRae  had  a 
brain  and  a  personality  that  might  have  carried 
him  to  the  top  of  almost  any  ladder  he  chose  to 
climb.  He  had  versatility  without  shallowness, 
and  a  humorous  philosophy  of  life  that  would 
have  kept  him  unchanged  through  any  vicissitude. 

SKINNER,     ALEXANDER:     Sergeant,

educated  Dingwall 
Academy ;  Glasgow 
Technical  College  ; 
Aberdeen  Provincial 
Training  College; 
Aberdeen  University 
(Arts  and  Science, 
1909-11).  He  joined 
"  U  "  Coy.,  Gordon 
Highlanders  while  in 
Aberdeen.  On  being 
appointed  assistant  master  and  manual  instructor 
of  the  Supplementary  School,  Dumbarton,  he 
continued  a  member  of  the  University  Company.

a  lew  weeks  out  when  he  was  wounded  in  the 
trenches  near  Kemmel.  He  died  in  hospital  at 
Bailleul  from  the  effects  of  the  wound  on  28  April 


Keith  Mackay  was  one  who  took  a  foremost 
place  among  his  contemporaries  both  in  work 
and  in  the  social  side  of  School  and  'Varsity 
life,  and  he  gave  great  promise  of  success  in  his 
chosen  profession  of  medicine.

1911  he  came  up  to 
the  University,  and  was 
just  finishing  his  Arts 
course  with  a  view  to 
entering  the  teaching 
profession,  when  war 
was  declared.

who  responded  early 
to  the  appeal  for  men, 
and  left  for  Bedford 
with  the  first  draft  of 
the  4th  Gordons.  After  a  few  months  spent  in 
training,  he  was  sent  out  to  France,  and  was 
soon  in  action.  It  was  whilst  digging  a  com- 
munication trench  near  Kemmel  that  he  was 
hit  by  a  stray  bullet  and  received  the  wound 
which  proved  fatal.  He  died  next  day  —  28 
April  1915  —  in  a  Field  Hospital.  Mitchell 
proved  himself  at  college,  in  the  hard  mon- 
otonous work  of  the  field,  as  well  as  in  action, 
willing,  modest  and  courageous.

At  the  outbreak  of  war  Gordon  was  on  fur- 
lough. He  at  once  entered  the  Special  Reserve 
of  Officers,  and  received  a  commission  in  the 
i2th  Royal  Lancers.  On  30  April  1915  he 
fell  in  action  in  France.  His  Indian  record  was 
one  of  courage  and  character,  and  gave  promise 
of  even  greater  distinction  than  he  had  already 
achieved.  The  Lieutenant-Governor  of  the 
Province,  in  a  letter  to  the  "  Punjab  Gazette," 
recalls  the  difficult  and  dangerous  situations 
which  he  had  had  to  face  in  the  pursuance  of 
his  duty,  and  which  he  had  always  met  with 
intrepid  coolness;  and  speaks  of  him  as  "a 
gallant  officer  and  a  fearless  gentleman  ". 

KNOWLES,  JOHN  FORBES:  Private, 
4th  Battalion  Gordon  Highlanders;  son 

of  George  Knowles,

Grammar  School; 
graduated  M.  A.,  1912; 
entered  the  U.F.  Col- 
lege in  the  same  year 
and  continued  his 
studies  there  till  the

In  October  1914  he 
rejoined  "  U  "  Com- 
pany, 4th  Gordon 

Highlanders,  in  which  he  had  served  in  his 
student  days.  Though  his  health  was  not  robust, 
Knowles  stuck  to  soldiering  and  had  just  re- 
joined the  Battalion  from  hospital  the  day  before 
his  death.  He  was  the  first  of  the  U.F. 
College  students  to  enlist  and  the  first  to  fall, 
being  killed  by  a  sniper's  bullet  in  the  neigh- 
bourhood of  Ypres  on  5  May  1915. 

His  genial  sunny  temperament  made  Knowles 
a  favourite  with  his  fellow-students.  His  ex- 
ceptional gifts  as  an  elocutionist,  combined  with 
his  scholarship,  pointed  to  a  distinguished  career 
as  a  preacher.  He  was  an  active  and  successful 
worker  in  the  Mission  carried  on  by  the  U.F. 
students  in  the  East  end  of  Aberdeen.

the  University  as  a  student  in  Agriculture,  1913. 

His    bright  and 

cheery  nature  was  al-  BBRm^^^^BB  1 
ready  making  him  very 
popular  among  his  fel- 
lou-students  when,  as 
a  member  of  "  U " 
Company,  4th  Gor- 
dons, he  was  mobilized 
in  August  1914.  In 
February  1915  he  went 
overseas  with  his  unit, 
one  of  the  youngest 
students  in  the  com-

in  action  on  7  May  1915  at  Kemmel,  Belgium,

"E  "  Company,  4th 
Gordon  Highlanders, 
and  was  mobilized 

August  1914.  During  his  training  at  Bedford 
he  proved  himself  so  efficient  in  signalling  that 
he  was  transferred  to  the  5ist  (Highland  Divi- 
sional) Signal  Company,  R.E.  In  April  1915 
he  went  with  his  Company  to  France,  and  a  few 
weeks  later,  on  27  May  1915,  he  died  of  wounds 
ived  in  action  at  Vieille  Chappelle.  Testi- 
mony to  his  work  was  borne  by  the  words  of  his 
C.O.,  who  wrote :  "  One  of  the  finest  young 
soldiers  I  ever  met,  always  ready  and  willing  to 
do  his  work  any  time,  and  when  we  were  very 
busy  quite  pleased  to  work  his  twelve  hours 
without  grumbling  ". 

-MI  DDL  ET  OX,   ROBERT    HUGH:   Pri- 

\atc.  1th  Battalion  Gordon  Highlanders  ; 

son  of  David  Middleton,  farmer;  born  Liver- 
pool, 5  December  1892;  educated  Robert  Gor- 
illege,  Aberdeen;  matriculated  in  Arts, 
1912.  At  the  University  he  showed  exceptional 
talent  and  ability  as  an  English  scholar.  To 
"  Alma  Mater  "  he  was  a  frequent  contributor  of 
prose  and  verse  which  showed  real  gifts,  wide 
reading  and  much  originality. 


Enlisting  in  the  University  Company  of  the 
4th  Gordons  in  1913,  Middleton  trained  with 
them  at  Bedford  and 
served  with  his  unit  in 
Flanders,  till  he  was 
killed  in  action  at 
Hoogc,  i  June  1915. 
A  University  friend 
who  was  with  him  in 
the  trenches  wrote : 
'•  He  was  not  one  of 
those  who  grow  less 
lovable  as  they  grow 
more  intimately 
k  n  o  w  n ,  because  he 
had  sympathy,  taste 

and  understanding".  With  his  eyes  open,  re- 
alizing all  the  sacrifice  he  might  be  called  upon 
to  make,  he  yet  was  "  eager  for  the  gloriou 
glad  adventure,"  and,. following  the  path  of  duty. 
joined  the  ranks  of  those-  "  whose  life  was  all  to- 
morrow— and  they  died  to-day." 

GUTHRIE,  HECTOR  MacLEXXAX: 
Lieutenant,  3rd  Battalion  Lanca- 
shire Fusiliers; 

son  of  James  Guthrie, 
commercial  traveller; 
born  Portsoy,  1 1  July 
1892;  educated  at 
Fordyce  Academy; 
entered  Aberdeen 
University  as  2nd 
Bursar,  1910;  gradu- 
ated M.A.  with  F'irst 
Class  Honours  in 
English,  in  1914. 
Though  he  died  "  un- 
known to  fame,"  those  who  knew  Guthrie  in 
his  student  days  felt  that,  with  his  love  of 
literature,  his  wealth  of  knowledge  and  his 
naturally  easy  and  beautiful  style,  he  would  have 
made  a  place  for  himself  in  the  higher  ranks  of 
students  and  writers  of  English. 

A  sergeant  in  "  U  "  Company  of  the  4th  Bat- 
talion Gordon  Highlanders,  he  proceeded  to 
Bedford  for  service  with  the  Battalion  in  August 
1914.  Eager  to  increase  his  chances  of  being 
sent  to  the  Front  early  in  the  war,  he  applied  for 
and  obtained  a  commission  in  the  3rd  Battalion 


IN  MEM  OKI  AM. 


.ishire  Fusiliers  (S.R.)  in  October  1914. 
In  May  1915  he  was  sent  to  the  Dardanelles. 
Within  a  month  he  was  reported  missing  after 
an  attack  on  the  Turkish  trenches.  His  death 
on  4  June  1915  was  later  officially  confirmed. 
Thus  were  cut  off  a  character  of  uncompromising 
honour  and  an  intellect  of  exceptional  keen- 
ness. 

CUMMING,    MARIANUS    ALEXANDER: 

Lance-Corporal,  4th  Battalion  Gordon

educated  Maud  H.G. 
School  and  Gordon's 
College  ;  took  a  high 
place  in  the  Bursary 
competition ;  graduated 
M.A.,  1912  ;  Assistant 
Master  at  Kern  nay. 
He  was  considered,  by 
those  who  came  in  con- 
tact with  him  profes- 
sionally, as  a  teacher  of  promise  much  above 
the  average. 

As  a  student,  Gumming  was  an  enthusiastic 
volunteer,  enlisted  in  "U"  Company  in  1910, 
remaining  a  member  after  he  left  the  University. 
He  was  called  up  at  the  outbreak  of  war.  After 
training  at  Bedford  he  served  in  Flanders  with 
the  Machine  Gun  Section,  4th  Gordon  High- 
landers, till  13  June  1915,  when  he  fell  in 
action.

educated  Gordon's 
College,  and  the  Uni- 
versity, where  he  ma- 
triculated in  1912.  He 
studied  in  Arts  for  two 
years,  with  the  intention 
of  proceeding  to  Medi- 
cine. He  was  a  stu- 


dent of  fine  promise  and  also  took  a  prominent 
part  in  sports  both  at  school  and  the  University. 
In  September  1914  he  enlisted  in  the  4th 
Gordon  Highlanders  and  went  with  the  Battalion 
to  France  as  a  member  of  the  Machine  Gun 
Section.  He  proved  himself  of  much  value, 
and  carried  out  all  his  duties  quietly  and  effici- 
ently, showing  himself  to  be  the  true  sportsman, 
whose  qualities  could  endure  a  sterner  test  than 
that  of  the  playing  field.  He  was  killed  in 
action  at  Hooge,  16  June  1915.

war  broke  off  his 
studies. 

He  put  in  his  period  of  Territorial  training 
with  the  Ross  Mountain  Battery  during  his 
secondary  course  at  school,  and  on  going  to 
Aberdeen  joined  the  University  Company  of  the 
Gordon  Highlanders,  with  which  he  was  mobil- 
ized on  the  outbreak  of  war.  After  five  months 
of  training  at  Bedford  he  went  to  Flanders, 
where  he  took  part  with  his  Battalion  in  the 
very  heavy  fighting  in  front  of  Ypres  through 
the  early  months  of  1915.  He  was  killed  in 
action  there  during  an  advance  against  the 
enemy  on  16  June  1915,  when  "our  men  be- 
haved magnificently,"  and  the  Gordons  covered 
themselves  with  glory.

his  death,  he  showed  himself  a  leader  of  daunt- 
-.pirit,  regardless  of  personal  danger.  A 
fellow-officer  wrote:  "He  made  a  magnificent 
officer,  and  a  very  cheer)-  trench  companion". 
He  w.is  killed  at  Fcstubert  while  entcnr 
German  trench  with  a  party  of  bombers  on  16 
June  1915.

Auchentumb,  Stnchen; 
born  9  July  1888  ;  edu-

University  as  a  student 
in  Agriculture,  1906. 
He  took  the  University

Diploma  in  Dairying,  1910.  He  was  appointed 
Assistant-Lecturer  in  Agriculture  for  the  Counties 
<>t  Inverness,  Koss  and  Cromarty  in  1909,  which 
post  he  held  till  September  1912,  when  he  was 
appointed  County  Organizer  for  Orkney. 

\\  hen    war    broke     out    Fowlie    immediately 
asked    the    College    to    relieve  him    of  his  ap- 
pointment, and    in  September   1914  he  joined 
Company  of  the  4th  Gordons  as  a  Private. 
After    training    at    Ripon   he    crossed  with   the 


Battalion  to  France  in  February  1915.  On 
16  June  the  4th  Gordons  were.-  engaged  in 
the  severe  and  successful  action  on  the  lielle- 
warde  Ridge,  east  of  Yprcs,  and  "  1  >  "  (  'onipany

Convener  of  the  County

educated  Fordyce  Aca- 
demy; student  in  Agri- 
culture, 191 1-14. 

While  in  the  Agri- 
cultural 1  )epartment  he 
was  a  member  of  "  U" 
Company,  and  went  on 
Military  Service  with 
the  4th  Gordons  at 
the  outbreak  of  war.  He  crossed  to  France 
at  the  beginning  of  February  1915,  and  was 
killed  at  Hooge  on  17  June  in  the  same  year. 


GORDON,         ROBERT         PATRICK 

Private,  4th  Battalion  Gordon  Hii;h 
landers;  son  of  James 
A.  Gordon,  farmer ; 
born  Kennethmont,  5 
August  1895.  After 
an  excellent  school 
career  he  matricu- 
lated at  the  University 
in  1912,  and  was  a 
student  in  Arts  till 
the  outbreak  of  war. 

He  joined  the  Uni- 
versity Company  early 
in  his  course,  and 
applied  himself  to  his 
training  with  such  zeal  and  interest  that  he  soon 
gained  the  complete  N.C.O.'s  Proficiency 
Certificate.  After  mobilization  and  training  in 
Bedford  he  arrived  in  France  with  his  Battalion 
in  February  1915.  He  took  part  in  the  routine

trench  warfare  of  Flanders  during  the  spring  of 
that  year,  and  was  killed  in  action  in  the  brave- 
assault  on  the  German  lines  in  a  wood  near 
Hooge  on  17  June  1915. 

Gordon  represented  the  best  type  of  the 
shrewd,  level-headed  farming  class  of  the  North- 
East  of  Scotland.  He  wanted  education  and  he 
came  up  to  the  University  that  he  might  get  it 
in  the  widest  sense  of  the  word.  Over  in  France 
he  displayed  the  same  thoroughness  and  con- 
scientiousness, the  same  devotion  to  duty  and 
to  the  matter  in  hand  as  he  had  done  at  home. 
He  was  only  19  when  he  died — his  death  has 
been  aptly  described  as  "the  fall  of  the  un- 
ripenecl  fruit ". 

WHYTE,  JAMES:  Lance-Corporal,  4th 
Battalion  Gordon  Highlanders; 

son  of  James  Whyte, 
crofter  ;  born  Tarves, 
3  May  1 894.  After 
a  highly  successful 
school  record  at  Tarves 
Public  School,  he 
matriculated  as  an 
Arts  student  in 
October  1912,  with 
a  view  to  becoming 
a  teacher.  Concur- 
rently with  his  Uni- 
versity course  he 
became  a  student  at 

the  Training  Centre  and  took  a  very  active  part 
in  the  social  side  of  the  College,  and  in  1913-14 
was  vice-president  of  its  Debating  Society. 

Enlisting  in  the  University  Company  of  the 
4th  Gordons  in  June  1913,  he  immediately 
entered  into  the  spirit  of  the  peace  time  train- 
ing, and  in  August  1914  was  mobilized  with  his 
unit.  After  a  term  of  service  at  Bedford,  where 
he  became  a.  Lance-Corporal,  he  went  to  France 
with  the  Battalion  in  February  1915,  sharing  in 
the  severe  routine  trench  work  of  that  Spring. 
He  received  a  fatal  wound  during  an  attack  in 
which  his  Battalion  took  part  near  Ypres,  18 
June  1915. 

DUNCAN,     ALEXANDER      DAVID: 

Lance-Sergeant,  4th  Battalion  Gordon 
Highlanders  ;  son  of  Alexander  Duncan, 


farmer;  born  Ellon,  23  September  1893;  edu- 
cated at  Gordon's  College,  Aberdeen ;  gradu- 
ated M.A.,  1914.  He 
was  well  known  and 
highly  esteemed  among 
his  fellow-students  for 
his  sterling  character, 
his  sound  clear  think- 
ing and  his  spirit  of 
good  comradeship.  It 
is  certain  that  by  his 
death  his  prospective 
profession,  the  Ministry, 
lost  one  who  would  have 
carried  on  most  worthily 
its  best  traditions. 

He  joined  the  4th  Gordons  in  his  school  days, 
entering  the  newly  formed  school  section  of  "  E  " 
Company,  and  later,  after  matriculating,  he  trans- 
ferred to  the  University  Company.  On  the  out- 
break of  the  war  he  was  mobilized  with  his  fellow- 
students  and  Territorials,  and  while  under  training 
at  Bedford  he  became  attached  to  the  Machine 
Gun  Section.  On  the  Battalion's  proceeding  to 
France  in  F'ebruary  1915,  he  proved  himself  a 
very  efficient  and  level-headed  member  of  his 
section  and  was  soon  appointed  a  Lance-Sergeant. 
In  the  heavy  fighting  in  which  the  Battalion  took 
its  full  share  on  17  June  on  the  Menin  Road 
near  Ypres,  Duncan  was  mortally  wounded,  and 
died  a  few  days  later  at  Wimereux,  25  June  1915.

was  a  solicitor  with 
Messrs.  Hunter  and

Aberdeen. 

As  an  undergradu-

in  action  at  Hooge  when  leading  a  party  of 
bomber.,.  He  was  mentioned  in  dispatches, 
30  November  1915.  Socially  Allardyce's  was  a 
most  likeable  personality;  his  qualities  as  a 
debater  gave  promise  that  he  would  make  his 
mark  in  his  profession,  and  at  the  Front  "  his 
name  was  known  for  deeds  of  bravery  ".

(3rd  Bursar  in  Arts), 
October  1914. 

In  April  1915  he 
enlisted  in  the  3rd

ceeded with   his   Battalion   to   Belgium  in  June. 
About  a  month  later  he  died  of  wounds  ret

THOMSON,  JOHN  MACLEAN :  Sergeant, 
4th  Battalion  Gordon  Highlanders  ; 

son  of  lames  G.  Thom- 
son,  cabinetmaker, 
Fochabers;  born 
Focbabers,  2  Septem- 
ber 1889;  graduated 
M.A.  in  1911.  He 
was  an  excellent  speci- 
men of  what  used  to 
be  a  common  type  of 
Scottish  student  who, 
faced  by  serious  ob- 
stacles, contrived  to 
make  their  way  to  a 
University  and  pro- 
fessional education.  He  studied  at  Aberdeen 
I '.I1.  College  from  1911-14. 

At  the  outbreak  of  war  he  was  in  charge  of 
a  Mission  in  Canada.  Thomson  was  one  of 
the  earliest  and  the  most  eager  of  the  band  of 
volunteers  who  abandoned  their  studies  to  take 
up  military  service.  As  a  sergeant,  he  displayed 
qualities  which  would,  had  he  been  spared, 
undoubtedly  have  led  to  a  brilliant  military 
career.  He  fell  a  victim  to  a  sniper's  bullet  in 
the  trenches  near  Ypres  on  22  July  1915.  A 
student  of  no  mean  attainments,  he  was  also 
an  athlete  and  in  every  sense  a  "  sportsman  " 
and  a  "good  fellow".  His  enthusiasm  found 
vent  equally  in  Mission  work  in  the  slums  of 
Aberdeen,  on  the  football  field,  and  in  the 
trenches. 

KELLAS,    ARTHUR:    Major,     R.A.M.C.  ; 

son  of  James  F.  Kellas ;  born  Aberdeen,  i 
March  1883  ;  educated  Aberdeen  Grammar 
School;  graduated  M.B.,  1906;  D.P.H.,  1907. 
He  was  doing  valuable  work  as  Senior  Assistant 
at  the  Royal  Asylum,  Aberdeen,  when  war  broke 
out. 

In  1901  Kellas  joined  the  R.A.M.C.  (T.F.), 
and  later  the  University  Corps  of  the  Scottish 
Horse.  In  1909  he  was  commissioned  in  the 
R.A.M.C.,  and  on  the  outbreak  of  war  was  mobi-

li/ed  as  a  Captain  with  the  ist  Highland  Field 
Ambulance.  At  Bedford  he  proved  a  keen 
and  efficient  section 
commander,  whose 
obvious  fairness  and 
justice  earned  the  com- 
plete confidence  and 
devotion  of  his  men, 
in  spite  of  the  strict- 
ness of  his  discipline. 
The  unit  proceeded  to 
Gallipoli  as  part  of  the 
29th  Division,  and  in 
that  strenuous  and 
unique  campaign  he 
did  gallant  work  in  the 

forward  area,  until  he  was  killed  on  the  morning 
of  the  6th  August  1915,  while  making  a  final 
inspection  before  an  impending  battle  at  Cape 
Helles,  which  was  to  cover  the  opening  moves 
of  the  Suvla  Hay  landing.  Thus  gallantly  died 
an  officer  who  had  not  only  a  fine  reputation  in 
his  own  unit,  but  also  in  a  famous  Division  which 
had  performed  a  feat  unparalleled  in  history. 

Kellas  was  a  man  of  great  reserve  and  only 
his  intimates  could  appreciate  his  high  ideals, 
his  keen  sense  of  humour  and  his  full  enjoyment 
of  life.  He  was  a  delightful  companion,  a  keen 
observer  with  a  great  gift  for  detail  and  for  logical 
analysis  ;  this  was  no  doubt  developed  in  the 
thorough  training  he  went  through  for  his  pro- 
fessional work  in  Mental  Science,  to  which 
branch  of  medicine  his  early  death  was  an  un- 
doubted loss. 

ROSE,  FREDERICK  ALEXAN- 
DER: 2nd  Lieutenant,  4th  Battalion 
Gordon  Highland- 
ers ;  son  of  Hugh 
Rose,  builder ;  born 
Huntly,  1 8  September 
1890;  educated  at  the 
Gordon  Schools, 
Huntly  ;  entered  the 
University  in  1907  as 
Second  Bursar.  He 
took  a  good  place  in  all 
his  classes  ;  and  gradu- 
ated M.A.,  1911,  with 
P'irst  Class  Honours 


in  English.  For  a  year  he  acted  as  assistant 
in  English  and  in  1911  entered  Christ  Church, 
Oxford,  winning  the  Douglas  Jerrold  Scholar- 
ship. While  an  undergraduate  he  gained  the 
Charles  Oldham  University  Scholarship  by  a 
paper  on  Shakespeare.  He  graduated  at  Ox- 
ford with  First  Class  Honours  in  1913.  He  was 
immediately  elected  to  a  post-graduate  Scholar- 
ship and  was  beginning  to  prepare  a  thesis  on 
Fulke  Greville,  Lord  Brooke,  and  an  edition  of 
his  difficult  poems,  when  the  war  broke  out. 

Rose  at  once  joined  the  Officers  Training 
Corps  and  was  soon  gazetted  to  the  3rd  Gordons. 
In  the  early  Summer  of  1915  he  was  ordered  to 
join  the  4th  Battalion  in  F'rance,  but  had  not 
been  out  many  weeks  when,  the  line  being 
heavily  shelled,  he  came  out  from  the  dug-out 
in  which  he  was  resting  to  steady  and  encourage 
his  men,  and  was  struck  and  killed  by  a  bursting 
shell,  10  August  1915.  So  died  a  very  fine 
gentleman,  modest,  courageous,  honourable  and 
one  who  would,  had  he  lived,  have  become 
a  great  scholar,  for  he  had  all  the  natural 
aptitudes  and  was  training  himself  patiently  in 
the  fine  discipline  which  alone  can  produce  that 
rare  thing  the  genuine  scholar  and  critic.

capacity  the  ship  was  torpedoed  in  the  Straits  of 
Dover,  31  October  1914,  and  Mowat  received 
the  thanks  of  the  Lords  of  the  Admiralty  for 
his  good  work  on  that  occasion.  In  November 
1914  he  was  appointed  to  H.M.S.  "Otway,"

— his  shrewdness  and 

downrightness,  his  thoughtfulness  for  others,  his 
forgetfulness  of  himself,  his  audacity  and  his 
incomparable  courage  and  resource — all  these 
made  him  invaluable  in  the  battlefield  and  in

Souchez.  In  the  desperate  fighting  Dieterlen 
was  last  seen  severely  wounded.  He  was  offici- 
ally reported  "  missing,"  and  since  the  Armistice 
his  death  has  been  accepted. 

A  devoted  Christian,  and  a  loyal  Frenchman, 
he  recognized  at  once  the  justice  of  the  cause 
to  which  his  country  was  suddenly  called,  and 
unhesitatingly  put  himself  at  her  disposal. 
Having  dedicated  his  life  to  the  service  of 
humanity,  he  found  an  equal  duty  and  an 
equal  glory  in  carrying  the  Gospel  to  the  heathen, 
and  in  fighting  enemies  to  those  spiritual  ideals 
which  are  essential  to  the  progress  of  the  race. 
In  our  University,  of  which  he  cherished  grateful 
recollections,  he  is  remembered  for  the  purity 
and  kindliness  of  his  character,  and  for  his 
keenness  as  a  student. 


CALDER,  GEORGE 
M  A  C  B  E  T  H  :  2nd 
Lieutenant,  Sea- 
forth  Highlanders; 

son  of  George  M.  Cal- 
der,  inspector  of  poor, 
Edinkillie ;  born  Edin- 
killie,  Morayshire,  29 
May  1891.  After  an 
elementary  education 
at  Logic  School,  he 
attended  Gordon's 


College,  Aberdeen,  where  he  distinguished 
himself  both  as  a  student  and  as  an  athlete. 
Entering  the  University  in  1910,  he  not 
only  completed  an  Arts  course  in  which  he 
showed  special  aptitude  for  languages,  both 
Classical  and  Modern,  but  also  studied  Medicine, 
1912-14.  He  was  a  well-known  figure  in  the 
social  life  of  the  University,  and  his  popularity 
is  evidenced  by  the  fact  that  each  year  of  his 
University  course  he  was  elected  a  Member 
of  the  S.R.C. 

In  1911  he  joined  "U"  Company,  4th  Gor- 
dons, and  was  shortly  afterwards  promoted  to  the 
rank  of  Sergeant.  Mobilized  at  the  outbreak  of 
war,  after  training  at  Bedford,  he  proceeded  over- 
seas  with  his  regiment  in  February  1915.  In 
March  1915  he  was  commissioned  to  the  8th  Sc.-a- 
forths,  and  embarked  again  for  France  in  July 
1915.  His  death,  on  25  September  1915  at  the 
battle  of  Loos,  cut  short  a  life  marked  by  rare 
ability  and  rich  promise.

versity Company  of  the 
4th  Gordons  just  prior  to  the  war.  After  doing 
the  annual  camp  training,  he  was  mobilized  with 
his  unit  in  August  1914,  volunteering  at  once 
for  foreign  service.  In  Bedford  he  was  trained 
for  active  service  and  went  to  France  with  the 
Battalion  in  February  1915.  He  served  effic- 
iently during  that  spring  and  summer  while  the 
Battalion  were  in  Flanders,  was  twice  wounded, 
and  during  the  severe  fighting  in  autumn  1915 
was  killed  in  action  at  Loos  between  25  and  29 
September  1915.

July  KM?,  and  fought  with  them  in  the  heavy 
fighting  at  Loos  where  lie  \\as  killed,  25  Sep- 
ti  niber  1915.  Of  Fraser  it  could  be  truly  said 
that  he  lived  his  life  in  short  measures,  two 
sessions  at  the  University,  6  months  of  training, 
7  months  of  active  service,  and  he  was  only  19 
when  he  fell  ;  already  he  had  shown  that  he  had 
the  rare  gift  of  infectious  enthusiasm,  which  in- 
spired others  to  do  and  dare  along  with  him, 
alike  in  the  playing  field  at  King's  and  in  the 
battle-fields  of  Flanders.

mended for  the  D.C.M.,  and  singled  out  for 
promotion.  After  a  course  of  training  at  St.

4th  Gordon  Highlanders.      He  was  mobilized  on 


He  enlisted  in  the 
R.A.M.C.,  September  1914,  was  attached  to  the 
44th  Field  Ambulance,  and  trained  at  Aldershot 
till  December.  In  January  1915  he  received  a 
commission  in  the  S.R.O.  and  was  attached  to 
the  3rd  Gordons.  Proceeding  to  the  French 
Front  in  May,  he  joined  the  2nd  Battalion 
and  proved  his  efficiency  as  a  bombing  officer. 
On  25  September,  when  the  Battalion  charged 
from  their  trench  before  Vermelles,  he  gallantly 
led  the  bombers  as  far  as  Hulluch  on  the  third 
German  line,  where  he  fell  during  the  German 
counter-attack  in  the  afternoon. 

He  had  exceptional  ability  as  a  student  and 
was  very  popular.  Beneath  an  easy  manner 
"there  was  a  sternness  and  enthusiasm  only 
evident  to  his  best  friends,  perhaps,  and  when 
he  was  confronted  by  a  difficult  and  dangerous 
task.  It  was  that  sternness  and  enthusiasm

which  made  him  the  hero  he  was."  So  con- 
spicuous was  his  braver)-  in  his  last  fight  that 
they  wrote  of  him  :  "If  ever  a  soldier  deserved 
the  Victoria  Cross.  IK-  did  ;  and  had  he  lived  he 
would  have  gained  it.  This  is  the  opinion  of 
his  men  and  of  the  officers  who  saw  him." 

MacPHERSOX,  JOHN  COOK:   2nd   Lieu- 
tenant, 3rd  Battalion  (attd.  1st  Battalion) 
Gordon      High- 
landers;    son     of 

Rev.  R.  Macpherson, 
D.I). ;  born  Elgin,  30 
January  1886;  gradu- 
ated M.A.  and  LL.B., 
1910  ;  Hunter  Medal 
in  Roman  Law  ;  Glad- 
stone Memorial  Pri/.e. 
At  the  outbreak  of  war 
he  was  in  Edinburgh 
where  he  was  engaged 
in  the  Solicitor's  De- 
partment of  the  North 
British  Railway  Company. 

During  his  student  days  he  was  a  Private  in 
"  U "  Company,  Gordon  Highlanders  and  in 
September  1914,  although  his  health  had  never 
been  robust,  he  enlisted  in  the  gth  Battalion 
Royal  Scots  and  went  to  France  with  his  regi- 
ment early  in  1915.  Shortly  afterwards  he  was 
commissioned  to  the  i  ith  Battalion  and  attached 
to  the  3rd  Battalion  Gordon  Highlanders.  After 
further  training  he  was  attached  to  the  ist  Bat- 
talion of  the  regiment  and  was  serving  with  them 
in  France  when  he  was  killed  in  action,  leading 
the  remnant  of  his  Company  at  the  third  attempt 
to  get  through  the  wire  entanglement  during  the 
severe  fighting  at  Loos,  25  September  1915. 

His  personality  was  one  of  unusual  charm,  and 
his  kindly  and  genial  manner  had  gained  for 
him  a  wide  circle  of  friends.  In  literature  and 
art  he  took  a  keen  interest,  and  was  Editor 
of  "Alma  Mater".  A  slightly  dilettante  atti- 
tude concealed  to  some  extent  his  more  solid 
characteristics,  but  the  war  swept  aside  what 
was  never  more  than  an  attractive  pose  and 
brought  out  the  true  nature  of  the  man.  By 
his  friends,  Macpherson  will  be  remembered  as 
an  example  of  the  best  type  which  the  Scottish 
Universities  produce. 


MACQUEEN,  JOHN  ELLISON:  Lieuten- 
ant-Colonel, (ith  Battalion  Gordon  High- 
landers ;  eldest  son  of 
John  Otto  Macqueen, 
S.S.C.,  Aberdeen  ;  born 
Aberdeen,  3  June  1875. 
He  was  an  alumnus  of 
the  University  (1891- 
9  5)  and  became  a 
member  of  the  Society 
of  Advocates  in  Aber- 
deen in  1900  and  was 
in  partnership  with  his 
father  and  afterwards 
with  Mr.  H.  J.  Find- 
later,  W.S.  In  1896 
he  was  commissioned  to  the  ist  V.B.  Gordon 
Highlanders  and  retired  as  Major  in  1910. 

On  25  September  1914  he  was  gazetted 
Lieut. -Colonel  to  command  the  2/4th  Battalion 
Gordon  Highlanders  (T.F.)  which  was  then 
being  raised,  and  for  some  months  he  was 
engaged  in  recruiting  in  Aberdeen  and  train- 
ing at  various  Home  stations  that  unit  which 
he  brought  to  a  high  standard  of  efficiency. 
His  ambition  was  to  lead  the  Battalion  in 
action,  but  the  general  military  situation  pre- 
vented this,  and  in  the  summer  of  1915  he  was 
appointed  to  command  the  6th  Battalion  Gordon 
Highlanders  in  the  field,  in  succession  to  Lieut.- 
Colonel  McLean  who  had  fallen  at  Neuve  Cha- 
pelle.  This  was  a  high  honour  for  a  Territorial 
officer  who  had  not  been  overseas,  and  a  notable 
tribute  to  his  military  capacity.  He  went  to 
a  unit  which  had  already  won  a  great  repu- 
tation in  France  and  was  to  enhance  this  in 
many  subsequent  actions.  In  the  battle  of 
Loos  on  25  September  1915,  he  was  killed  while 
leading  the  assault  on  Hulluch  in  which  the 
Battalion  suffered  very  heavy  casualties.  He 
was  mentioned  in  Field-Marshal  French's  dis- 
patch of  i  January  1916.

Gordon's  College ;  entered  the  University  in 
1909;  graduated  M.A.  (Hons.  Eng.),  1913,  and

appointment  in  London.      As  an  undergraduate 
he  I.  'ling  part  in  the  life  of  the  Uni- 

versity, being  editor  of 
"Alma   Mater"  (191  i- 
i  2),  and  later  pre-ident 
of  the  Literary  Society. 
Mason    was    among 
the  first  volunteers  for 
active  service,  and  was 
.1    Private    in    "D" 
Company, 4th  Gordons. 
After  training   in    I 
land    he    crossed    to 
France  with   the  i/4th 
Gordon  Highlanders  in 
1915,  and  was  killed  in 
Mtember    1915,    in    one    of   those 
"breathless  episodes''  in  the  fierce  fighting  near 
Loos.      lack    Mason  was  a  man  with    many  ac- 
complishments, of  wide  and  varied  interests,  and 
of   cultivated    and    fastidious    tastes.      He    pos- 
d     a     freshness    of    thought    and     a     rare 
..ilny   of   mind,   although   a   certain    light- 
hearted  extravagance  and  exuberance  of  sp 

uealed  a  coolness  and  soundness  of 
nent  and  a  strength  of  character  which  his 
seniors  envied.  Hut  he  will  be  remembered  by 
most  for  his  charm  of  manner,  his  unfailing  gift 
of  humour  and  his  ready  sympathy  with  all 
(lasses  of  men,  which  attracted  and  kept  together 
round  him  a  wide  circle  of  friends  of  the  most 
divergent  interests.

at  Robert  Gordon's 
College,  which  he  en- 
tered as  a  bursar ; 
matriculated  Aberdeen 
University  1905  ; 
graduated  M.A.,  1908  ; 
he  subsequently  ob- 
tained a  good  appoint-

days  he  was  a  noted  athlete,  and  a  well-known 
figure  and  competitor  at  all  the  Highland  gather- 
ings. 

When  the  war  broke  out  Murray  was  one  of 
those  who  early  answered  the  call  of  their 
country.  On  5  September  1914  he  joined  the 
5th  Cameron  Highlanders  (Lochiel's  Camerons), 
and  after  training  in  Kngland  he  went  with  the 
regiment  to  France.  He  and  his  brother  went 
"over  the  top"  on  that  terrible  day  at  the 
battle  of  Loos,  25  September  1915;  he  was 
posted  as  "missing"  and  later  on  as  "presumed 
killed".

commissioned,  and  proceeded  to  France  with 
the  Battalion.  He  was  reported  "missing" 
between  25  and  27  September  1915  and

"Gazette"  for  gallant  and  distinguished  service 
in  the  Field.

regiment  against  the  German  position  between 
Yemielles  and  Hulluch  and  there  fell  25  Septem-

by  the  fact  that  "he  had  so  instructed  his  \.(  '.O.'s

Gold  Medab  In  Octo- 
ber 1909  he  went  up  to  Finnianuel  College, 


Cambridge,  and   in   June   1910  was  elected   to  a 
College   Scholarship,  holding  at   the   same   time 
the    Fullerton   and    Ferguson   Scholarships 
in  Mathematics.      He  left  Cambridge  with  a  First 
in  both  parts  of  the  Mathematical  Tripos, 
joined  the  staff  of  Merchant  Taylor's  Schoo 
was  doing  very  successful  work  in  preparing 
for  Sandhurst  and  the-  Universities. 

In  August  1914  he  enlisted  in  the  4th  Battalion 
(  iordon  Highlanders,  and  soon  afterwards  went  to 
the  Front  with  a  commission  in  the  6th  Gordons. 
To  his  work  as  an  officer  he  brought  the  same 
honourable  and  conscientious  spirit  as  had 
marked  his  student  days,  and  the  splendid 
strength  and  skill  of  body  which  had  made  him 
an  athlete  of  whom  his  College  was  proud. 
When  he  fell  at  l.oos  on  25  September  1915, 
as  a  Lieutenant  of  bomb-throwers,  his  battalion 
lost  a  good  officer  and  his  University  a  distin- 
guished son.  Ouiet  and  modest,  liked  and  re- 
spected by  every  one,  it  was  only  to  his  intimate 
friends  that  he  was  really  known  in  the  bright- 
ness and  charm  of  which  he  was  capable;  and 
it  was  only  such  friends  who  could  realize  and 
appreciate  the  greatness  of  their  loss.

until  March  1915,  when  he  had  the  hard  ex- 
perience of  being  drafted  straight  from  his  own 
home  to  the  Battalion  in  i'rance.  It  was  his 
strong  sense  of  duty  that  took  him  to  France, 
for  he  had  just  gained  in  open  competition  a 
post  under  the  National  Health  Insurance  Com- 
mission and  only  with  much  difficulty  was  he 
allowed  to  continue  on  service.  He  remained

listed in  "U"Company,

training  at  Bedford  he 
went  with  his  llattalion 
to  Flanders,  and  is  un-

tered Aberdeen  U.I''.

highest  place  in  the 
examinations  open  to 
all  the  U.F.  Colleges  ; 
gained  Footc  Scholar- 
ship in  Hebrew  and  Eadie  Pri/.e  in  New  Testa- 
ment Greek. 

He  enlisted  in  October  1914  as  a  Private  in 
the  4th  Gordon  Highlanders;  and  was  sent  to 
Belgium  in  February  1915.  Although  he  could 
readily  have  obtained  a  commission,  he  con- 
tented himself  with  the  rank  of  Sergeant,  be- 
lieving that  as  a  X.C.O.  he  would  be  able  to 
exercise  a  greater  moral  influence  on  his  men. 
The  invaluable  services  he  rendered  by  organiz- 
ing a  corps  of  snipers,  as  well  as  by  the  accurate 
information  he  was  able  to  gain  regarding  the 
German  positions,  were  recognized  in  a  letter 
addressed  to  him  by  the  General  commanding 
the  Division.  He  fell  at  Hooge  on  25  Septem- 
ber 1915. 

A   more  versatile  genius  than   F'orbes    never 


passed  through  Aberdeen  U.F.  College.  A 
tireless  walker,  an  intrepid  mountaineer^  a. 
keen  sportsman,  a  humorist,  a  skilled  musician, 
a  linguist,  a  scholar — no  achievement  seemed 
beyond  his  capacity.  Even  in  the  trenches  he- 
pursued  his  studies,  and  left  behind  him  singu- 
larly able  notes  on  the  Book  of  lob,  which  to 
the  last  he  studied  in  the  Hebrew  original,  with 
the  aid  of  the  latest  German  commentary. 
Those  who  had  the  privilege  of  knowing  him 
will  never  forget  this  distinguished  student  and 
Sniper-Sergeant,  who  was  as  modes)  and  lovable 
as  he  was  gifted.

SANGSTER.  WILLIAM  JOHN  CAMP- 
BELL:  2nd  Lieutenant,  4th  Battalion  Gor-

son  of  William  Sang-

1896;  educated  at 
Aberdeen  G  r  a  m  m  a  r 
School  ;  Christ's  Col- 
lege, Blackheath,  and 
Aberdeen  University  ; 
graduated  M.A.,  1914, 
and  was  studying  for  a 
medical  career. 

He  had  belonged  to 
the  University  6.T.C. 
and  when  war  broke  out  he  immediately  joined 
the  Army,  receiving  his  commission  as  2nd 
Lieutenant  in  the  4th  Gordon  Highlanders, 
3  October  1914.  After  training  at  Aberdeen, 
Bedford,  etc.,  he  crossed  to  France  24  June 
1915.  In  the  ensuing  three  months,  he  proved 
himself  the  type  of  officer  who  is  beloved  and 
trusted  by  his  men.  On  the  fateful  25  Septem- 
ber 1915  Sangster  fell.  He  was  detailed  with  a 
platoon  to  capture  a  portion  of  German  trenches, 
which  he  did  successfully.  With  great  courage 
he  and  his  men  held  on  to  the  position,  later 
it  was  re-captured  by  the  Germans,  the  fighting 
was  fierce,  and  the  traditions  of  the  Gordons 
were  upheld.

4th  Battalion  Gordon  Highlanders; 

son  of  Rev.  Alexander  R.  Saunders ;  born 
Shansi,  North  China,  19  November  1894; 
student  in  Medicine,  1913-14. 

Having  joined  "  U  "  Company,  as  a  Private, 
in  the  spring  of  1914,  Saunders  was  called  up 


on  the  outbreak  of  war,  receiving  a  bonus 
for  being  the  first  of 
his  Company  to  report 
alter  the  issue  of  mobi- 
lization orders.  After 
training  at  Bedford  for 
six  months  he  crossed 
to  France  with  the  Bat- 
talion at  the  end  of 
February,  and  served 
with  them  until  25 
September  1915.  He 
was  reported  first 
"  missing "  and  later 
"  killed  "  at  Hooge  on 
that  date. 

SHANKS,    JOHN     WILLIAM:     Private, 
4th      Battalion      Gordon       Highlanders; 

son  of  John  Shanks, 
inspector  of  collectors  ; 
born  Aberdeen,  4  June 
1893.  He  matricu- 
lated as  a  student  in 
Arts  in  1912,  coming 
to  the  University  with 
a  reputation  as  an  Eng- 
lish scholar  which  he 
subsequently  main- 
tained. He  made  a 
name  for  himself 
among  his  fellow- 
students  by  his  contri- 
butions to  "  Alma  Mater" — his  clear  vivid  prose, 
and  verse  olf  much  real  merit,  being  always  re- 
cognizable. 

Shanks  joined  "U"   Company,  4th  Gordon. 
Highlanders  in  March   1914,  was  called  up   in' 
August,  and,  after  training  in  Bedford,  crossed 
with  the  Battalion  to  France  in  February  1915. 
He    was  reported    missing  at   Hooge  and  was 
afterwards    presumed  killed   on    25    September 


Beauty  in  any  form,  in  nature,  in  literature, 
in  music,  was  to  Shanks  the  thing  that  counted 
most  in  life,  and  it  needed  a  character  of  much 
strength  to  turn  from  the  study  he  loved  to  the 
life  of  the  trenches,  and  to  enter  into  the  spirit 
of  that  life,  the  spirit  of  humour  and  true  com- 
radeship which  alone  made  it  livable.

those  days,  hut  "  Sanely  "  cheerfully  accepted  the 
job  with  all  the  drudgery  it  entailed.  In  this 
ity  he  left  with  the  Battalion  for  France  in 
February  1915.  It  did  not  take  long  under 
rvice  conditions  to  show  that  there  was 
the  real  fighting  stuff  in  Silver.  After  repeated 
attempts  he  got  relieved  of  the  job  which  afforded 
him  comparative  safety.  Alongside  his  old 
fellow-Students  in  the  trenches,  he  was  supremely 
happy.  Hardships  seemed  less  real  when  Silver 
shared  them.  He  took  part  with  the  company 
in  the  attack  from  Sanctuary  Wood  (Hooge)  on

as  missing.

self a  conspicuous  success  when  war  broke

During  his  University  career  Tawse  was  a 
member  of  "  U  "  Company.  In  August  1914  he 
enlisted  in  the  4th  Camerons  and  went  to  France

Of  a  retiring   disposition,  Tawse  never,  either 
at  the  University  or  in  the  Army,  took  the  p 

!ch  his  undoubted  ability  as  scholar,  teacher 
and  soldier  entitled  him.  The  greater  self-con- 
fidence which  time  would  have  given  him  was  all 
that  was  needed  to  bring  him  to  a  foremost  place 
in  his  profession.

fantry ;  son  of  Charles 
Smith,  merchant,  Aber-

5  I  til  v  1889;  educated  at 
the  Grammar  School ; 
student  in  Agriculture, 
1904-05,  and  1908-09. 
Between  these  years  he 
was  for  some  time  in 
New  Zealand  sheep 
farming,  and  while  still 
very  young  did  some 
exploring  and  trading  in 
New  Guinea  and  the 
South  Sea  Islands.  Later  he  led  a  small  ex- 
pedition through  Patagonia,  his  report  on  this 
journey  was  published  in  the  Maga/ine  of  the 
Royal  Scottish  Geographical  Society.  After  his 
nl  period  as  a  student  in  Agriculture  he 
carried  on  stock  farming  in  Rhodesia.  He  was 
an  enthusiastic  member  of  the  Legion  of  Fron- 
tiersmen, of  which  he  acted  for  a  time  as  Com- 
mandant for  Scotland,  and  raised  companies  in 
Aberdeen  and  Kdinburgh. 

On  the  outbreak  of  war  he  hurried  home  from 
Rhodesia  and  was  in  rapid  succession  a  member 
of  a  New  X.raland  Corps,  an  ambulance  driver 
on  the  Melgian  Front,  and  a  horse  artilleryman. 
In  February  1915  he  obtained  a  commission  in 
the  King's  Own  Yorkshire  Light  Infantry  with 
which,  and  the  2 1  st  I  )ivisonal  Cyclists,  he  served 
till  his  adventurous  and  crowded  life  was  ended 
on  26  January  1916  while  he  was  carrying  back 
a  wounded  comrade  after  a  bombing  raid.  For 
his  conduct  on  this  occasion  he  was  mentioned 
in  dispatches.  He  might  have  been  on  leave  at 
the  time  he  was  killed  but  wrote  home,  "What's 
the  good  of  leave  if  you  haven't  done  something 
worth  while  ?  "  So  he  sought  honour  in  another 
gallant  adventure  and  met  death. 

DEWAR  GEORGE:  Lieutenant,  R.A.M.C.; 

son  of  I  )avid  1  )ewar,  draper  ;  born  Peterculter, 
4  January  1893;  educated  at  Gordon's  College, 
Aberdeen ;  and  at  the  University  where  he 
graduated  M.B.  (with  distinction),  in  1915, 
distinguishing  himself  alike  in  his  classes,  and 
on  the  playing  fields.  Throughout  his  Uni- 


versity    career     he     was     conspicuous     in     the 
rugby    team    and    in    the    cricket    eleven    but 
remained   untouched 
by  his   more  than   or- 
dinary popularity   and 
was  genuinely  beloved 
by    a    wide     circle     of 
friends. 

On  the  outbreak  of 
war  he  was  mobilized 
as  a  private  in  the 
R.A.M.C.,  but  in  Oc- 
tober 1914  returned  to 
Aberdeen  to  complete 
his  medical  studies. 
After  his  graduation 

he  rejoined  as  a  Lieutenant  in  the  same  corps 
and  proceeded  in  November  1915  to  France, 
where  he  was  killed  by  a  shell  on  3  February 
1916.  Short  though  his  period  of  service  in 
France  was,  he  had  already  won  the  affectionate 
regard  of  the  "officers  and  men  with  whom  he 
was  associated,  while  his  friends  at  home  and 
abroad  felt  it  hard  that  he,  who  had  exulted  so 
openly  in  the  joyousness  of  life  and  had  ex- 
emplified so  attractively  the  vigour  of  youth, 
should  die  so  young.

and,  in  August  1914,  was  appointed  a  Civil  Sur- 
geon at  the  Alexandra  Hospital,  Cosham.  In 
March  1915  he  obtained  a  commission  in  the'

has  been  said  of  him  by  one  who  knew  him  from 

boyhood's  days  —  "Possessed   of  attainments   of

little  wonder  that  his  short  career  was  so  emi-

ardent  spirit  and  high  sense  of  duty  led  him  to 
seek  .service  with  a  fighting  unit.  Despite  ob- 
jections and  difficulties  raised  by  authorities  in 
Icrsey,  who  wished  to  retain  his  services  in  the

In  November  1915  Watt  enlisted  in  "  K  "  Com- 


pany, R.A.M.C.,  not  that  war,  as  such,  had  any

duty.  After  six  months'

with    a   "saving  sense  of   humour,"  and  at  the 

back    of   it    there    was  a   strong    sense  of   duty 

carried  with  him  from  his  boyhood  spent  among 

his  native  hills  and  glens.

was  going  on.  He  ,,as  attached  to  the  :6th 
Highland  Fight  Infantry  and  had  only  been 
about  fifteen  days  in  1'' ranee  when  he  was  reported 
missing,  and  was  believed  killed,  i  July  1916. 
As  a  teacher  his  work  was  of  a  very  high  < 
and  was  favourably  commented  on  in  all  tin- 
schools  in  which  he  taught.  His  military  service 
was  very  short,  but  he  devoted  himself  as  keenly 
and  as  scrupulously  to  his  soldiering  as  he  had 
done  to  the  teaching  work  that  was  more 
properly  his. 

M  a  c  R  A  E,     ALFRED     R  E  (i  I  N  A  L  D  : 

Assistant     Commissioner     of     Police; 

son  of  Donald  MacRae,  stationmaster ;  born 
Inverness,  26  January  1888.  Educated  at  Aber- 
deen Grammar  School.  On  leaving  the  Univer- 
sity where  he  studied' from  1905-08,  he  took 
the  highest  place  in  the  examination  for  the 
Indian  Police  Service.  Most  of  his  time  in 
India  was  spent  in  Delhi,  where  he  had  the 
chance  of  doing  good  service  at  the  time  of  the

Durbar ;  while  later  he  became  an  officer  of 
the  new  Delhi  Province.  There  he  acted  until 
April  1915,  gaining  a 
reputation  among  his 
superiors  as  one  of  the 
most  promising  officers 
of  the  Punjab  Police. 

In  April  1915  be- 
gan his  more  definite 
war-service.  lie  was 
senl  to  M'  sopotamia 
as  Assistant  Commis- 
sioner of  Police  under 
the  Foreign  and  Politi- 
cal Department  of  the 
Government  of  India. 

There  he  had  the  difficult  and  important  duty 
of  organizing  a  new  police  force,  and  this  was 
a  piece  of  work  which  made  demands  upon 
all  the  skill  in  dealing  with  men,  which  had  always 
characterized  him.  On  i  luly  1916  he  died  of 
cholera  near  Xasiriyeh.  He  was  one  of  the 
many  who  gave  their  lives  for  their  country 
whose  name  appeared  in  no  casualty  list.  Such 
service  as  his,  given  with  simplicity,  modesty  and 
devotion,  lays  the  foundation  of  order  and  peace 
in  restless  anil  unsettled  territory;  and  in  him 
was  lost  not  only  a  man  of  goodness  and  charm, 
but  a.  loyal,  efficient  and  valued  officer  of  the 
Force  he  had  served  so  well.

class  on  the  action  of  bombs,  when  the  bomb 
exploded  in  his  hands  and  killed  him.  His  C.O. 
wrote:  "He  was  an  excellent  officer  in  every 
way  and  had  proved  himself  of  great  value  in  the 
field  on  many  occasions.  ...  1  shall  find  it 
hard  to  fill  his  place  in  the  Battalion."

faculty  of  Arts  from 
1913-15  with  a  view 
to  entering  the  Indian 

Civil    Service.       Short 

though   his  career  was, 

he  showed  himself  both  a  brilliant  and  promis- 
ing scholar  and  a  keen  sportsman.  As  a  class- 
fellow  wrote  :  "In  his  first  year  at  '  King's  '  .  .  . 
he  at  once  became  a  marked  man,  for  his  perfect 
blending  of  work  and  play,  of  social  and  scholastic- 
duties  ". 

MeMain  was  a  member  of  the  Edinburgh  Uni- 
ty O.T.C.  and   was  gazetted  to  the  R.F.A.

r  1915  when  he  went  to  France,  being 
attached   first   to  the  I54th   (Howitzer)  and  was

was  running  a  telephone  wire  over  to  newly- 
captured  trenches.  McBain  was  reported  miss- 
in.;,  then  as  severely  wounded  and  taken  prisoner. 
He  died  in  a  German  Military  Hospital  at  Vrau- 
court,  9  July  1916.  His  brother-officers  and  the 
men  under  him  have  testified  to  the  enthusiasm 
anil  cheerfulness  which  characterized  his  work 


a-*  an  officer.  One  of  his  parts  of  telephonists 
afterwards  wrote  to  his  (.'.(.).:  "Later  on  I 
crawled  out  for  water  and  looked  for  him,  but 
lie  and  the  reel  of  wire  had  disappeared,  so  1 
expect  he  had  most  gallantly  gone  on  running 
the  wire  ...  he  was  a  good  officer  and  a  true 
Scottish  gentleman  ".

K.Sc.,  1910,  with  dis- 
tinction in  Geologv  ; 
appointed  Assistant 
Naturalist  in  National 
Museum,  Dublin, 

1911.  Specialized  in  the  study  of  Myriapoda  and 
( "nistacea,  published  "The  Decapoda  Reptantia 
of  the  Coasts  of  Ireland,  Part  I,  1'almura,  Asta- 
cura  and  Anomura ".  Part  II.  dealing  with 
Paguridea,  was  nearly  ready  for  publication  when, 
in  October  1914,  he  enlisted  as  a  private  in  the 
Royal  Scots. 

Commissioned  2nd  Lieutenant  in  the  nth 
Scottish  Rifles  in  January  1915,  he  went  to  the 
Front  in  November,  was  slightly  wounded  the 
following  F'ebruary,  but  soon  returned  to  duty. 
On  two  occasions  for  considerable  periods,  he 
commanded  his  company  in  the  absence  of  the 
Captain.  He  fell  at  Longueval  on  14  July  1916, 
when,  to  quote  the  Adjutant  "  he  led  his  men 
gallantly  throughout  the  assault,  and  had  the 
satisfaction  of  seeing  the  position  won  before  he 
was  killed  by  a  rifle  bullet  while  heading  a  bomb- 
ing attack  ".  His  death  cut  short  a  very  promis- 

treer  both  as  a  scientist  and  a  soldier.  "  He 
was  a  born  naturalist,  a  love  of  animals  being  one 
of  his  most  marked  characteristics."  He  had 
also  a  sense  of  humour  which  materially  helped 
him  to  endure  the  discomforts  of  life  in  the 
trenches,  while  his  coolness  and  courage  never 
gave  way  in  the  hour  of  danger.

qualified  as  a  solicitor  in  1911  and  took  up  a 
position  in  the  law  office  of  Messrs.  Mac-lay, 
Murray  \:  Spciis,  of  Glasgow. 

He  joined  the  Glasgow  Highlanders  (cjth 
H.L.I.)  in  September  1914  as  a  private,  and, 
feeling  he  could  do  most  good  in  the  ranks,  re- 
fused promotion.  He  saw  much  active  service 
in  France  at  Hethune,  La  liassee,  and  High 
\Vood,  and  was  reported  "missing  "in  the  ad- 
vance on  15  July  1916.  He  was  last  seen  assist-

LISTER,  ARTHUR   HUGH:    Lieutenant- 
Colonel,    R.A.M.C.    (T.)i     C.M.O.;    son   of

tant in  Materia  Medica ; 

held  a  large  general,  later  consulting,  practice  in 

Aberdeen. 

He  served   in  the  Univ.  Company  R.A.M.C. 

(V.,  later  T.F.),  ga/ctted    Brevet   Lieut. -Colonel, 

1910;    afterwards    Lieut. -Colonel,     ist    Scottish 


General  Hospital,  available  on  mobilization.  On 
the  outbreak  of  war,  though  hampered  by  indiffer- 
ent health,  he  at  once  offered  his  services,  and 
was  for  a  time  on  the  Western  Front  as  Physi- 
cian with  Sir  Henry  Norman's  Ambulance.  1  .ater 
he  was  sent  to  Egypt  in  command  of  the  I9th 
General  Hospital,  Alexandria,  where  his  excel- 
lent work  gained  him  the  C.M.G.  It  was  char- 
acteristic of  him  that  the  repeated  warnings  of 
his  colleagues  were  unheeded;  he  took  the  risk 
and  worked  on  with  unflagging  energy,  until  at 
last  he  was  forced  to  give  in,  and  died  at  sea  on 
his  way  home,  17  July  1916. 

Of  Aberdeen  graduates  who  "laid  their  good 
lives  down  "  Arthur  Lister  was  the  most  eminent. 
He  inherited  a  name  famous  in  British  science, 
but  himself  possessed  intellectual  endowment 
above  the  average,  and  deep  scientific  interest. 
Asa  physician  he  was  beloved  by  his  patients,  he 
had  insight,  reverence,  sympathy  and  uplift,  along 
with  great  personal  charm,  and  possessed  in  a 
marked  degree  "the  gift  of  healing".  One 
thinks  of  his  buoyant  vitality,  his  infectious  en- 
thusiasm, his  unforgettable  kindness,  his  wonder- 
ful chivalry.  To  Arthur  Lister  life  was  a  great 
opportunity,  and  "all  was  good  that  Time  could 
bring  ".  The  words  of  a  subaltern  recall  him 
vividly  :  "  He  worked  unceasingly,  patching  us 
up,  always  good  to  look  upon,  always  charming, 
yet  always  to  the  point.  'One  must  do  what 
one  can,'  he  said  ;  and  he  did  it.  That  is  why 
we,  who  owe  to  him  not  only  health,  but  life  it- 
self, will  cherish  ever  the  memory  of  that  '  verray 
parfit  gentil  knyght  '."

with  the  Machine  Gun  Section,  till  his  death 
in  action  at  High  Wood,  in  the  Somme  district, 
on  22  July  191 '). 

Whilst  at  the  t'niversity,  Fraser  was  ['resident 
of  the  Christian  Union,  and  it  would  be  difficult 
to   find  a   more   popular    President   or  one   who 
more  ably  tilled  this  difficult   post.      In  the 
College  no  student  was  more  loved  and  esteemed 
than     Fraser,   of  whose  future   career,   own 
his  sterling  character  and  mental  equipment,  the 
highest  expectations  were  cherished.

came  to  Aberdeen  with 
a  very  creditable  schol-

transferred  to  "  U  "  Company,  4th  Gordon  High-

tion for  bravery  in  the  field  on  16  June  1915. 
In  the  Loos  offensive  he  was  dangerously

fearless,"  while  his  officers  wrote,,"!  have 
always  known  him  to  be  an  absolutely  fearless 
man,  and  one  whom,  more  than  anybody  else, 
I  would  have  liked  with  me  in  a  tight  corner". 
"  He  had  a  magnificent  record  out  here,  and 
was  one  who  could  be  least  easily  spared."

ber    1882;     educated 
Aberdeen  Grammar 
School ;    trained  as  an 
engineer  with   Messrs. 
Walker      &      Duncan,

sion    1902-03    he    at- 
tended   classes   in  the 
Agricultural      Depart-

head  and  Leeds  he  returned  to  Aberdeen,  and 
in  1909  attended  University  Classes  in  Geology. 
He  became  A.M.  Inst.  C.E.  in  1910,  and  in  the

those  few  he  was 
greatly  esteemed. 
After  one  session  at 
the  University  he  was

information  about  the  enemy  trenches  and  was 
reported  missing  on  23  July  1916,  and  later  pre- 
sumed killed.  His  CO.  wrote  of  him:  "He

Sir  Harry  V.  Brooke 
of  Fairley  ;  born  Lick- 
leyhead,  Aberdeen- 
shire,  9  December 
1889 ;  educated  Clifton 
College  ;  student  in 
Science,  1906-07.  He 
came  of  a  distinguished 
fighting  family  and  all 
his  three  brothers  were 
in  the  service.  One 
gained  the  V.C ,  two 
lost  their  lives,  and  the 
third  was  badly 

wounded  in  the  great  war.  As  Brooke  was  pre- 
vented by  his  eyesight  from  becoming  a  soldier 
he  trained  himself  for  colonial  life,  and  this  led 
him  to  take  classes  in  the  Agricultural  depart- 
ment for  a  session.  He  also  prepared  himself 
by  the  severest  physical  exercises  for  the  life  he 
had  in  view.  At  the  age  of  eighteen  he  pro- 
ceeded to  East  Africa  as  a  pioneer  farmer, 
and  afterwards  tried  planting  in  Ceylon  for  a 
time.  Finding  that  life  too  tame  he  returned  to 
Uganda  where  he  led  the  life  of  a  pioneer  and 
frontiersman,  and  at  the  outbreak  of  war  was 
acting  as  a  transport  officer  on  the  Jubaland 
frontier. 

Brooke  at  once  enlisted  as  a  Trooper  in  the 
British  East  African  Force,  and  soon  rose  to  the 
rank  of  Captain.  After  being  severely  wounded 
he  returned  to  Britain  and  was  transferred  as  a 
Captain  to  his  father's  old  regiment,  the  2nd 
Gordon  Highlanders.  Early  in  1916  he  went 


AV  MEM  OKI  AM. 


to  France,  and  led  his  Company  in  the  memor- 
able charge  at  Mametz  on  i  July,  where  he  was 
wounded  three  times  before  he  was  knocked 
out.  He  was  mentioned  in  dispatches  for  his 
gallantry  on  this  famous  occasion,  and  died  of 
his  wounds  in  London  on  24  July  1916.  Dur- 
ing Ins  varied  career  he  found  time  to  write,  and 
a  volume  of  his  poems  was  published  after  his 
death. 

Brian  Brooke  will  be  remembered  by  all  who 
knew  him  as  a  noble  and  adventurous  spirit,  one 
of  the  bravest  of  the  brave.

(where  he  was  attached  Bde.  H.Q.),  and  crossed 
with  the  4th  Battalion  to  France  in  February 
1915.  His  medical  knowledge  was  used  to 
advantage  in  his  appointment  in  May  1915  as 
medical  orderly  to  the  Battalion,  a  post  after  his 
own  heart,  and  in  this  position  he  attained  the 
rank  of  Sergeant.  Wholeheartedly  devoted  to 
his  duties,  he  gave  of  himself  unsparingly  and 
well,  and  won  the  appreciation  of  all  who  knew 
him.  On  25  July  1916,  he  died  of  wounds 
received  in  action  at  High  Wood. 

At  School  and  College  McCombie  was  de- 
servedly popular,  and  from  the  Front  his  Medical 
Officer  wrote  of  him  :  "  He  was  a  most  depend- 
able boy,  a  thorough  gentleman,  always  kind, 
always  calm,  always  brave — and  willing  ".

For  four  years  prior  to  the  war  he  served  in 
the  University  Company,  4th  Gordon  High-

his  commission  in  the  5th  Gordons  in  November 
1914,  and  proceeded  to  France  with  his  Batta- 
lion in  May  1915.  He  was  killed  at  Delville 
Wood,  on  the  Somme,  30  July  1916.  He  was 
a  man  of  great  mental  distinction,  original, 
resourceful  and  convincing,  with  an  alert  mind 
and  ready  speech.  In  military  service  he  was 
an  energetic  disciplinarian,  prompt  in  his  work, 
and  unalterable  in  his  decisions  and  practice 
where  right  and  duty  were  concerned.  In  dis- 
position he  was  supremely  generous,  considerate 
and  unselfish.  There  was  a  natural  charm  about 
him  that  made  him  wonderfully  attractive  and 
fascinating.  He  was  a  radiant  youth  who  loved 
laughter  and  sunshine,  and  clean  and  happy- 
things.  He  was  marked  for  high  position  in 
life.  He  meant  to  go  far. 
ing  spirit  and  strong  will, 
ing  an  enemy's  position, 
great  promise  and  hope, 
lines  loved  him  as  a  man  and  a  brother,  and  is 
one  of  many  who  will  ever  mourn  the  loss  of  a 
brilliant  friend,  and  keep  in  undying  remem- 
brance his  strength  and  daring,  his  reverence  for 
high  things,  his  gentleness  where  he  loved,  and 
his  unswerving  fidelity  in  all  the  graver  issues 
of  life.

to  France,  took  his  share  for  fifteen  months 
in  some  of  the  heaviest  fighting  of  the  war. 
He  was  wounded  in  July  1916  and  in  August  was 
promoted  Captain.  On  recovering  from  his 
wound,  he  returned  to  the  front,  and  four  weeks 
later  was  killed  by  a  shell,  5  September 
1916.  He  was  mentioned  in  dispatches  by 
Sir  Douglas  Haig  for  "  gallant  and  distinguished 
service  in  the  field,"  13  November  1916.  A' 
friend  wrote  of  him  :  "  Clever,  cheerful,  re- 
sourceful, he  is  at  the  same  time  as  true  and

JOHNSTON,  ALEXANDER  FRANCIS  : 
2nd  Lieutenant,  16th  Battalion  London

master  mariner  ;  born 
at  sea,  24  April  1886; 
educated  Grammar 
School,  Aberdeen; 
graduated  M.A.,  1907. 
Johnston  intended  en- 
tering the  Ministry,  but 
had  to  postpone  further 
study  for  reasons  of 
health.  He  travelled 
on  the  Continent  and 
then  taught  at  Hipper- 
holme,  Yorkshire,  and  at  Alnwick.  In  1912  he 
entered  Westminster  College,  Cambridge,  to 


study  for  the  Ministry  ;  here  he  had  a  very  dis- 
tinguished career,  passing  out  with  Honours  and 
taking  the  first  place  in  the  College  in  1915. 
He  took  his  B.A.  and  B.I).,  at  London  Univer-

for  France  with  the  Oueen's  Westminster  Rifles. 
His  service  abroad  was  short — he  fell  in 
action  on  the  Somme  on  10  September  1916. 

Though  his  career  in  the  Church  was  thus 
cut  short,  Johnston  had  already  shown  his 
ability.  A  writer  in  "  The  Presbyterian  Mes- 
senger "  says  of  him  :  "  As  a  preacher  his  pro- 
mise was  great.  He  was  everywhere  recognized 
as  a  man  of  character  and  gifts."

the  O.T.C.,  and  when 
an  appeal  was  issued 
for  Surgeon  Proba-

at  once  volunteered, 

was  commissioned  March  1916,  and  appointed 
to  H.M.S.  "Genista,"  a  mine-sweeping  vessel. 
There  were  few  dull  moments  in  Strachan's 
brief  service  career — on  his  way  to  join  his  ship 
he  reached  Dublin  in  the  midst  of  the  rebellion, 
and  took  charge  of  a  hospital  there ;  later  the 
"  Genista "  saved  the  lives  of  the  officers  and 
crew  of  a  ship  which  was  found  in  a  sinking 
condition,  and  Strachan  received  a  special  letter 
of  thanks  along  with  a  presentation  for  his  good 
services  on  the  occasion.  On  23  October  1916 
he  went  down  with  his  ship  in  the  Atlantic,  the 
"  Genista "  being  torpedoed  by  an  enemy  sub- 
marine and  sunk  on  that  date.

France,  and  alter  participating   in   the  whole  of 

•somme    I'.attle,   during   which     he    rendered 

valuable  service   in   his  own   efficient  way, 

he  was  killed  in  action   near   Beaumont-Hamel 

on   1  ^  November  1916. 

Major  Gillies  was  a  man  of  singular  personal 
charm,  frank,  fair  and  fearless,  whose  sound 
judgment,  knowledge  of  humanity  and  profes- 
]  attainments  gave  promise  of  a  most  useful 
and  successful  career.  Apart  from  business  he 
was  an  enthusiastic  golfer  and  mountaineer,  and 
as  Secret. irv  of  the  University  Club  and  of  the 
<'airngonii  (lub  was  held  in  the  highest  esteem 
by  a  wide  circle  of  friends,  to  whom,  as  well  as 
to  his  profession,  his  untimely  end  was  a  tragic 
loss.

was  c-alled  up  in  August 
1914,  and  after  a 
period  of  training  went 
overseas  with  the  5th 
Seaforths.  Being  a. 
keen  and  energetic  soldier  he  quickly  attained 
the  rank  of  Platoon  Sergeant,  and,  although 
twice  offered  a  commission  on  the  field,  he 
refused  it.  He  fell  at  the  fatal  advance  on 
Beaumont-Hamel  in  the  dawn  of  13  November 
1916.  His  loss  was  keenly  felt  by  his  platoon, 
all  of  whom  had  become  greatly  attached  to  him. 
A  comrade  in  arms  wrote:  "He  always  proved 
himself  a  soldier  and  a  man  and  feared  no 
danger,  ever  bright  and  cheerful,  with  a  kindly 
word  for  everybody  ".

Beaumont-Hamel,  he  was  killed  in  action,  13 
November  1916.  Several  months  before  his 
death  he  had  been  promoted  Captain,  an 
advancement  well  merited  by  his  record  of 
keen  and  conscientious  service.

representing  his  year  in  the  S.R.C.  and  giving 
valuable  help  in  the  Societies  and  at  social

Mains, 
born 


Smith,  East 
Knockando 
Knockando,  Moray- 
shire,  ii  October 
1889  ;  he  received  his 
early  education  at  the 
local  Public  School  and 
afterwards  came  to  the 
University  where  he 
studied  Agriculture, 
1910-14.  He  ob tamed 
the  University  Diploma 
in  Agriculture  in  1913 
and  the  National  Diploma  in  Dairying,  and  in 
1914  took  the  National  Diploma  in  Agriculture, 
with  distinction. 

He  was  appointed  to  a  post  in  the  Inland 
Revenue  Lands  Valuation  Department,  but  had 
only  been  there  three  months  when,  as  a  member 
of  "  U  "  Company,  4th  Gordons,  he  was  called  to 
the  colours.  After  a  period  of  training  he  crossed 
to  France  in  February  1915,  and  in  May  was 
severely  wounded  and  sent  home.  .Smith  was 
recommended  for  a  commission  and  gazetted  to 
the  6th  Seaforths  in  August  1915.  On  i  Septem- 
ber 1916  he  returned  to  France  and  in  autumn  of 
that  year  he  was  killed  by  a  shell  when  leading

burgh,  27  November  1881  ;  educated  Fraser- 
burgh  Academy,  Aberdeen  Grammar  School ; 
M.A.,  1903;  joined  his  father  as  a  partner  in 
the  firm  of  G.  Stephen  &  Co.,  merchants  and 
herring  exporters,  Fraserburgh. 


In  October  1914  he  was  reinstated  as  Cap- 
tain in  the  Gordon  Highlanders,  in  which  regiment 
he  had  previously  held 
a  Territorial  commis- 
sion. After  training  in 
England,  he  received 
the  offer  of  a  post  as 
musketry  instructor, 
which  would  have  kept 
him  at  home.  He 
chose,  however,  to  go 
to  the  Front  and  his 
Battalion  was  early  in 
action.  After  only  a 
few  days  in  France,  a 
sudden  German  attack 

upon  our  trenches  resulted  in  hand-to-hand 
fighting  in  which  Captain  Stephen's  company 
was  engaged.  At  the  Battle  of  the  Ancre, 
near  Beaumont-Hamel,  on  13  November  1916, 
as  Stephen  was  leading  his  company  in  a 
daring  attack  upon  the  German  trenches,  he 
was  struck  by  a  hand  grenade  and  killed 
instantaneously.  He  was  a  man  known  to  his 
friends  as  "most  kindly-dispositioned,  loving- 
hearted,  and  unselfish,"  constantly  thinking  of 
the  comfort  and  happiness  of  his  men,  admired 
and  trusted  by  them  as  a  friend  and  leader  in 
more  than  warfare.  In  him  his  own  town  of 
F'raserburgh  lost  a  son  of  whom  it  was  proud, 
one  to  whom  all  local  matters  were  of  interest  and 
in  whom  every  good  cause  found  a  ready  helper.

Prior  to  enlisting  he 
was  an  English  Master

Henry  liegg  was  not  a  man  who  laid  himself 
out  to  gain  popularity  :  but  no  one  was  more 
deservedly  popular  owing  to  sterling  merit,  h'gh 
courage  and  cheerfulness  of  disposition  in 
difficulties.  He  never  lost  either  heart  or  head; 
he  believed  that  .difficulties  existed  for  the 
purpose  of  being  overcome  ;  and  in  consequence 
he  gained  the  affection  and  trust  of  his  men  to  a 
high  degree.  IK-  was  an  ideal  stretcher-bearer 
officer;  for  those  under  him  knew  he  would 
never  send  them  where  he  was  not  prepared  to 
take  them.  The  sense  of  loss  felt  by  his  unit  on 
his  death  was  great  ;  his  brother  officers  wrote  : 
"  \\  e  remember  his  bright  and  cheerful  dis- 
position at  all  times  and  under  any  circum-

1st  Battalion  in  the  following  December.  After 
training  in  Aberdeen  and  Bridge  of  Allan  he  went 
to  France  in  September  1916,  but  his  term  of

at  Beaumont-Hamel  on  13  November,  and  died 
14  November  1916  of  the  wounds  he  had  received 
in  action  the  previous  day.  Lyall 's  was  a  very-

couragement and  comfort  "  which  the  soldiers 
received  from  Macleod's  devoted  ministrations, 
and  a  fellow-worker,  a  Canon  of  the  Church  of 
England,  testified  to  the  "  mingled  strength  and 
tenderness  of  his  character  ".

Taylor's  brief  military  career  cut  short  a  life 
of  great  promise  ;  he  possessed  a  disciplined 
mind,  a  virile  intellect,  a  forceful  personality 


and  great  enthusiasm  for  the  matter  in  hand 
whatever  it  might  be.  His  special  bent  was 
towards  English  literature  and  language.  He 
had  intended  to  take  Honours  in  Art>,  and 
as  he  had  fulfilled  all  the  requirements  for  the 
ordinary  degree  of  M.A.  this  was  conferred 
upon  him  by  the  Senatus  after  his  death. 
Taylor  was  only  21,  he  will  be  remeii'i

and  died  at  Krcvent,  3  January  1917,  from 
wounds  received  in  action.  "  Scrupulous  fidel- 
ity "  had  characterized  him  as  a  lad  and  as 
the  years  went  on  that  same  fidelity  to  his 
ideals  made  him  give  up  his  profession  and 
cross  the  seas  to  fight  for  King  and  Country.

At  the  outbreak  of  war  Professor  Burgess 
was  appointed  Officer  in  Charge  of  the  Medical

for  his  strength,  and  he  died  in  Sheffield  on 
17  January  1917. 

GALLOWAY,  JOHN  :  Corporal,  40th  Bat-

Aberdeen,  22 
1887  ;  educated 
ley  Road  Public  School 
and  Robert  Gordon's 
College,  Aberdeen ; 
Bronze  Medallist, 
G  o  r  d  o  n 's  College, 
1901 ;  graduated  M.  A., 
1909.  For  five  and  a 
half  years  he  taught  as 
an  assistant  master  in 
Pcterhead  Academy,  then  at  the  Middle  School, 
Aberdeen,  and  later  at  Bishopbriggs  and  Chry- 
ston  Schools,  Glasgow. 

During  his  University  days  Home  was  an  en- 
thusiastic member  of  the  Gordons.  In  July  1916 
he  rejoined  his  old  regiment,  and  in  October  of 
that  year  went  to  France.  Towards  the  end  of 
December  he  was  wounded  and  sent  to  Eng- 
land, where  he  died  in  Duston  Military  Hospital 
on  22  January  1917. 

There  are  few  men  whose  place  in  their  pro- 
fession would  be  more  difficult  to  fill.  To 
Home  teaching  was  something  more  than  a 


profession,  education  was  a  high  ideal  and  the 
study  of  child  nature  a  worthy  life's  work. 
From  his  schooldays  onwards  he  was  thorough, 
painstaking  and  methodical  to  a  most  unusual 
degree,  whilst  his  cheery  wit  and  his  unfailing 
good  nature  and  kindliness  endeared  him  to  a 
large  circle. 

MILNE,  JOSEPH  ELLIS:  Captain,

graduated  M.A.,  1888; 
M.B.  (Hon.  Dist.), 
1891  ;  M.I).  (Com.), 
i  894. 

When  war  broke  out 
Ellis  Milne  was  in  a 
large  practice  in  Aber- 
deen. Commissioned 
Lieutenant,  25  April 
1915,  he  left  next  day 

for  France  with  the  Highland  Casualty  Clear- 
ing Station.  On  i  November  1915  he  became 
Medical  Officer  to  the  i/8th  Battalion  (Irish)  of 
the  King's  Liverpool  Regiment.  In  Octo- 
ber 1916  he  was  awarded  the  Distinguished 
Service  Order  for  his  work  in  the  Battle  of  the 
Somme — "For  conspicuous  gallantry  and  de- 
votion to  duty  during  operations.  He  has 
repeatedly  tended  the  wounded  under  heavy 
shell  fire,  and  has  shown  himself  utterly  regard- 
less of  personal  safety."  In  Sir  Douglas  Haig's 
New  Year's  Dispatch  1917  he  was  mentioned 
for  work  done  after  receiving  the  D.S.O.  He 
was  killed  in  action  near  Ypres  on  22  February 
1917. 

Joseph  Ellis  Milne  had  a  dynamic  personality. 
An  iron  will  endowed  him  with  great  powers  of 
physical  and  mental  endurance.  A  high  con- 
ception of  duty  was  united  to  a  complete  in- 
difference to  personal  danger,  a  heart  in 
sympathy  with  each  Irish  lad  brought  him  the 
love  of  all  in  the  Battalion.  He  met  his  death 
by  rifle  bullet  in  the  trenches.  Such  a  daunt- 
less spirit,  no  matter  his  tale  of  years,  could 
not  have  worked  happily  outside  the  Great 
War.

MAC  DONALD,  HECTOR  ROBERT: 
Lieutenant,  3rd  Battalion  Seaforth  High- 
landers (Ross-shire 
Buffs,  the  Duke 
of  Albany's);  son 
of  Kwen  Macdonald ; 
horn  Aberdeen,  21 
July  1894.  He  was 
educated  at  the  Aber- 
deen Grammar  School, 
and  passed  on  to  Kind's 
College  in  1912. 
Then.1  he  specialized 
in  History,  reading 
for  Honours,  with  a 
view  In  studying  at 

Cambridge  later.  Among  the  men  of  his  year 
he  was  known  as  a  keen  athlete,  excelling  es- 
pecially in  running,  boxing  and  hockey ;  while 
his  wide  interests  and  knowledge  of  very  varied 
subjects  made  him  many  friends. 

Commissioned  to  the  Territorial  A.S.C.  in 
1913,  he  was  mobilized  with  the  Highland 
Division,  and  served  from  the  outbreak  of  war. 
In  April  1.915  he  entered  Sandhurst,  and  in 
August  of  the  same  year  was  gazetted  to  the 
Se.iforth  Highlanders.  After  nine  months' 
home  service  he  was  sent  to  Mesopotamia, 
where  he  became  bombing  officer  to  his  Battalion. 
He  was  killed  at  Sanna-i-yat  on  22  Febru- 
ary 1917,  during  a  bombing  attack  organized 
and  carried  out  by  him.  In  a  letter  from  his 
Colonel  the  highest  testimony  is  given  to  his 
efficiency,  bravery  and  thoroughness.  It  was 
the  success  of  that  attack,  to  which  he  had  so 
greatly  contributed,  that  made  possible  the  tak- 
ing of  Kut-el-Amara,  and  the  further  advance 
up  the  river.  In  him  the  Battalion  lost  a  gallant 
and  skilful  officer,  and  his  comrades  a  charming 
companion. 

REID,  WILLIAM  GEORGE:  2nd  Lieuten-

Scholar,  Oriel  College, 
Oxford,  1915  -  i  6  ; 
second  assistant  in 
Greek,  Aberdeen  Uni- 
versity, 1915-16.  Reid 
excelled  in  all  branches 
of  study,  but  his  true- 
bent  was  towards  Eng- 
lish and  Classics.  His 
outstanding  ability 
showed  itself  not  only 

in  his  record  at  Aberdeen  and  at  Oxford,  but 
in  his  contributions  to  "  Alma  Mater "  which, 
whether  in  poetry  or  in  prose,  were  noticeable 
for  excellence  of  style  and  beauty  of  thought. 
And  yet  he  was  only  at  the  beginning — what  he 
had  done  "was  still  but  earnest  of  the  things 
that  he  would  do  ". 

The  war  came,  turning  students  into  soldiers, 
and  Reid  threw  himself  with  the  keenest  en- 
thusiasm into  the  activities  of  the  Oxford  O.T.C. 
Though  still  handicapped  by  the  effects  of  an 
illness  in  his  student  days,  he  succeeded  in  1916 
in  getting  a  commission  in  the  3rd  Scottish 
Rifles,  and  towards  the  end  of  that  year  went  to 
France,  where  he  fell  in  action  on  22  March 
1917.

'i\e  with  and  the  man  with  whom  to

and  was  proof  against  all  the  untoward  incidents 
of  his  military  career.

returned  to  Aberdeen 
t'niversity  and  com- 
pleted a  winter  session 
in  Honours  Classics 
course,  as  he  found 
Classics  would  lead  to 
a  better  future  for  him 
in  Canada. 

Anderson  enlisted  in 
the  4th  Gordons,  16 
April  1915,  and  was 
commissioned  2nd 
Lieutenant,  5th  Gor- 
don Highlanders,  n  September  1915,  with 
which  Battalion  he  saw  much  service  and  dis- 
tinguished himself.  He  received  the  Military 
Cross,  13  November  1916,  for  great  bravery  in 
leading  his  men  after  all  the  other  officers  were 
either  killed  or  wounded,  and  in  capturing  1 70 
Germans.  He  was  killed  in  action  at  Arras,  7 
April  1917.  His  loss  was  a  very  severe  one  to 
his  Battalion,  for  he  had  the  soldiering  instincts 
in  a  marked  degree  and  was  certain  of  promo- 
tion.

shown  himself  endowed  with  intellectual  gifts.

1914  to    19  February 

1915.  and   in    France 
and   Flanders  in  those 
grim  days  of  1915  and 

1916.  He  was  twice 
wounded,  first  in  April 

1915  at  Hill  60  whilst 
bringing  in  a  wounded

for  he  was  killed  in  action  at  Arras,  9  April  1917. 

"Joe  "  Reid,  as  we  always  called  him,  was  an 
exceptionally  fine  soldier  and  a  very  brave  man, 
endowed  with  the  quiet  courage  and  determina- 
tion that  invariably  accompany  the  finer  spirit, 
whilst  only  those  who  called  him  friend  could 
rightl}-  appraise  that  friendship.

don; graduated  M.A. 
(Aberd.),  1904  ;  M.B., 
1909,  and  M.D.  (Com- 
mend.), 1911.  When 
a  student  he  became 
Editor  of  "Alma 
Mater".  He  was  a 
great  reader,  had  a 
most  retentive  memory, 
and  developed  literary  ' 
talent  of  no  mean  order.  His  thesis  for  M.D. 
degree  was  a  somewhat  unusual  one— "An  In- 
vestigation into  the  Causes  of  Death  of  the  Kings 
of  England  from  William  I  to  William  IV,"  and 
was  the  result  of  his  researches  in  the  by-paths 
of  literature.  He  also  contributed  many  articles 
to  the  "Lancet,"  the  "British  Medical  Journal,"

and  other  medical  publications.  He  held  various 
posts  as  Medical  Officer  in  London,  Cheltenham 
and  Birmingham.  »  •  •••*t  — -1  —  •• 

In  1915  Rae  took  a  temporary  commission 
as  Lieutenant  in  the  R.A.M.C.,  and  he  was 
appointed  Registrar  to  the  Connaught  Hospital, 
Aldershot.  Later  lie  was  ordered  to  Egypt  on 
military  service,  and  it  was  while  he  was  on  the 
voyage  thither  that  his  career  was  brought  to  a 
premature  close  by  the  torpedoing  of  the  troop- 
ship "  Arcadian  "  in  the  Eastern  Mediterranean 
on  15  April  1917. 


RIDDEL,  JOHN  DEAN  :  2nd  Lieutenant, 
5th  Battalion  Gordon  Highlanders  ;  son 

of  G  e  o  r  g  e  Riddel, 
farmer,  Kininmonth, 
Longside  ;  born  New 
Deer,  8  September 
1893  ;  educated  Kinin- 
month Public  School 
and  Peterhead  Aca- 
demy, g  a  i  n  i  n  g  the 
Medal  for  Classics.  He 
entered  the  University 
in  1914,  with  a  view  to 
qualifying  for  work  as 
a  Medical  Missionary 
in  China. 

As  a  student  Riddel  was  in  the  O.T.C.  He 
enlisted  in  the  5th  Gordons  in  1915  ;  after  a 
year's  service  first  as  Private  and  then  as  Corporal 
and  Musketry  Instructor,  he  was  gazetted  to  the 
4th  Reserve  Battalion  and  posted  to  the  5th  Bat- 
talion Ciordon  Highlanders.  In  January  1917  he 
left  for  France,  where  he  served  till  his  death  on 
17  April  1917  from  wounds  received  in  action 
near  Arras  ten  days  previously.  Of  a  quiet, 
kindly  disposition,  he  endeared  himself  to  his 
friends,  who  hold  his  memory  in  affectionate 
regard.  Young  as  he  was,  he  had  already 
mapped  out  for  himself  a  definite  career  of  self- 
sacrifice  and  Christian  endeavour,  but  he  willingly 
gave  up  all,  to  follow  what  he  so  clearly  saw  to 
be  the  path  of  duty. 

PIRIE,  WILLIAM  SHEWAN  :  Captain, 
5th  Battalion  Royal  Scots  Fusiliers;

Arts,  Aberdeen,  1905-07  ;  U.F.C.  Training  Col- 
lege ;  taught  at  Muirkirk,  Ayrshire. 

Pirie  joined  the 
Gordon  Highlanders 
about  ten  years  before 
the  war  and  was  later 
transferred  to  the 
Royal  Scots  Fusiliers. 
In  his  Territorial  days 
he  was  a  keen  shot  and 
competed  at  B  i  s  1  e  y 
and  D  a  r  n  1  e  y  on 
several  occasions.  He 
was  mobilized  as 
Colour-Sergeant  at  the 
outbreak  of  war  and 
was  stationed  at  Stirling  until  May  1915,  when 
the  Battalion  was  sent  to  Gallipoli.  For  his  dis- 
tinguished services  he  was  awarded  the  D.C.M. 
in  July  1915,  and  promoted  Lieutenant  in  the 
Field.  He  was  also  mentioned  in  Sir  Ian  Hamil- 
ton's Gallipoli  dispatch.  After  the  evacuation 
of  Gallipoli,  Pirie  went  to  Egypt  and  Pales- 
tine where  again  his  valuable  services  were  re- 
cognized by  two  mentions  in  dispatches.  He 
rose  to  the  rank  of  Captain  and  was  killed  in 
action  at  the  Battle  of  Gaza  on  19  April 
1917.

BRICE.  ANDREW  MITCHELL:  Private. 
Mli    Huttal ion    Gordon    Highlanders  ; 

son  of  Alexander  II  nice, 
Mill  of  Allathan,  Mon- 
quhitter ;  bom  New 
Deer,  30  March  1877  ; 
educated  New  i 
Central  School.  He 
entered  on  his  profes- 
sional career  as  a  pupil 
teacher  at  Knaven 
Public  School  early  in 
1 893,  and  two  years  later 
was  transferred  to  New 
1  leer  Public  School. 
At  the  end  of  his  train- 
ins,'  as  a  pupil  teacher  he  entered  the  Church  of 
Scotland  Training  College  with  a  Bursary  and 
continued  his  studies  until  he  graduated  M.A. 
in  1908.  He  was  first  appointed  to  the  Inver- 
ness Academy  and  later  to  the  Central  School, 
Inverness. 

Although  Bruce  was  almost  beyond  military 
age  and  suffered  always  from  the  effects  of  an 
illness  which  had  delayed  his  studies,  he  en- 
listed under  the  Derby  Scheme  and  went  into 
training  at  Ripon  with  the  3/51(1  Gordons  in 
April  1916.  He  was  transferred  to  the  Signal 
Section,  proceeded  to  France  in  March  1917, 
and  was  reported  "missing"  on  23  April  1917. 
A  comrade  reported  that  he  had  fallen  in  action 
at  Roeux  on  that  date  and  this  was  confirmed 
later. 

Both  as  teacher  and  as  friend  Bruce  was 
valued  by  all  who  came  in  contact  with  him. 
His  keen  interest  in  educational  matters,  his 
sincerity  and  conscientious  thoroughness  had 
much  influence  on  his  pupils.  A  brass  tablet 
in  the  Hall  of  the  School,  and  the  "  Bruce 
Medal "  founded  in  his  memory,  testify  to  the 
in  in  which  he  was  held.

Lieutenant.  (>th    Battalion  Black   Watcli  ; 

son  of  Sergeant  John 
Maclieth,  late  Bombay 
I  .ight  Infantry  ;  born 
1  lornoch,  9  October 
I  884  ;  educated  Dor- 
noch  Academy  ;  grad- 
uated M.A.,  1909 ; 
taught  in  Blackness 
Public  School,  had 
travelled  in  France, 
Belgium,  Holland, 
( JiTmany  and  Switzer- 
land, in  itself  a  liberal 
education  readily  as- 
similated by  his  Celtic  nature  ;  when  war  broke 
out  he  was  English  Master  at  the  High  School, 
Dundee. 

Soldiering  instincts  were  strong  in  him,  and  as 
a  lad  MacBeth  had  joined  the  ist  S.H.R.V., 
now  5th  Seaforth  Highlanders  (T.F.),  but  resigned 
some  years  before  the  war.  He  was  com- 
missioned 3  March  1915,  being  posted  to  the 
Royal  Highlanders  (The  Black  Watch),  and  had 
served  for  some  time  on  the  Western  Front  when 
he  fell  in  action  during  the  Battle  of  Arras,  23 
April  1917.  He  was  described  as  a  "  resource- 
ful and  capable  officer,"  of  whom  his  Colonel 
wrote  :  "  He  was  killed  when  gallantly  leading 
his  men  in  the  advance  upon  the  Gavarelle  Road, 
just  north  of  the  chemical  works,  on  23  April; 
he  fell  bravely  leading  his  men  after  the  capture 
of  the  German  first  line  during  the  advance  to 
the  second  line.  He  was  a  splendid  and  most 
valuable  officer,  and  one  the  army  can  ill 
afford  to  lose." 

ROSS,  REV.  SIMON  ERASER  :  Lieu- 
tenant, 4th  Battalion  Gordon  High-

already  given  promise  that  he  would  prove  a 
preacher  of  no  mean  order. 

Ross    enlisted  in  November    1914,  retaining

the  rank  of  Sergeant  which   he  had  held  in  the 
Territorial   Force.      In  April    1915   he  was  com- 
missioned as  2nd  Lieu- 
tenant, and   was    made 
full    Lieutenant  on  the 
field  on   2T,    July  1916, 
when    he   had    specially 
distinguished  himself  in 
one    of    the     So  m  m  e 
battles    and     been     se- 
verely   wounded.       He 
was     killed     in    action 
near  Arras   on  23  April 
191  7.      Before  going  to 
the  Front  and  also  dur- 
ing his   period  of  con- 
valescence   Ross    rendered    valuable   service   in 
training    recruits.       Alike    as    a    soldier    and    a 
student   he    was  energetic  and  enthusiastic,  and 
was  held  in  the  highest  esteem  by  all  who  knew 
him. 

SUTHERLAND,  ALEXANDER  GEORGE  : 

Private,  4th  Battalion  Gordon  High- 
landers ;  son  of 
(ieorge  Sutherland, 
boot  merchant ;  born 
Buckie,  9  January 
1 886  ;  educated  Buckie 
Public  School ;  passed 
to  Aberdeen  Univer- 
sity in  190338  loth  Bur- 
sar; graduated  M.A. 
(l-'irst  Class  Highest 
Distinction,  Greek 
History),  1907  ;  Simp- 
son  Greek  Prize,  Sea- 
field  Latin  Prize, 

Liddel  Prize,  Ferguson  and  Fullerton  Scholar- 
ships ;  entered  Trinity  College,  Cambridge,  as 
Classical  Sizar — becoming  later  ( ,'lassiral  Scholar ; 
First  Class,  Part  I,  Classical  Tripos  ;  Distinction 
in  Ancient  History,  Part  II.  "  Few  men  so 
able,"  wrote  the  Professor  of  Greek  in  Aberdeen, 
"have  ever  attended  the  University."  He 
accepted  the  post  of  Examiner  in  the  Ex- 
chequer Audit  at  Warri,  East  Africa,  a  post 
ludicrously  disproportionate  to  his  abilities. 

Although  in  bad  health  when  war  broke  out, 
Sutherland     enlisted    at     the     earliest     possible 


moment  and  sailed  for  home  in  February  1915. 
After  training  he  went  to  the  F'ront  with  the 
2/4th  Gordon  Highlanders.  When  ordered  home 
on  sick  leave  for  the  second  time  in  1917,  he 
begged  permission  to  *tay  for  the  big  push.  It 
was  in  it  that  he  met  his  death,  being  reported 
missing  after  the  attack  on  23  April  1917. 

An  utter  absence  of  self-seeking  characterized 
Sutherland — a  modesty  and  humility  which  made 
him  amazingly  blind  to  his  own  brilliant  powers. 
Of  a  fine  and  subtle  intellect,  with  literary 
taste  and  knowledge  far  beyond  the  common,  he 
could  never  see  himself  in  the  light  by  which 
others  saw  him  ;  and  gave  his  life  to  his  country 
with  the  same  willingness  of  sacrifice  that  had 
marked  all  his  actions. 

URQUHART.  JOHN  S,:  Captain,  14th  Bat- 
talion Argyll  and  Sutherland  Highland- 
ers ;  son  of  Duncan 
Urquhart,  farmer  ;  born 
Drumnadrochit,  Inver- 
ness-shire, 23  January 
1885  ;  educated  at  the 
local  school ;  matricu- 
lated at  Aberdeen  Uni- 
versity 1903  ;  graduated 
M.A.,  1906.  He  also 
attended  the  United 
Free  Church  Training 
College  concurrently 
with  the  University,  and 
acted  for  one  year  as 

Editor  of  the  College  magazine.  After  graduat- 
ing he  taught  in  Edinburgh  for  a  short  time  ;  he 
then  received  a  post  in  Wick  Academy  where  he 
remained  for  three  years,  and  thereafter  spent 
five  very  useful  years  as  English  Master  in 
Gordon  Schools,  Huntly.  In  August  1914  he 
was  appointed  to  a  similar  post  in  Ardrossan 
Academy. 

Urquhart  joined  up  before  the  end  of 
1914,  receiving  a  commission  in  the  Argyll  and 
Sutherland  Highlanders.  He  proceeded  to 
France  in  June  1916  and  was  soon  recognized 
as  an  efficient  officer.  Coming  successfully 
through  the  great  attack  at  Bapaume  he  was 
killed  by  a  stray  bullet  the  following  morning, 
24  April  1917,  while  talking  to  a  brother  officer. 
He  was  an  inspiring  teacher  and  a  great  favourite

this  very  fine  Highlander. 

PROFEIT,  LEOPOLD:  Captain.  8th  Bat- 
talion Shropshire  Light  Infantry  ;  ion  of 

Dr.  Alexander  Profeit, 
C  o  m  ni  i  s  s  i  o  n  e  r  to 
Huecn  Victoria  at  Hal- 
moral  ;  born  Crathie, 
7  April  1877  ;  edu- 
•  i  privately  ;  grad- 
uated  M.  A.,  1896. 
After  graduation  he 
went  on  the  stage, 
playing  with  Sir  John- 
ston Forbes-Robertson 
and  the  late  James 
Welch. 

At   the  outbreak    of 

war  I'rofeit  was  home  on  holiday  from  America, 
where  he  had  been  for  some  years,  and  he  at 
onc-e  joined  the  University  and  Public  Schools 
Corps.  In  December  1914  he  was  commissioned 
in  the  Shropshire  Light  Infantry  and  about  a 
year  Liter  was  sent  to  France.  Afterwards  he 
was  transferred  to  the  Salonika  Front,  where  In- 
full  near  Lake  Doiran  on  25  April  1917.  The 
attack  in  which  he  met  his  death  had  been 
planned  by  himself  and,  though  fatal  to  its 
leader,  was  successful  in  attaining  its  objective. 

EWEN,  EDGAR  HUNTER:  Lieutenant 
(Acting  Captain),  5th  Battalion  Royal 
Scots  Fusiliers;  son 

of  George  Ewen,  Tang- 
Ian;  born  Methlick,  27 
December  1880  ;  edu- 
cated at  Methlick  Pub- 
lic School,  Gordon's 
College  and  Aberdeen 
University  ;  graduated 
M.A.  in  1904  ;  taught 
in  Invergordon  Aca- 
demy and  was  Science 
Master  in  T  r  o  o  n 
Academy  when  war 
broke  out. 
He  was  a  member  of  the  University  Company 


as  an  undergraduate  and  re-enlisted  in  the 
Gordons  in  1915.  Ewen,  like  the  rest  of  his 
family,  was  an  expert  shot  and  was  sent  to  a 
musketry  school  to  qualify  as  an  instructor. 
After  gaining  hk  certificate  he  was  transferred  to 
the  5th  (Res.)  Royal  Scots  Fusiliers  with  coin- 
missioned  rank  and  was  appointed  Battalion 
Instructor  of  Musketry.  After  the  5th  Reserve 
was  amalgamated  with  the  4th  Reserve  R.S.I''., 
Ewen  assumed  command  of  one  of  the  train- 
ing companies.  He  was  accidentally  killed  in 
Catterick  Camp  on  i  May  1917. 

How  highly  Lieutenant  E  wen's  services  were 
esteemed  may  be  gathered  from  the  following 
letter  from  his  Commanding  Officer:  "I  well 
remember  when  he  came  to  me  at  Ayr  Race 
Course.  He  had  been  highly  spoken  of  by  his 
former  Commanding  Officer  and  I  was  much  in 
need  of  effective  help.  I  at  once  saw  that  I  had 
got  it,  and  during  the  all  too  short  time  we  were 
together  my  regard  for  him  steadily  increased. 
I  could  not  have  had  a  more  faithful  officer,  or 
one  who  was  more  concerned  to  do  his  very 
best  for  the  regiment." 

ME  R  SON,  REV.  MARSHALL:  Lieu- 
tenant, 5th  Battalion  Royal  Scots  Fusiliers ; 

son  of  George  Merson, 
fishcurer;  bornEuckie, 
3  August  1889  ;  edu- 
cated there  and  at 
Aberdeen  University, 
where  he  graduated 
M.A.  in  1912.  There- 
after he  took  a  highly 
creditable  place  in  the 
classes  of  the  Divinity 
Hall  of  the  University. 
During  his  Divinity 
course  he  gave  much 
valued  assistance  to  the 
ministers  of  Buckie  and  of  Holburn  Church, 
Aberdeen  ;  and  his  summer  vacations  were 
occupied  with  work  as  student  missionary  in  the 
island  of  Swona. 

At  the  close  of  his  last  session  of  Divinity  in 
the  spring  of  1915,  he  enlisted  promptly  as  a 
Private  in  the  4th  Battalion  Gordon  Highlanders, 
and  in  the  following  August  received  a  com- 
mission as  Lieutenant  in  the  Royal  Scots.  Alike

on  garrison  duty  at  home  and  on  active  service- 
in  France,  Merson  showed  much  ability  and  de- 
votion and  received  from  his  C.O.  the  testimony 
that  he  had  "proved  himself  to  be  an  extra- 
ordinarily good  officer ".  He  was  killed  in 
action  in  France,  3  May  1917. 

TAYLOR,  JOHN  OGILVIE  :  Captain, 
4th  Battalion  East  Kent  Regiment  (The 
Buffs)  ;  son  of  John 
O.  Taylor,  shipmaster; 
born  Aberdeen,  29 
November  1884. 
Educated  at  the  Aber- 
deen Grammar  School 
and  Aberdeen  Uni- 
versity. He  graduated 
M.A.  in  1910,  and 
became  English  Master 
in  Basingstoke  Gram- 
mar School. 

IQI      In    April     1915    he 
joined     the     Inns    of 

Court  O.T.C.,  from  which  he  received  a  com- 
missior  in  The  Buffs.  In  October  1916  he 
went  to  the  Front  with  his  Battalion,  and  was 
attached  to  the  Middlesex  Regiment.  He  was 
killed  in  action  at  Monchy-le-Preux,  on  3  May 
1917.  Popular  with  his  fellow-officers  and 
beloved  by  his  men,  his  death  was  felt  as  an 
irreparable  loss.  He  was  a  man  of  fine  literary 
taste,  and  in  his  College  days  a  great  supporter 
of  a  dramatic  club  for  the  study  of  Shakespeare. 
The  breadth  of  his  interests  and  sympathies,  the 
wider  outlook  which  much  travel  in  France  and 
Germany  had  given  him,  made  his  friendship  a 
privilege  and  a  delight. 

THOMSON,      HENRY     WILKIESON  : 

Lance-Corporal,  46th  Saskatchewan 
(Canadian)  Regiment;  son  of  John  W. 
Thomson,  schoolmaster;  born  Turriff,  13  June 
1885.  Educated  at  Turriff;  graduated  M.A. 
with  Classical  Honours  in  1907.  He  was  a 
schoolmaster  at  Dufftown  and  Huntly  ;  but  be- 
fore long  left  this  country  for  Canada. 

In  October  1915  he  crossed  to  England  with 
the  Canadian  contingent,  and  soon  after  went 
to  France.  He  was  wounded  the  following 
year,  and  killed  in  action,  5  May  1917.  Some- 


one has  written  of  Thomson  as  "  the  Scholar 
Gipsy  of  our  Northern  University  ".  He  loved 
life  more  than  books, 
and  books  as  they 
illustrated  life.  A 
good  companion  and 
a  good  friend,  full  of 
gay  high  spirits  and 
quaint  humour,  a  con- 
stitutional heretic  and 
lover  of  freedom,  he 
could  not  cramp  his 
mind  in  the  fetters  of 
conventional  school 
teaching.  His  passion 
for  the  open  country  of 

adventure  drove  him  out  to  look  for  life  in  the 
woods  and  along  the  great  river-ways  of  Canada. 
There  he  mixed  with  men  of  all  sorts  and  still 
found  life  "a  changeful  and  a  cheerful  page  " ;  until 
at  the  outbreak  of  war  he  heard  the  summons  of 
the  greatest  adventure  of  all — an  adventure  which 
was  duty  and  discipline  as  well ;  and  to  which  he 
gave  his  life  with  that  gaiety  of  courage  which 
had  been  his  always. 

MASSON,  JAMES  ALEXANDER  :  2nd 
Lieutenant,  Royal  Garrison  Artillery  ; 

son  of  James  Masson, 

fisherman;      born     '  • 

Fraserburgh,  20  Octo- 
ber 1891  ;  educated 
Fraserburgh  Academy. 
He  came  to  Aberdeen 
with  a  splendid  record 
in  1909,  and  graduated 
M.A.  with  First  Class 
Honours  in  Classics, 
1913.  Shortly  after- 
wards he  was  appointed 
Classical  Master  at 
Thurso  Academy. 

Enlisting  in  April  1916  he  joined  the  R.G.A., 
serving  at  Edinburgh,  London,  Winchester. 
Before  going  to  France  he  received  his  com- 
mission. He  was  only  a  short  time  in  France 
when  he  was  fatally  wounded  near  Arras,  8- 
May  1917.

Constantly  during  the  years  at  tin-  'Varsity. 
But  Masson  was  not  of  that  type.  There  was 
a  shy  reserve  about  him  which  pa-vented  him 
from  .netting  widely  known,  but  those  who 
were  favoured  with  his  friendship  were  im- 
pressed by  his  quiet  strength  which  gave  a 
stion  of  unreali/ed  capabilities.  No  one 
d  say  that  he  was  a  "minus"  man,  but 
he  never  obtruded  himself  and  his  conscienti- 
ousness was  never  paraded.  On  looking  back 
to  those  years  that  were  so  rich  in  companion- 
ship, one  sees  how  much  of  Masson's  character 
was  due  to  his  simple  piety  ami  to  a  deep 
foundation  of  nobility. 

WEBSTER.    GI-OKCiK    PARK:     Private, 
1st      Battalion     Gordon     Highlanders; 

son  of  William  Web- 
ster, engineer ;  born 
Aberdeen,  22  January 
1898  ;  educated  Gor- 
don's College,  which 
he  left  in  June  1915, 
h  a  v  i  n  g  gained  the 
IDwn  Council  Gold 
Medal  as  Dux  on  the 
( 'lassical  side  ;  took 
5th  place  in  the  Bur- 
sary Competition,  win- 
ning a  Dingwall  Bur- 
sary ;  matriculated, 
October  1915,  and  spent  one  year  as  a  student 
in  Arts. 

Webster  enlisted  in  the  3rd  Battalion  Gordon 
Highlanders,  n  July  1916,  and  after  under- 
going a  period  of  training  in  Aberdeen  was 
sent  to  I1' ranee  in  March  1917,  attached  to  the 
ist  Battalion.  He  was  reported  missing  on 
1 1  May  and  was  later  officially  stated  to  have 
been  killed  on  that  date,  11  May  1917.  A 
young  lad  of  sterling  character  and  undoubted 
ability  he  gave  every  indication  of  a  future  of 
much  distinction. 

GILMOUR,     WILLIEJOHN     OBERLIN  : 

•2nd   Lieutenant,    Scottish   Horse; 

son  of  William  Gilmour,  B.A.,  headmaster  of 
Cockney  School ;  born  at  Armadale,  Sutherland, 
.50  May  1884  ;  received  his  earlier  education  at 
various  schools  under  his  father.  Eventually  as 


a  First  Bursar  for  the  County  of  Aberdeen,  he 
proceeded  to  Gordon's  College  and  then  to 
Aberdeen  University 
where  he  graduated 
M.A.  in  1911.  He 
was  Assistant  Master 
in  Paisley  Grammar 
School  for  a  time,  and 
then  obtained  an  ap- 
pointment in  Leith 
Academy  where  he  was 
employed  on  the  out- 
break of  war. 

He  enlisted  as  a 
trooper  in  the  Scottish 
Horse  on  7  August 
1914,  though  offered

His  old  connection  with 

the  Scottish  Horse,  as  a  member  of  the  Uni- 
versity troop  in  his  student  days,  was  the  de- 
ciding factor  in  this  choice.  He  served  with 
the  Scottish  Horse  at  home,  was  sent  to  Galli- 
poli  as  Quartermaster-Sergeant  with  the  ist 
Brigade,  and  rendered  such  valuable  service 
that  he  was  recommended  for  a  commission. 
On  the  evacuation  of  Gallipoli  he  proceeded 
with  his  regiment  to  Egypt,  where  as  2nd 
Lieutenant  he  was  for  some  time  attached  to 
the  Lanarkshire  Yeomanry.  Rejoining  his 
regiment,  he  went  to  Salonika  in  October 
1916,  acting  as  Adjutant  on  one  of  the  trans- 
ports. Later  he  was  attached  to  the  South 
Notts  Hussars  for  cavalry  work,  and  served 
with  this  regiment  until  he  was  killed  on  patrol 
duty,  near  Kakaraska,  on  the  Struma  Front,  15 
May  1917.  Lieutenant  Gilmour's  death  was 
a  great  blow  to  his  numerous  friends  and 
comrades-in-arms,  as  his  cheerful  and  obliging 
disposition  had  made  him  a  general  favourite 
both  in  school  and  on  service.

Elgin  and  Ripon, 
Kennedy  proceeded  to 
France  in  January 
191 6, and  went  through 
some  of  the  hardest 
lighting  of  the  war. 
Except  for  a  short  in- 
terval when  he  was 
invalided  home,  he  re- 
mained on  active  ser- 
vice until  he  was  killed 
in  action  near  Arras  on 
15  May  1917.  Both  he  and  his  brother,  Captain 
John  Kennedy,  proved  themselves  gallant  sol- 
diers, fulfilling  the  promise  of  their  school  and 
College  life.

leading  his  men  in  a  counter  attack  which 
succeeded  in  re-establishing  the  position  of  the 
Battalion.  As  a  student  of  Law,  Smith  gave 
promise  of  a  brilliant  future,  his  shrewdness, 
tenacity  and  keenness  in  debate  marked  him 
as  one  who  would  go  far  in  his  profession  ;  and

characteristic  t pisndes  in  which  the  humours  and 
contradictn  in-  of  hi-.  \\a\ward  spirit  are  en- 
shrined. But  the  central  unity  from  which 
these  bewildering  contradictions  radiated  baffles 
the  enquirer,  as  indeed  it  seemed  to  baffle  the 
possessor  himself,  lor  ever  in  pursuit  of  his  own 
realitv.  In  that  final  synthesis  strange  and  alien 
elements  coalesced,  the  tender  and  mocking 
irony  of  the  Abbe.  Coignard  did  not  disdain 
communion  with  the  austerity  of  Calvin,  the 
freshness  of  the  child  met  the  experience  of  the 
.  and  the  scoffer  embraced  the  votary. 
And,  like  a  radiant  vestment  to  his  inward 
riches,  none  could  fail  to  be  struck  by  his 
unique  courtesy.  This  quality  alone,  were  but 
all  its  implications  apprehended,  might  be  truly 
said  to  symboli/e  and  epitomi/.e  his  whole 
nature.  "  O  anima  cortese  I  "  is  epitaph  enough. 


SMITH.  WILLIAM  ALEXANDER  :  Lieu-

miller ;  born  Cruden, 
20  May  1880 ;  edu- 
cated (Gordon's  Col- 
lege :  graduated  M.H.,

the  North  Riding  In- 
ti  r  m  a  r  y,  Middles- 
brough, and  at 
Q  uee  n  's  Square, 
Lancaster.  Later  he 
was  in  a  country  prac- 
tice at  Wesham  in 
Lancashire  where  he 
was  a  very  popular  and  successful  practitioner. 

In  January  u;iy  Smith  was  commissioned  in

ANDERSON,      WILLIAM:    2nd   Lieu- 
tenant.    1st     Battalion     Lovat's     Scouts; 

son  of  William  Anderson,  Saphock,  Oldmeldrum  ; 
born  Fyvie,  1893. 

William  Anderson,  who  matriculated  in  Agri- 
culture in  1910  and  gained  the  University  Di- 
ploma in  Agriculture  two  years  later,  was  one 
of  the  best  known  and  most  popular  students  of 


his  day.  Coming  of  a  famous  family  of  agri- 
culturists and  Shorthorn  breeders,  he  had  an 
intense  interest  in  all 
things  pertaining  to 
the  farm  and,  while 
studying  at  the  Uni- 
versity took  a  high 
place  in  agricultural 
classes,  besides  gain- 
ing medals  at  stock- 
judging  competitions. 
I  le  was  also  a  promi- 
nent figure  in  the 
social  and  athletic  life 
of  the  University. 

Previous  to  joining 
the  colours  he  was  farming  at  East  Fingask,  Old- 
meldrum, a  line  farm  neighbouring  his  father's 
famous  farm,  Saphock,  and  here  he  was  success- 
fully applying  his  practical  and  scientific  know- 
ledge.

ill-health,  he  went  out  to  South  Africa,  where 
in  a  short  space  of  time  he  developed  an  exten-

many  public  positions  of  importance. 

Ross  joined  the  R.A.M.C.  at  the  outbreak  of

resident  medical  men  to  serve  in  France.  His 
health,  affected  by  the  rigours  of  campaigning, 
was  indifferent  and  his  duties  as  District  Sur- 
geon, Medical  Officer  of  Health,  and  Physician 
to  the  staff  of  six  mines  overtaxed  his  strength, 
he  died  of  pneumonia  on  4  June  1917.  His 
work  on  service  was  commended  by  those  under 
whom  he  directed  the  medical  organization  en- 
trusted to  his  particular  care,  and  his  personal 
popularity  while  at  the  University,  in  the  Army 
and  in  private  practice  was  a  tribute  to  his  win- 
ning personality.

Milne  was  commis- 
sioned    to      the    5th

1915,  and  after  nine  months  of  home  service  he 
crossed  to  France  in  March  1916.  During  the 
next  nine  months  he  saw  much  fighting,  and  was 
acting  Captain  in  comma  nd  of  a  company  when 
he  was  killed  in  action  near  Poperinghe,  Flanders, 
26  June  1917.  At  the  University  Milne  was 
an  enthusiastic  athlete,  but  when  the  war  came 
he  turned  his  back  on  sport  and  went  on  the 
great  adventure  overseas,  with  the  same  en- 
thusiasm as  we  knew  on  the  playing  fields  at 
King's.

for  ministerial  workers  in  the  Y.M.C.A.  Huts  in 
France,  and  was  stationed  at  Rouen,  where  he 
served  till  February 
1917.  The  excessive 
cold  of  that  winter 
brought  on  disease, 
against  which  he 
struggled  bravely,  and 
stuck  to  his  work  till 
the  end  of  his  term  of 
service.  His  health, 
however,  had  been  per- 
manently impaired,  and 
he  died  at'Oxnam,  near 
Jedburgh,  29  June 
1917,  sincerely 
mourned  by  his  congregation  and  his  many 
friends.

Field  Ambulance  was  posted  as  Medical  Officer 
to  the  i /6th  Seaforths,  with  which  unit  he  served 
until  his  death.  He  quickly  gained  a  reputation 
as  one  of  the  best  regimental  medical  officers  in 
the  Division,  keen,  gallant  and  conscientious  in 
the  discharge  of  his  duties.  He  was  awarded 
the  Military  Cross  for  gallantry  under  fire  at  the 
Battle  of  Beaumont  Hamel  on  13  November,

died  of  wounds  from  a  shell  received  while  in 
discharge  of  his  duties  north  of  Ypres  in  the 
action  of  July  1917.  His  cheery  optimism  and 
unfailing  good  temper  combined  with  his  high 
professional  abilities  procured  him  the  confi- 
dence and  esteem  of  all  with  whom  he  came  in 
contact.

gained  several  class  prizes  and  other  distinctions, 
and  received  licence  in  April. 

In  June  1914  with  patriotic  zeal,  at  the  age  of 
39,  he  enlisted  under  the  Derby  Scheme  in  the 
R.A.M.C.  After  three  months  of  training  at 
Aldershot,  he  was  sent  to  Mesopotamia,  where 
he  served  with  much  credit  and  devotion.  He 
died  of  heat-stroke  on  u  July  1917.  The 
Chaplain  wrote  of  him  :  "  He  was  beloved  by 
all  who  knew  him.  .  .  .  While  engaged  in  his 
strenuous  work  in  the  R.A.M.C.  he  played  the 
manly  and  Christian  part  .  .  .  and  finally 
crowned  his  ministry  of  service  with  the  supreme 
sacrifice." 

GUTHRIE,  ALEXANDER:  Lieutenant, 
1st  Highland  Brigade,  Royal  Field  Artil- 
lery; son  of  Rev.  \V.  G.  Guthrie,  Glass,  Aber- 
deenshire  ;  born  at  Corse  Schoolhouse,  Leochel- 
Cushnie,  8  October  1893  ;  educated  at  Ellon 
H.G.  School  and  Gordon's  College  ;  matricu- 
lated 1913  ;  student  in  Arts,  1913-15. 

He  enlisted  at  the  close  of  his  second  winter 


session,  March  1915,  and  received  a  commission 
as  2nd  Lieutenant  in  the  ist  Highland  Brigade 
R.F.A.,  in  May  of  the  ^^^^^^^^^^^ 
same  year.  After  nine 
months'  training  in 
this  country  he  pro- 
ceeded to  France  and 
took  part  in  the  de- 
fensive fighting  on  the 
Ypres  and  Arras 
F'ron  ts  during  the 
summer  of  1916.  He 
was  slightly  wounded 
at  the  Battle  of  the 
Somme  and  was  in- 
valided home  for  a  few 

months.  He  returned  to  France  in  the  end  of 
the  year,  followed  up  -the  German  retreat  from 
the  Somme,  fought  at  the  capture  of  Messines 
ridge  in  the  spring  of  1917,  and  was  killed  at 
Nieuport  in  Belgium  on  12  July  1917,  while 
trying  to  save  a  comrade  who  had  been  entombed 
by  the  explosion  of  a  German  shell.  He  was 
promoted  Lieutenant  a  few  days  before  his 
death  and  was  mentioned  in  dispatches  of  7 
November  1917  for  distinguished  and  gallant 
conduct. 

Possessed  of  a  fund  of  real  common  sense 
and  a  staunchness  on  which  his  friends  could  and 
did  place  infinite  reliance,  Guthrie's  influence 
was  great  and  always  for  the  highest.  If  he  had 
been  permitted  to  carry  out  his  intention  of  pro- 
ceeding to  the  ministry,  some  parish  would  have 
had  the  inestimable  benefit  of  a  minister  whose 
advice  and  assistance  could,  as  a  friend  has  said, 
"  put  confidence  into  the  waverer,  and  restraint 
upon  the  impetuous  ".

killed    in    action    near 


Yprcs,  31  July  1917. 
Even  at  school  Duthic 
had  shown  himself  a 
leader,  and  those  who 
knew  him  well  looked 
forward  to  tlu-  time 
when  he  would  prove 
himself  a  leader  of 
men,  and  life  would 
(all  forth  on  high  en- 
deavour the  energies 
and  abilities  which  he 
possessed  in  such  full 
measure.

three  years  at  the  Uni- 
versity, he  became  very 
well  -  known,  particu- 
larly as  a  skilful  cricket 
player,  and  his  bree/v 
good  nature  and  ready 
wit  made  him  a  general 
favourite.  "  No  'Var- 
sity function,"  says  a 
contemporary,  "was  complete  without  him." 

Immediately  on  the  outbreak  of  war,  he  joined 
the  4th  Gordon  Highlanders,  and  in  February 
ii)  1 5  was  appointed  to  a  commission  in  the  i2th

he  was  promoted  to  a  captaincy  and  awarded  the 
M.C.  for  bravery.  He  was  killed  in  action  at

killed  at  the  opening 
of  the  third  Battle  of 
Yprcs,  31  July  1917, 
whilst  carrying  on 
through  smoke  and 

darkness.  His  C.O.  wrote :  "When  I  last  saw- 
Spark  he  was  leading  his  men  in  a  very  gallant 
manner.  He  was  a  great  favourite  with  his  brother 
officers  and  men,  and  I,  as  his  C.O.,  appreciated 
very  much  the  quiet,  willing  way  in  which  he 
went  about  his  work.  He  was  splendidly  loyal, 
and  admirable  both  as  a  soldier  and  a  man."

out. 

While  a  student  Wilson  was  an  ardent  member 
of  "  U  "  Company  in  the  old  volunteer  days,  and 
this  training  proved  valuable  when  he  enlisted 
early  in  the  war,  joining  the  I4th  Argyll  and 
Sutherland  Highlanders.  He  proceeded  to 
F'rance  in  1916,  but  was  invalided  home  for  a

Instructor.  In  April  1917  he  joined  his  old 
Battalion  on  active  service  in  France  and  was 
forthwith  engaged  in  some  heavy  fighting.  During 
the  great  battle  of  31  July  on  the  Ypres  salient,

he  was  severely  wounded  and  died  the  following

deeply  grieved  at  his  death  for  he  was  ever  a 
smart,  keen,  conscientious  and  gallant  soldier. 
On  the  day  of  battle  he  led  his  men  like  a  hero 
and  never  once  flinched."  "  He  fell,"  says  a 
brother  officer,  "  accomplishing  a  piece  of  work 
which  has  yet  further  added  to  the  splendid  name 
of  this  Battalion."

•id    wrote:    "Although   outnumbered,    and 

under  climatic  conditions  impossible  to  adequately 

describe,  Captain  Howitt  and  his   men   beat  the

'  lock'   Howitt   died  fighting  to  the  last,  one  of 

the  bravest  of  the  brave.    .    .    .    Had    he  survived

chosen  to  play  for 
Scotland  in  inter- 
national matches  in 
1912,  1913  and  1914. 
After  graduating  Newton  at  once  joined  the 

Army,  receiving  a  commission  in  the  R.A.M.C. 

on    i    August    1915.      He  served   in   Egypt  and

record  at  Mackie 
Academy,  Stonehaven, 
he  matriculated  in  Arts 
in  1913. 

He  joined  the  Uni- 
versity Company  of 
the  4th  Gordons  in  his 
first  term,  and  on  the 
outbreak  of  war  pro- 
ceeded with  his  Bat- 
talion to  Bedford,  where  he  became  attached  to 


the  transport  section.  For  three  years  he  did 
good  work  in  this  department  under  many  trying 
circumstances  in  Belgium  and  France,  and  was 
killed  on  5  August  1917  by  a  bomb  from  an 
enemy  aeroplane. 

MacDONALD,  KENNETH  NORMAN  : 
Gunner,  R.N.R.  ;  son  of  Kenneth  MacDonald, 
ship's  carpenter;  born 
Lochcarron,  25  Sep- 
tember 1897  ;  educated 
Plockton  Higher  Grade 
School.  After  a  year 
at  Aberdeen  Grammar 
School,  he  entered  the 
University  in  1914  with 
a  Bursary,  and  began 
his  Arts  course  with  a 
view  to  studying  Medi- 
cine later. 

As      soon      as      he 
reached    military   age, 

however,  he  volunteered  for  the  Navy  ;  and  after 
a  course  of  training  at  Uevonport,  saw  service  in 
St.  George's  Channel,  the  Atlantic  and  the 
North  Sea.  He  was  awarded  a  special  prize  for 
gunnery,  and  upon  the  day  before  his  death  an 
enemy  submarine  was  sunk  by  gunfire  from  the 
mystery  ship  in  which  he  was  then  serving.  On 
14  August  1917  his  ship  struck  a  mine  and  was 
lost  with  all  on  board. 

Kenneth  MacDonald  was  only  19  when  he 
died,  and  was  one  of  those  who  seemed  to  have 
every  possibility  before  them.  Through  all  his 
school  and  College  days  he  passed  with  effortless 
distinction,  easily  first  in  his  classes,  and  intel- 
lectually clear  and  brilliant  beyond  his  age. 
Added  to  these  qualities  of  mind  were  the  still 
more  attractive  ones  of  humility  and  goodness, 
courage  and  readiness  for  sacrifice.  Like  so 
many  who  had  much  to  give,  he  gave  it 
willingly.

pected. .  .  .  He  gave  his  life  in  a  fight  which  was 
one  of  the  bitterest  and  hardest  this  Battalion

ion has  earned."

companions  of  "  U "  Company  for  his  keen 
sense  of  the  humorous.  Every  experience,  even 
in  the  dreary  days  of  trench  life,  contributed 
something  to  the  stock  of  good  stories  which  he 
loved  to  tell.

As  a  minister,  Dawson  was   conscientious  and

He  served  on  board 
H.M.S.  "Marmion," 

which  was  acting  as  a  convoy  in  the  North  Sea, 
and  went  down  with  his  ship,  21  October  1917  ; 
later  the  grateful  testimony  was  received  that 
"he  was  highly  thought  of  by  his  superior 
officers'".  Brown  had  little  time  to  make  his 
mark  at  the  University,  but  he  brought  with  him 
the  bree/y,  cheery  nature  of  the  dweller  by  the 
sea-board,  ready  and  willing  to  bear  all  the  blows 
and  buffets  that  man  or  Nature  might  bring. 

STEPHEN,  DAVID  JAMES  SHIRRAS  : 
Captain,  R.A.M.C.,  ;  M.C.  with  Bar  ; 


son    of    Alexander    Stephen,    draper  ;     born   at 
Fyvie,  21  June  1888.     Graduated  M.B.,  1910; 
M.D.,  1912.      He  was 
at     first     engaged      in 
hospital   work  at  Old- 
ham,     and     afterwards 
in    private    practice    in 
Lincoln. 

Stephen  received  his 
commission  in  the 
R.A.M.C.  in  October 
1914,  and  spent  some 
months  in  a  military 
hospital  at  Woolwich. 
He  went  to  the  Front 
as  M.O.  to  a  Brigade 
of  Artillery,  and  later  became  D.A.I). M.S.  to  the 
Division.  In  the  second  Battle  of  Ypres  he  was 
awarded  the  Military  Cross  "for  conspicuous 
gallantry  and  devotion  to  duty  in  attending  to 
wounded  under  heavy  shell-fire";  was  recom- 
mended for  the  Victoria  Cross,  and  a  few  weeks 
before  his  death  received  a  bar  to  the  M.C.  It 
was  at  Poelcapelle,  on  24  October  1917,  that  he 
died,  of  gas-shell  poisoning.  His  death  was 
characteristic  of  his  unselfish  devotion  to  dut\, 
for  it  was  in  attending  to  a  wounded  officer  that 
he  neglected  to  take  precautions  in  the  adjust- 
ment of  his  gas-mask.  Added  to  his  serious 
qualities  of  character,  he  possessed  a  never- 
failing  fund  of  cheerfulness  and  good  spirits — 
an  invaluable  asset  to  the  morale  of  his  batter}-, 
where  he  was  both  loved  and  missed.

to  the  Northern  Circle  of  the  Bombay  Presidency. 
In  1913  he  was  placed  in  charge  of  the  Knst 
Khandesh  Forest  Division. 

Transferred  on  the  outbreak  of  war  to  the 
Indian  Army  Reserve,  he  was  later  attached  to 
the  Indian  Infantry  and  sent  to  Mesopotamia 
where  he  was  stationed  at  Samarrah.  He  died  of 
enteric  at  the  Officers'  Hospital,  Bagdad,  on  29

MACLEOD,  WILLIAM  PATRICK  :  Lancc- 
Corporal,  1st  Kattalion  Seaforth  High-

agent ;  born  Storno- 
way,  9  June  1886  ; 
educated  N  i  c  o  1  s  o  n 
Institute,  Stornoway  ; 
graduated  M.A.,  1910. 
He  taught  for  a  time  at 
\i  wburgh,  Fife,  and 
was  later  English 
Master  in  Jedburgh 
Grammar  School. 

While  at  the  Uni- 
versity Macleod  be- 
longed to  the  "  U  "  Company,  Gordon  High- 
landers, and  later  joined  the  Scottish  Horse.  In 
September  1914  he  enlisted  in  the  7th  Seaforths,

Samarrah.  It  was  in  this  campaign  that  he  fell, 
being  killed  in  action  at  Takrit,  5  November 
1917.  Macleod  never  applied  for  a  commission, 
although  well  qualified  to  hold  one.  He  wanted 
to  belong  to  the  rank  and  file,  to  take  whatever 
was  going,  and  enjoy  no  advantage — even 
declining  the  supplement  to  his  pay  offered  by 
the  Jedburgh  School  Board.  On  service,  as 
in  his  student  and  teaching  days,  he  was  the 
same  honest,  brave,  unselfish  friend  and  comrade 
and  worker — vivid  and  charming  in  speech,  gay 
and  full  of  humour,  interested  in  men  and  in 
life,  unconventional  in  thought  and  outlook.

on  1 6  November  1917  while  advancing  in  an 
attack  on  the  ridge  of  Passchendaele  and  died 
the  same  day.  Though  of  a  quiet  and  retiring 
temperament,  he  was  a.  frank  and  generous  com-

for  himself  in  his  profession.

educated  Gordon's 
College  and  Aberdeen 
University;  M.A., 
1911  ;  B.D.,  1914. 
He  was  a  distinguished 
student,  gaining 
numerous  class  prizes  ; 
an  accomplished 
musician,  possessed  of 
a  fine  tenor  voice ;  and 
an  enthusiastic  athlete, 

as  was  proved  by  his  prowess  in  swimming,  gym- 
nastics, and  rowing.  After  licence  in  May  1914, 
he  was  Assistant  at  St.  Michael's,  Dumfries, 
whose  minister  testifies  to  his  "  strong  character, 
high  purpose,  and  decidedly  spiritual  cast ". 

In  January   1915  Skakle  enlisted  in  the  4th 
Gordon     Highlanders,    and     within    a    month 


received  a  commission  as  and  Lieutenant,  lie 
served  for  two  years  in  France  with  the  highest

after  recovery  was  promoted  Captain,  July  11)17  ; 
was  honourably  mentioned  in  dispatcher  by  Sir 
Douglas  Haig,  and  fell  in  battle  at  Containg,  21 
November  1917.  His  Colonel  wrote:  "lean- 
not  speak  too  highly  of  his  work  as  an  officer  ;  he- 
did  magnificently  ".  A  Chaplain  describes  him  as 
"  adored  by  his  men,  friend  and  counsellor  of  all  ".

A  foremost  member 
of  the  O.T.C.,  Clarke, 
on  graduation,  at  once 
obtained  a  commission

After  a  few  months  in 
training  he  proceeded 
to  France  as  Medical 
Officer  to  the  Queen 
Victoria's  Rifles,  a 
Battalion  of  the  London  Territorial  Division. 
For  three  years  he  remained  with  this  Battalion, 
was  in  all  their  hard-fought  engagements,  and  by 
his  zeal  and  devotion  to  duty  endeared'  himself 
to  every  officer  and  man,  gaining  the  Military 
Cross  for  his  valour.  He  refused  an  offered 
Staff  appointment,  stating  that  his  duty  was  to 
remain  with  his  Battalion.  And  so  serving  his 
country  he  met  his  death  on  the  Bapaume- 
Cambrai  Road  on  23  November  1917.  The 
letter  written  by  'his  Colonel  is  one  of  the  finest 
appreciations  of  service  it  is  possible  for  a  man  to 
have  had  :  "  He  deserved  a  decoration  ever)1 
time  he  went  into  action.  Only  the  day  before 
he  was  killed  he  went  out  into  '  No  Man's  Land ' 
and  carried  back  a  wounded  airman  into  our 
lines — but  I  could  fill  pages  with  his  bravery." 
His  Divisional  Colonel  wrote  :  "  You  know  how 
your  son  loved  his  men  and  how  he  would  dare 
all  for  them,  and  they  just  worshipped  him — no 
Doctor  was  like  their  Doctor.  .  .  .  Professionally 
he  was  the  beau  ideal  of  a  brave  regimental 
Medical  Officer."

in  Inter- Varsity  sports.  A  leader  among  men, 
he  had  a  courage  nothing  could  quell- — Minty 
always  came  up  smiling.  To  the  very  last, 
when,  though  wounded,  he  continued  to  com- 
mand his  Company,  he  was  still  the  heroic  and 
undaunted  figure  which  roused  the  admiration 
of  his  friends  of  College  days.

ated M.l!.,  with  Hon- 
ours, as  the  most  dis- 
tinguished graduate  of 
his  year  in  1911.  He 
was  then  appointed 
junior  assistant  to  the 

Professor  of  Anatomy ;  and  afterwards  held 
resident  hospital  appointments  at  Aberdeen 
and  Derby.  Davidson  was  a  zealous  worker, 
but  that  was  not  all  ;  his  zeal  extended  to 
every  phase  of  University  life  and  earned  for 
him  the  esteem  of  his  fellow  students. 

On  i  September  1914  he  obtained  a  com- 
mission in  the  R.A.M.C.,  and  served  in  Eng- 
land for  one  year,  then  crossed  to  France, 
where  for  over  two  years  he  saw  much  of  the 
heaviest  fighting  and  was  mentioned  in  dis- 
patches, August  1916.  He  was  reported  "  mis- 
sing "  at  Cambrai  on  30  November  1917,  and 
afterwards  "  presumed  killed  on  or  about  that 
date  ".  By  his  untimely  death  a  promising 
career  was  cut  short.

Alford,  i  August  1881  ; 
educated  at  Inverurie 
and  Gordon's  College, 
Aberdeen  ;  graduated 
M.A.  in  1903  ;  took 
honours  in  Mathe- 
matics 1904  ;  gradu- 
ated IS.Se.  in  1905. 
After  teaching  Mathe- 
matics and  Science  at 
Glenurquhart,  Stirling 
and  Nairn,  he  went  to 
America  where  he  stayed  for  some  years.  On 
his  return  he  was  appointed  Science  Master 
at  the  Royal  Academy,  Inverness. 

In  |uly  ic) 1 6  Adam  joined  the  Special  Gas 
Section  of  the  R.  K.  and  served  from  the  fol- 
lowing September  with  the  Expeditionary  Force 
in  France.  He  was  gassed  while  on  duty  on 
2  December  1917  and  died  in  hospital  at  Arras 
the  same  day. 

Adam  was  a  valuable  member  of  the  teaching 
profession  and  his  ability,  sound  scholarship  and 
strength  of  character  were  recognized  also  by  those 
with  whom  Army  life  brought  him  in  contact. 
An  officer  wrote  :  "  Life  under  Army  conditions 
he  seemed  to  detest,  but,  being  the  man  he 
was,  he  rose  superior  to  every  difficulty  and  did 
his  duty  ungrudgingly  and  manfully  ".

bulg,  Aberdeenshire, 
24  September  1888  ; 
educated  Fraserburgh 
Academy  and  Aber- 
deen ( iram  mar  School ; 
entered  the  University 
in  1908.  He  distin- 
guished himself  not 
only  as  a  keen  student, 
but  as  a  member  of 
different  University 
societies  and  an  enthu- 


siastic lover  of  games.  In  1912  he  graduated 
M.A.  with  first-class  Honours  in  Economics,  and 
went  on  to  the  U.l'.C.  Divinity  Hall,  Glasgow. 
Whilst  studying  there  he  worked  in  the  Boatmen's 
Mission,  and  spent  one  summer  at  a  mission 
station  in  Canada. 

After  the  outbreak  of  war  lie  worked  for  a 
year  with  the  Y.M.C.A.  and  in  February  1916 
enlisted  in  the  4th  Gordons.  Four  months 
training  in  F.ngland  prepared  him  to  go  to  France 
with  the  2nd  Gordons,  and  with  them  he  passed 
eight  months  in  the  trenches.  He  obtained  a 
commission  in  the  Lancashire  Fusiliers,  and  in 
September  1917  was  back  in  France.  He  fell, 
on  2nd  December  1917,  near  Cambrai.  Charles 
Buchan's  great  desire  had  always  been  to  do 
something  for  the  world.  He  loved  men  and 
found  good  in  every  one  ;  he  knew  how  to  be 
widely  tolerant  and  sympathetic  without  for  a 
moment  lowering  his  own  high  standard  or  yield- 
ing his  principles  ;  and  his  perfect  sincerity  and 
earnestness  won  him  the  love  and  respect  of  men 
of  all  types  and  characters.

Sutherland  Highlanders.  After  training  at  Ply- 
mouth, Godalming  and  Aldershot,  he  proceeded 
to  France  in  February'  1916.  Owing  to  his 
knowledge  of  chemistry  he  was  transferred  to  the 
Gas  section,  Royal  Engineers.  Though  re- 
peatedly offered  promotion  he  preferred  to  re- 
main in  the  ranks.  He  died  of  wounds  received 
in  action  at  Arras  on  2  December  1917.

At  the  outbreak  of  war 
he  was  in  his  third 
year  at  Arts,  and  read-

already  shown  promise 
of  fine  scholarship,  and 
was  hoping  to  enter 
the  ministry. 

Rejected  after  three  efforts  to  join  the  Univ- 
sity  Company  of  the  Gordon  Highlanders,  he 
went  to  Banchory  and  enlisted  in  the  local 
Territorial  Battalion  in  November  1914.  After 
a  year's  home  service  he  received  a  commission, 
and  was  sent  to  France  with  the  6th  Gordons.

during  which  he  was  mentioned  in  dispatches, 
he  was  killed  in  action  on  14  March  1918. 

Wark  is  remembered  by  his  college  friends  as 
essentially  boyish — light-hearted,  eager,  humour- 
ous, full  of  enthusiasms.  Through  all  his  life 
shone  the  same  sense  of  devotion,  of  dedication

It  was  only  by  his  unfailing  courage  and  energy 
that  the  work  was  accomplished ".  He  was  a 
man  of  remarkable  sweetness  of  disposition  and 
charm  of  manner,  with  a  quaint  humour  all  his 
own.  He  was  rightly  both  respected  and  be- 
1  by  those  who  served  with  and  under 
him.

landers early  in  September  1914,  being  posted  to 
the  Grammar  School  Company,  and  crossed  with 
them  to  France  in  February  1915.  After  some 
arduous  months  in  the  Ypres  Salient,  he  was 
commissioned  in  August  1915,  went  through  a 
brief  training  with  the  3/4th  Battalion  Gordon

in  January  1916,  where  he  served  continuously

March  1918  near  Beaumez-les-Cambrai,  at  tin- 
very  outset  of  the  Germaiv  attack. 

His  strong,  reticent,  but  magnetic'  personality 
inspired  all  who  knew  him  with  an  enduring  ad- 
miration and  affection,  and  formed  an  influence 
which  will  not  readily  pass  away. 


ROBERTSON,  JAMES  :  Lieutenant- 
Colonel,  R.A.M.C.  ;  son  of  John  Robertson, 
cooper  ;  born  Ab  e  r  - 
i.  1 6  October  1880; 
educated  Robert 
Gordon's  Collets  ; 
graduated  M.B.,  1904; 
M.D.,  1908;  Ch.M. 
(Hons.),  1909.  He 
studied  in  Dublin  and 
Berlin  and  acted  as 
Clinical  Assistant, 
Samaritan  Free 
Hospital,  London, 
winning  high  recom- 
mendation from  such 

eminent  authorities  as  Bumin  and  Nagel  of 
Berlin,  and  McCann  of  the  Samaritan  Hospital. 
An  appointment  as  Medical  Officer  to  the  Dooars, 
India,  gave  him  valuable  experience,  and  further 
increased  his  reputation  by  the  efficiency  with 
which  he  dealt  with  an  extensive  outbreak  of 
cholera.  On  his  return  to  Aberdeen  he  set 
up  in  private  practice,  and  was  also  appointed 
Senior  Assistant  Anaesthetist  at  the  Royal  In- 
firmary. 

When  mobilization  orders  came  in  1914, 
Robertson  was  a  Captain  attached  to  the  2/1  st 
Highland  Field  Ambulance.  In  May  1915  he 
went  to  France  where  he  rose  rapidly  in  rank, 
commanded  the  Ambulance,  and  was  mentioned 
in  Sir  Douglas  Haig's  Dispatch  of  Christmas 
1917.  His  death  in  action  near  Bapaume  on 
21  March  1918  cut  short  a  career  which  had 
already  done  credit  to  his  Alma  Mater.  Gifted 
with  a  high  intelligence,  accompanied  by  un- 
quenchable enthusiasm  and  that  possession  so 
necessary  to  the  true  research  worker,  imagina- 
tion, Robertson  would  have  justified  the  ex- 
pectations of  those  who  hoped  great  things  of 
his  future  career.

Coutts  gained  the  esteem  of  the  officers  and

fession, the  respect  of  his  pupils  and  the  con-  • 
fidence  of  their  parents.

commissioned  in  March  1917  in  the  4th  Gordons, 
with  whom  he  went  to  France  in  December  of 
that  year.  He  was  reported  "  missing  "  in  the 
great  offensive  of  March  1918,  and  returned 
prisoners  of  war  testified  that  he  was  killed  in 
action  on  the  morning  of  22  March. 

McKenzie's  ability  as  a  student  and  his  courage 
as  an  officer,  combined  with  an  absolute  sincerity 
of  character,  make  it  clear  that  he  would  have 
been  a  valuable  member  of  his  chosen  pro- 
fession.

TN  MEMORIAM. 


MORGAN',     JOHN":      2nd      Lieutenant, 
4th     Battalion     Gordon      Highlanders; 

son  (if  F.  \V.  ( i.  Morgan, 
builder  ;  born  Huntly, 
26  May  1881  ;  edu- 
cated Gordon  Schools, 
Huntly  ;  student  in 
Law,  1901-03,  1907- 
oS  ;  admitted  a  Law 
Audit  in  1906  ;  later 
pri/cman  in  Shipping 
Law.  From  then  on- 
wards his  work  in  the 
Sheriff  Court  fore- 
shadowed a  career  rich 
in  promise. 

The  war  was  but  a  few  months  old  when  he 
enlisted  in  the  2/4th  Gordons,  December  1914, 
and  became  C.Q.M.S.  before  joining  the  i/4th 
Gordons  in  France  in  the  autumn  of  1915. 
There  he  did  very  effective  work  in  the  trying 
time  that  followed.  Returning  home  for  a  com- 
mission, he  was  gazetted  in  December  1916. 
Spring  saw  him  back  with  his  Battalion  in 
France  ;  he  was  wounded  and  invalided  home 
for  a  short  time,  then  he  rejoined  the  Battalion 
in  January,  to  fall  fighting  bravely  with  his 
Company  on  the  fateful  22  March  1918.  His 
men  loved  him  ;  his  brother  officers  will  never 
forget  him  ;  staunch  and  steadfast,  he  compelled 
their  love. 


SUTHERLAND,  JOHN  :   2nd  Lieutenant, 
6th    Battalion    Lancashire     Fusiliers; 

son  of  Adam  Suther- 
land, crofter;  born 
Tarves,  28  March 
1891  ;  educated  Tarves 
Public  School  and 
Central  H.G.  School, 
Aberdeen ;  entered  the 
University,  1910; 
graduated  M.A.,  1913, 
and  during  these  years 
studied  and  gained 
various  certificates  at 
the  Training  Centre. 
He  taught  first  at 
Rothiemay  and  then  as  Assistant  Master  at 


Fetteresso  Public  School,  where  he  entered 
upon  a  promising  career  cut  short  by  the  war. 
On  12  February  1916  Sutherland  joined  the 
i/5th  Gordon  Highlanders,  and  underwent  train- 
ing in  England  till  November  when  he  crossed 
to  France.  After  serving  in  the  ranks  he  was 
commissioned  in  the  6th  Battalion  Lancashire 
Fusiliers,  i  August  1917.  lie  acted  as  Intel- 
ligence Officer,  later  as  Adjutant,  which  post  he 
held  at  the  time  of  his  death.  He  was  killed  in 
action  on  22  March  1918  when  rallying  his  men 
in  a  new  line  of  defence  at  Roisel,  having  worked 
unceasingly  and  fearlessly  in  organizing  the 
system  of  defence.  A  fellow-officer  wrote : 
"  His  fine  example  both  in  daily  life  and  in  the 
face  of  the  enemy  had  no  small  influence  on 
officers  and  men  of  the  Battalion  ". 

SUTHERLAND,  ROBERT:  Corporal, 
Special  Company,  Royal  Engineers; 

son  of  A 1  e  x  a  n  d  e  r

(II  Maths.)  in  1912 
and  B.Sc.  in  1915,  and 
was  appointed  Science 
Master  at  Inverurie 
Academy.  Sutherland  was  widely  known  among 
his  contemporaries.  His  delightful,  quiet,  unas- 
suming manner,  his  ready  wit,  and  his  willingness 
to  be  of  use  as  a  pianist  on  all  kinds  of  occasions 
made  him  deservedly  popular. 

In  June  1916  he  joined  G.  Special  Company, 
R.E.,  and  in  November  of  that  year  was  sent  to 
France  where  he  served  till  22  March  1918,  on 
which  date  he  was  reported  "  missing  and  be- 
lieved killed  ".

distinguished  career.     In  1914  he  graduated 

M.A.  \\iih  First  ('hiss  Honours  in  Economic 
Science  and  Sc-cond 
Class  Honours  in 
Classics.  Hi.-  gained 
the  Liddel  Greek  Pri/e 
in  1912  and  1914. 

Keenly  interested  in 
social  problems,  Suther- 
land saw  clearly  how 
war  would  endanger 
progress,  but,  like  a 
true  lover  of  peace,  he 
was  willing  to  fight  to 
win  it.  In  March 
1913  he  enlisted  in 

the  4th  Gordon  Highlanders,  serving  in  the  ranks 
at  home  and  then  in  France  from  February 
1915  till  December  1916,  when  he  was  com- 
missioned. In  October  1917  he  was  mentioned 
in  dispatches  and  was  awarded  the  Military 
Cross.  He  remained  in  F'rance,  taking  part  in 
much  severe  fighting,  till  he  fell  in  action,  while 
sen-ing  with  the  I2th  Royal  Scots,  on  the  Canal 
du  Nord,  on  23  March  1918.

talion South  African  Infantry  ;  son  of 

William  Smart  ;  born 
King  Edward,  i

graduated  M.A.,  1897. 
After  graduation  Smart 
went  to  South  Africa 
and  taught  for  several 
ye;irs  at  Wellington. 
He  then  became  Head- 
master at  Port  Nolloth, 
Cape  Colony,  but  had 
to  resign  owing  to  ill- 
_  health.  Later  he  took 

up  farming. 

Smart  enlisted  in  the  South  African  Infantry 
as  a  Private  and  served  in  France  until  24  March 
1918,  when  he  was  reported  "missing''  and 
afterwards,  "killed  in  action"  in  the  Gauche 
Wood  region. 

EWEN,  WILLIAM  JAMES  :  Captain,  3rd 
Battalion  The  Royal  West  Kent  Regiment; 


son  of  John  Kwcii,  sailmaker;   born  Kn/ic,  Hanff- 
shue,   10  May   1X90;   educated  St.  Joseph's  Col- 
lege, Dumfries  ;  student 
in  .Medicine,   1908-1 1. 

On  the  outbreak  of 
war  Kwen  enlisted  in 
the  R.A.M.C.  Ik- 
gained  his  commission 
in  the  3rd  Battalion 
Royal  West  Kent  Regi- 
ment in  July  1916, 
and  was  attached  to  the 
8th  Battalion,  serving 
in  France  from  Sep- 
tember 1915  onwards 
till  the  time  of  his 
death.  He  was  killed  whilst  commanding 
"  A  "  Company  of  his  Regiment  near  Chaulnes, 
25  March  1918.  Ewen  was  one  of  six  brothers 
who  joined  the  Army  in  1914  and  1915,  and 
possessed  all  the  soldierly  qualities  which  go  to 
the  making  of  the  fine  officer.  Many  wrote  their 
appreciation  of  him  and  of  his  work  in  the 
Army,  which  was  summed  up  in  the  words  of 
his  C.O.  :  "  He  had  done  magnificent  work  in 
the  very  strenuous  fighting  in  which  we  were  en- 
gaged, he  led  his  men  with  great  skill,  bravery 
and  dash,  his  work  while  in  command  of  the 
Company  culminating  in  the  glorious  example  of 
personal  bravery  and  perseverance  which  he  set  to 
all  his  officers  and  men  during  the  last  four  terrible 
days  of  his  life — all  of  it  was  simply  splendid".

up  his  studies  for  a 
time,  owing  to  bad 
health,  and  went  to  Borneo.

/.V  MEMORIAM. 


In  January  1916  he  "returned  from  abroad  to 
join  the  Seaforth  Highlanders,  in  which  he  served 
until  February  1917,  when  he  was  commissioned 
2nd  Lieutenant  in  the  Lancashire  Fusiliers.  He 
was  trained  at  Ripon,  from  January  to  April 
1916,  and  served  with  distinction  in  France 
from  April  1916  to  March  1918.  At  the  time 
of  his  death,  his  Colonel  testified  to  his  splendid 
qualities  of  leadership  and  his  gallantry  as  a 
gentleman.  Kennedy  was  one  of  the  medical 
students  who  were  given  permission  to  return  to 
finish  their  medical  course,  but  he  asked  his 
Commanding  Officer  to  be  allowed  to  remain  for 
the  attack  which  was  daily  expected.  His  re- 
quest was  granted,  and  now  the  Highlands  are 
the  poorer  for  the  loss  of  one  who  nobly  gave  his 
life.  He  fell  in  action  at  Maricourt  on  26  March 
1918. 

IRVINE,  EDWARD  WHITE:  2nd  Lieu- 
tenant, Royal  Field  Artillery  ;  son  of  Rev. 

John  A.  Irvine, 
Aberdeen ;  born  Liver- 
p  o  o  1,  30  September 
1897  ;  educated  Aber- 
deen Grammar  School ; 
student  in  Medicine, 
1915-16. 

Irvine  served  with  the 
Aberdeen  University 
O.T.C.  from  1915-16, 
and  with  the  Edinburgh 
University  O.T.C.  from 
1916-17  ;  he  was  com- 
missioned in  the  R.F.  A., 

June  1917,  gained  special  distinction  in  signall- 
ing, and  proceeded  to  France  early  in  the  follow- 
ing year.  His  military  career  was  all  too  short, 
for  after  seven  weeks  in  France  he  fell  near  Mor- 
court-sur-Somme,  at  the  head  of  his  guns,  lead- 
ing them  into  action,  27  March  1918.  During 
all  the  previous  seven  days  of  almost  continuous 
fighting  his  cheerful  courage  had  never  failed. 
Summing  up  his  character  one  who  knew  him 
well  wrote  :  "  He  was  a  son  to  be  proud  of,  a  friend 
to  be  loved,  a  man  to  be  respected  and  a  soldier 
worthy  of  the  highest  praise  ". 

HADDEN,  CYRIL  MARTIN:  Captain,

L.  Hadden  ;  born  Aberdeen,  11  November 
educated  Ardvreck  and  Charterhouse  ;  graduated 
M.A.,    1902  ;    B  .  L  . ,

1915;  went  out  to 
France  August  1915, 
when  he  was  attached 
to  the  ist  Battalion 
Royal  Fusiliers  ;  severely  wounded  November 
1916.  Returned  to  France  and  served  with  3rd 
Royal  Scots  Fusiliers  in  February  1917.  Killed 
in  action  near  the  Menin  Road,  28  March  1918. 

SENEQUE,  EUGENE  PROSPER  :  Private, 
Hampshire  Regiment  ;  son  of  jean  Joseph 
Seneque,  engineer;  born  Mauritius,  7  September 
1884;  matriculated,  1912  ;  student  in  Medicine, 
1912-14. 

When  war  broke  out  Seneque  was  a  third  year 
student,  and  instead  of  continuing  his  medical 
studies  he  enlisted,  October  1914,  in  the  Hamp- 
shire Regiment,  serving  first  with  the  nth  and 
later  with  the  ist  Battalion.  All  his  active 
service  was  in  France,  where  he  served  con- 
tinuously from  1914  onwards,  except  for  one 
short  period  in  hospital.  On  28  March  1918 
he  was  hit  by  a  bomb  and  killed  instantaneously. 
His  C.O.  wrote :  "  I  hear  specially  good  ac- 
counts of  his  behaviour  during  the  attack.  He 
displayed  great  coolness,  and  would  probably 
have  had  his  name  forwarded  for  a  decoration 
had  he  come  through." 

ARCHIBALD,  JOHN  :  Captain,  Gth  Bat- 
talioii  Gordon  Highlanders  ;  M.C.  with 

Bar  ;  son  of  Thomas  G.  Archibald,  architect ; 
born  Huntly,  10  September  1893.  He  was  edu- 
cated at  Gordon  Schools,  Huntly,  and  matricu- 
lated as  an  Arts  student  in  the  winter  of  1912, 
his  intention  being  to  enter  the  Church. 

He  was  mobilized  on  the  outbreak  of  war  with 
the  6th  Battalion  Gordon  Highlanders,  and  hold-

ing  the  rank  of  Sergeant  he  proceeded  to  Krance 
with  the  Battalion 'in  November  1914.  Severe!) 
wounded  at  Neuve 
Chapelle,  he  was  in- 
valided home,  but 
very  soon  after  re- 
covery he  returned  to 
France.  June  1915 
saw  him  commissioned 
in  the  6th  Gordons 
for  his  work  on  the 
field.  He  was  wounded 
a  second  time  during 
the  Somme  offensive 
in  1916,  and  after  a 
brief  spell  in  hospital 
returned  to  the  Front,  where  he  served  continu- 
ously until  the  spring  of  1918.  He  was  Captain 
and  Adjutant  of  his  Battalion,  when  during  the 
German  offensive  of  March  he  was  wounded  for 
the  third  time,  receiving  mortal  injuries  to  which 
he  succumbed  on  31  March. 

Suddenly  launched  on  a  career  so  very  di- 
nt from  the  one  he   had    in  his  mind  to 
adopt,  he  was  not  found  wanting,    but  gained 
distinction,  receiving  the  Military  Cross  and  in 
King's  Birthday  Honours,  1918 — Bar  to  M.C. 

McKENZIE,  LESLIE  :  Lieutenant,  Black 
Watch  ;  son  of  the  Rev.  Alexander  McKenzie ; 
born  Coull,  20  June 
1893;  educated 
Gordon's  College, 
Aberdeen  ;  entered 
Aberdeen  University 
as  bursar,  1911; 
Jenkyns  Prize  in  Classi- 
cal Philology,  1914  ; 
M.A.,  1915.  Astudent 
of  the  highest  promise, 
he  was  prevented  by 
the  outbreak  of  war 
from  finishing  his 
Honours  course  in 
Classics,  but  was  granted  the  degree  of  M.A.  /'// 
absentia. ' 

McKenzie  was  mobilized  with  "  U  "  Company, 
4th  Gordon  Highlanders,  and  on  i  January  1915 
was  gazetted  to  the  8th  Black  Watch,  with  whom 
he  crossed  to  France  in  May.  He  was  twice 


iely  wounded,  but  returned  to  the  Front  each 
time  and  served  until  wounded  at  Arras  so 
severely  that  he  died  at  Camieres  on  2  April 
1918. 

There  was  nothing  in  "  Homer "  McKenzie 
that  was  not  genuine,  and  everything  he  did  he 
did  with  both  hands.  He  never  shirked  spade 
work,  and  his  scholarship  was  all  the  more 
brilliant  for  being  sound.  Ever  unruffled  in 
spirit  by  the  heaviest  defeat,  he  must  have  de- 
liberately "  wangled  "  his  third  trip  to  France — 
otherwise  the  effects  of  his  wounds  would  have 
kept  him  at  home.  Still  young  in  years,  he  died 
a  man  who  confirmed  among  men  the  promise 
of  his  youth. 

JOHNSTON,    JOHN:     2nd    Lieutenant, 

Royal  Engineers  ;   son  of  William  Johnston, 

blacksmith  ;    born 

Hat  ton   of    F'intray, 

Aberdeenshire,    27 

August  1893  ;  student 

in  Arts,  1913-15. 

Immediately  on  the 
outbreak  of  hostilities 
Johnston  offered  him- 
self for  service,  but  it 
was  in  the  second  year 
of  the  war  that  circum- 
stances admitted  of  his 
entering  the  Army,  and 
he  became  a  Sapper, 

R.E.,  August  1915.  His  ardent  wish  was  to  go 
on  active  service,  but  an  appointment  as  drill 
instructor  caused  another  delay,  and  it  was  not 
till  the  spring  of  1918,  shortly  after  he  had  been 
commissioned  in  the  R.E.,  that  he  reached  the 
Front.  He  took  part  in  the  heavy  fighting  in 
March  of  that  year,  but  his  period  of  active  service 
was  brief.  He  had  been  only  five  weeks  abroad 
when  he  was  killed  by  a  sniper,  near  Messines, 
Flanders,  9  April  1918 — "a  fearless,  true- 
hearted  son  of  the  north  ". 

CHRYSTALL,  WILLIAM  :  Private,  Black 
Watch ;  son  of  James  L.  Chrystall,  house- 
painter  ;  born  Banchory,  23  May  1899  ;  educated 
Robert  Gordon's  College,  Aberdeen ;  student  in 
Arts,  1915-17.  He  was  a  brilliant  student,  and 
in  his  short  University  career  gave  promise  of

the  "great  orifices"  which  might  have  fallen  to 
his  "full-grown  energies ".  To  take  one  first 
place,  one  second,  two 
third  and  one  fourth 
in  two  sessions  is  a 
record  not  often  sur- 
passed. 

Chrystull  enlisted  24 
May  1917  as  a  FIT. 
in  the  4oth  T.R.H. 
Cameron  Highlanders, 
and  was  attached  to 
the  4th  Battalion 
Argyll  and  Sutherland 
Highlanders,  and  to 
the  i /6th,  The  Black 
Watch.  He  served  at  home  from  24  May  1917 
till  31  March  1918,  and  in  France  from  that 
date  till  10  April  1918,  when  he  was  killed  in 
action  at  Lestrem. 


MACILWRAITH,  WILLIAM  SYMING-

wraith,  ironmonger; 
born  Elgin,  16  January 
1885  ;  ed  ucat  ed  at 
Elgin  West  End  School

up  to  the  University  in 
1905,  was  a  student  in 
Arts  from  1905-08, 
and  student  in  Science 
1908-09.  Graduated 
M.A.,  1908.  The  same 
year  he  became  Science 
Master  at  Alva 
Academy,  Clackmannanshire,  and  three  years 
later  was  transferred  to  Tayport  Academy,  Fife, 
also  as  Science  Master. 

\Vhilst  at  the  University  he  was  an  enthusiastic 
member  of  "  U  "  Company,  4th  Gordon  High- 
landers. Alter  the  outbreak  of  war  he  was,  owing 
to  his  profession,  exempted  for  some  time,  but 
in  September  1917  he  was  posted  to  the  (ias 
Service,  R.E.,  and  in  January  1918  proceeded 
to  France  with  one  of  the  Special  Companies, 
R.E.  He  was  killed  in  action  at  Steenwerck, 
Flanders,  10  April  1918. 


HENDERSON,  JAMES  MACDONALD : 

Acting-Major,  4th  H  a  1 1  a  1  i  o  n  (J  o  rd  o  11 
Highlanders  (uttd. 
Argyll  and  Suther- 
land Highlanders) ; 
M.C.  with  Kar; 
son  of  James  M. 
I  Irnderson,  fa  r  m  e  i  : 
born  R  o  s  s  k  e  e  n,  6 
January  1891;  ed  u- 
cated  InvergO  rdo  n 
Academy  and  Gordon's 
College  ;  entered  the 
University,  1908,  as 
1 9th  bursar.  It  was 
to  English  studies  he 

turned,  and  he  closed  a  brilliant  progress  by 
graduating  M.A.,  1912  with  ist  ('lass  Honours 
in  English  (Seafield  Medal,  Minto  Pri/e). 
Henderson's  character,  as  it  gradually  revealed 
itself  to  one  who,  like  the  writer,  knew  him  first 
across  the  barrier  that  separates  teacher  and 
taught,  and  then  with  ever  increasing  intimacy  as 
Assistant  (1913)  and  friend,  was  a  continuous 
unfolding  of  new  depths  and  heights.  All  his 
work  was  excellent,  and  he  showed  himself  an 
enthusiastic  but  discriminating  student  of  the 
work  of  living  poets  and  prose  writers.  1  have 
had  few  greater  pleasures  than  that  of  a  daily 
intercourse  with  his  beautiful  and  modest  char- 
acter, his  ardour  and  conscientiousness  as  teacher 
and  examiner,  his  pure  and  genuine  zeal  for 
literature. 

Then  came  the  war,  and  a  new  revelation  of 
the  depth  and  strength  of  character  which 
underlay  the  eagerness  and  refinement  of  his 
mind  and  temper.  When  he  enlisted,  almost 
immediately  after  the  opening  of  the  session,  I 
admired  what  seemed  to  me  a  great  act  of  moral 
courage  on  the  part  of  a  retired  student  bound 
to  feel  acutely  out  of  harmony  with  his  environ- 
ment. It  proved  quite  otherwise.  As  a  Private 
in  the  2/4th  Gordons  he  found  points  of  contact 
and  sympathy  with  men  of  traditions  and  ex- 
perience the  most  remote  from  his  own.  He 
became  an  ardent  and  persuasive  recruiter.  In 
May  1915  he  received  a  commission  in  the  3/4th 
Gordons  and  soon  went  abroad.  On  active 
service  he  proved  not  only  a  conscientious  but 
a  courageous  and  able  soldier,  intellectually

interested  in   tin-  career  he  had  embraced  as  .in 

of  duty,   as   loyally   devoted   to    the   officers 

under  whom  he  served  as  he  had   been  to  the 

teachers  under  whom   he  studied.      In    1916  he 

Military  Cross  tor  his  courage  and 

enterprise  in  raiding  trenches,  and  in  April  1917 

a  bar  to  the  Cross  for  his  conduct  in  the  attack 

on  Yimy  KiiL 

A  man  of  his  line  and  sensitive  character 
necessarily  felt  the  cruel  and  terrible  strain 
of  the  war,  but  in  a  single  letter  only  did 
he  sound  a  despondent  note,  and  when  I  met 
him  shortly  afterwards  the  mood  had  gone  and 
his  note  was  that  of  cheerful  resignation,  with 
just  a  shade  of  contempt  for  those  who  were 
earning  distinctions  in  safe  billets  at  home.  Each 
return  showed  an  advance  in  self-confidence  and 
power  to  accept  responsibility.  He  was  at  home 
on  leave  from  the  yth  Argyll  and  Sutherland 
Highlanders  (to  which  he  had  been  attached  as 
Acting-Major)  when  the  great  German  offensive 
began  in  March  1918.  Without  waiting  for  his 
recall  he  hurried  back,  and  was  killed  in  action 
at  Locon,  11  April  1918.  In  a  few  years  he  had 
lived  a  full  life,  had  developed  from  the  shy, 
absorbed  student  to  the  brave  and  enterprising 
soldier,  to  the  experienced  and  able  and  trusted 
officer  who,  at  the  moment  he  fell,  was  Acting- 
Commander  of  his  Battalion. 

SKENE,     IAN:     2nd     Lieutenant,     6th 
Battalion     Lancashire     Fusiliers;     M.C.  ; 

son  of  Alexander 
Skene  of  Avondow ; 
born  Peterculter,  1 2 
July  1891.  He  was 
educated  at  Robert 
Gordon's  College,  and 
in  1908  entered  Aber- 
deen University  as  a 
student  of  medicine. 
He  took  a  whole- 
hearted part  in  the 
social — particularly  the 
musical — and  sporting 
life  of  his  class.  Apart 

from  a  love  of  books  he  was  not  a  student  by 
nature,  and  in  1912  he  went  to  Ceylon,  as  a 
learner  on  a  tea  estate.  There  he  found  a  wide 
and  congenial  field  for  his  energies  in  his  work 


as  a  planter,  in  athletics  and  as  a  member  ot 
tin'  (  Vylon  Planters' Rifle  Corps  and  Motor  Cycle 
( 'orps. 

As  a   student  he  had  served  for  four  years   in 
"  U  "  Company,  4th  Gordons,  and  in  the  spring  <  if 
1917  he  came  home  and  enlisted  in  the  ( i 
Highlanders.       He     was     sent     to     the     < 
Battalion  at  Gailes,   and  in  October  was  com- 
missioned    and     gaxetted     to     the     Lancashire 
.Fusiliers.      He  joined  the  i  ,6th    Battalion  of  his 
Regiment    in  France  a  month    later.      He  was 
one  of  those  who  at  once  adapted  theniM  i 
active   service  conditions;    in  March   19 1 X  the 
Divisional  Commander  wrote  to  his  Brigadier: 
"  Please  congratulate  2nd  Lieutenant  Ian  SI 
on  his  patrolling.     He  has  been  doing  a  lot  of 
good  work  lately."    He  was  awarded  the  Military- 
Cross  for  gallantry  in  leading  trench  raids  on  the 
i3th,  i4th,  and  151(1  of  March.     On  the  22nd  of 
that  month  he  w.as  wounded  and  taken  prisoner. 
On  13  April  1918  he  died  in  the  German  War 
Hospital  at  Valenciennes.

son  of  John  Munro  ; 
born  Stornoway,  10 
December  1889  ;  edu- 
cated Knock  Public 
School,  where  he 
served  as  a  pupil 
teacher,  proceeding 
afterwards  to  the  Nicol-

Aberdeen  University, 
graduating  M.A.  in 
1914. 

Before  the  war 
Munro  had  been  in  the  Ross  Mountain  Battery 
and  a  Private  in  "  U  "  Company,  4th  Gordon 
Highlanders.  In  August  1914  he  joined  the 
4th  Seaforth  Highlanders  as  a  Private  and  served 
with  them  in  France  from  November  1914  to 
June  1916,  when  he  was  sent  to  Gailes  Cadet 
Camp.  He  was  commissioned  in  November 
1916,  returned  to  France  and  served  till  he  fell 
in  action  at  Wytschaete,  Belgium,  on  16  April 
1918.  He  was  awarded  the  Military  Cross  on 
13  April  1918  :  "  For  conspicuous  gallantry  and

devotion  to  duty,  when  he  covered  the  withdrawal 
of  the  Battalion  with  his  platoon  until  it  was 
nearly  surrounded,  and  extricated  it  from  a  very 
difficult  position  in  a  most  skilful  manner". 

BOOTH,  JOHN  LYON  :  Captain,  the  Sea- 
forth  Highlanders  ;  M.C.  ;  son  of  Alexander 
Booth,  commercial 
traveller;  born  Aber- 
deen, 10  September 
1892  ;  educated  at 
Aberdeen  G  r  a  m  mar 
School  ;  matriculated

M.A.  1914,  with 
Second  Class  Honours 
in  Classics,  gaining  dis-

1  li  story. 

A  time-expired  Territorial  he  rejoined  the 
Grammar  School  Company  of  the  6th  Battalion 
Gordon  Highlanders  on  24  August  1914, 
leaving  a  post  in  journalism  in  order  to  do  so. 
Crossing  to  l-'rance  in  March  1915,  he  was 
shortly  afterwards  sent  to  the  Officers  Training 
Corps  at  G.H.Q.,  whence  he  was  commissioned 
in  the  2nd  Battalion  Seaforth  Highlanders. 
Thereafter  Booth's  advancement  was  rapid. 
He  rose  to  a  substantive  captaincy,  and  acted 
first  as  Officer  Commanding,  and  then  as  Second 
in  Command  of  his  Battalion — surely  a  unique 
record  for  a  Territorial  of  twenty-four  in  a  line 
regiment.  In  November  1916  he  was  awarded 
the  Military  Cross.  During  those  tense  April 
days  he  fell  at  Paccut  Wood,  near  La  Bassee, 
1 8  April  1918. 

Conscientious  and  resolute,  he  was  an  out- 
standing soldier  and  a  steadfast  friend.

and  Medical  Officer  to 
the  Notts  and  Derby

turned to  France  in 
1918,  and  a  fortnight 
later  was  killed  in  ac-

dressing  station  near 
Armentieres,  22  April

for  twelve  months. 
In  November  1917  he 
went  to  Palestine  and 
was  stationed  at  an

such  good  work  that 
his  C.O.  declared  him 
to  be  the  best  worker 
he  had  under  him. 
He  died  from  cardiac 
neuritis  in  a  military 
hospital  at  El  -  Arish 

on  2  May   1918.

January  1883  ;  edu- 
cated Robert  Gordon's 
College  and  Central 
Higher  Grade  School  ; 
student  in  Arts, 
1904-08.  He  took  a 
keen  interest  in  all 
'Varsity  sports,  and  was 
very  popular,  possess-

and  take "  of  the  real 
sportsman.  In  1908 
he  entered  the  teaching 
profession  and  held  appointments  in  Bervie, 
Klgin  and  the  Higher  Grade  School,  Aboyne, 
and  in  all  of  them  proved  his  ability  as  a  teacher. 
Joining  the  Royal  Field  Artillery  in  January 
1917,  Stuart  was  immediately  transferred  to  the 
Signal  Section,  stationed  first  in  Edinburgh  and

May  1918  from  the  effects  of  illness  contracted 
on  service. 

An  indefatigable  scholar,  Alexander  Larg  had 
acquired  a  wide  range  of  knowledge  of  the  litera- 
ture and  languages  of  Europe  and  gave  promise 
of  a  fruitful  career.  At  the  tinle  of  his  death 
he  was  preparing  a  thesis  for  the  London  M.A.

He  joined  the 
R.A.M.C.  as  a  dis- 
penser and  was  com- 
missioned in  October 

1917,  but  was  never  on  active  service.  He  died

MACDONALD,  JOHN  :  2nd  Lieutenant, 
Royal  Garrison  Artillery  ;  son  of  Alex- 
ander Macdonald, 
crofter ;  born  Gairloch, 
Ross-shire,  15  October 
1879.  After  passing 
through  the  somewhat 
meagre  training  open 
to  the  "  lad  o'  pairts  " 
in  the  more  remote 
districts  of  the  High- 
lands he  proceeded  to 
Aberdeen  University 
where  he  graduated 
M.A.  in  1902.  In  the 
following  year  he  was 

appointed  Assistant  Master  in  Castle  Douglas 
H.G.  School,  where  he  revealed  exceptional 
ability  as  a  teacher  of  Mathematics.  In  1910 
he  was  appointed  Mathematical  Master  in 


Hermitage  H.G.  School,  Helensburgh,  a  post 
which  he  held  at  the  date  of  his  death. 
Thoroughly  interested  in  his  subject  he  con- 
tinued his  studies  and  secured  in  1914  the 
degree  of  B.Sc.  (Lond.)  with  highest  honours. 

At  the  outbreak  of  war  Macdonald,  being 
refused  permission  to  serve  abroad,  joined  the 
Dumbartonshire  Volunteers  and  rapidly  rose 
from  Private  to  C.Q.M.S.  When  the  need  for 
men  became  acute  he  joined  the  Artists'  Rifles 
3  May  1917,  and  after  serving  for  a  few  months 
at  Romford  was  transferred  to  the  R.G.A.  Cadet 
School,  Uckfield,  Sussex,  whence  in  March 
1918  he  proceeded  to  France  with  the  rank  of 
2nd  Lieutenant.  He  was  killed  in  action  27 
May  1918. 

Macdonald  was  a  man  of  sterling  sincerity 
and  uprightness.  He  gave  no  half-hearted 
service  and  tolerated  none.  His  loss  is  one 
which  can  never  be  filled. 

JOHNSON,  JOHN  HERCULES  :  Lieu- 
tenant, Royal  Air  Force  ;  son  of  William 
Johnson,  Haroldswick ; 
born  Haroldswick, 
Shetland,  19  October 
1895  ;  student  in  Agri- 
culture, 1915-17. 
Johnson  was  one  of 
the  few  agricultural 
students  of  his  time 
who  made  his  influence 
felt  among  the  students 
of  other  faculties  with- 
out neglecting  the 
affairs  of  his  own  de- 
partment where  he  did 

useful  work,  particularly  as  Secretary  of  the 
Agricultural  Society  in  1916-17. 

He  left  in  April  1917  to  join  the  Royal  Air 
Force,  and  after  a  strenuous  nine  months  training 
as  a  Pilot  was  sent  to  France.  .  He  was  attached 
to  the  43rd,  a  squadron  of  single-seater  fighting 
'planes,  each  carrying  two  quick-firing  guns,  and 
soon  earned  a  good  reputation  as  a  fearless  and 
skilful  airman.  Near  Noyon,  on  9  June  1918, 
he  was  reported  missing  and  subsequently  pre- 
sumed killed  on  that  date.  His  Major  wrote : 
"  He  was  a  great  loss  to  the  Squadron,  as  he 
was  a  good  Pilot  and  very  keen  ".

On  the  outbreak  of  war  he  volunteered  for 
foreign  service,  but  owing  to  ill-health  he  was 
unable,  to  his  great  regret,  to  proceed  with  his 
Company  to  France.  In  August  1915  he  was 
commissioned  to  the  3rd  Battalion  Gordon  High- 
landers, and  in  July  1916  was  attached  to  the

GILLESPIE,    JOHN  :     Private,    4th   Bat- 
talion South  African  Scottish  (Infantry)  ; 

son  of  James  Gillespie, 
card  maker;  born 
S  t  o  n  e  y  w  o  o  d,  Aber- 
deenshire,  17  February 
1884  ;  educated  at 
Newhills  School  (where 
he  became  a  pupil- 
teacher)  and  the  Nor- 
mal College ;  matricu- 
lated in  1902  and 
graduated  M.A.,  1905. 
Teaching  was  his  bent, 
and  he  proved  him- 
self a  teacher  of  the 
best  type,  with  high  ideals  of  his  profession. 
For  some  eight  years  he  was  second  master  at 
Cults  Public  School,  then  filled  a  post  at  the 
Training  Institute,  Morija,  Basutoland,  and  later 
was  Mathematical  Master  at  the  Boys'  High 
School,  Rondebosch,  Capetown. 

Gillespie  was  a  true  pacifist,  so  sincere  in  his 
devotion  to  peace  that  he  felt  he  must  fight  for 
her  sake.  In  June  1916  he  enlisted  in  the  South 
African  Scottish  and  came  home  to  complete 
his  training.  After  some  months  in  England  he 
crossed  to  France  in  April  1917,  and  saw  some 
keen  fighting  with  a  Trench  Mortar  Battery  in 
the  9th  Division,  of  which  the  South  Africans 
formed  a  part.  His  C.O.  wrote  :  "  For  the 
short  time  he  served  in  the  Battery  he  made 
many  friends,  and  his  loss  will  be  deeply  felt 
by  all,  not  only  as  a  friend  but  also  as  an  excel- 
lent soldier".  He  was  killed  in  action  while 
serving  his  guns  near  Meteren,  west  of  Bailleul, 
12  July  1918,  having  seen  only  three  months  of 
active  service.

MURRAY,  IIKRKEKT:  Captain,  4th  Bat- 
talion    Gordon     Highlanders;      M.C.  ; 

son  of  Peter  Murray, 
builder;  born  Newhills, 
Aberdeenshire,  1 1  I  >e- 
cember  1885  ;  ed  u- 
iitted  Gordon's  C  o  1- 
lege.  He  graduated 
M.A.,  1908,  and  joined 
the  teaching  staff  of 
Gordon's  College. 

Early  in  1915  he 
enlisted  in  the  4th  Bat- 
talion Gordon  High- 
landers, and  after  a 
short  training  was  sent 
out  to  France.  From  April  to  June  the  Bat- 
talion was  constantly  in  action,  and  he  was 
severely  wounded  and  sent  to  hospital  in  F.ng- 
land.  In  August  of  the  same  year  he  received 
his  commission,  and  spent  about  eight  months 
as  musketry  instructor  at  home.  In  April  1917 
he  was  again  at  the  Front.  For  his  brilliant 
and  courageous  action  during  the  terrible  days 
of  March  1918,  lie  was  awarded  the  Military 
Cross  ;  and  from  then  till  20  July  1918,  when 
he  fell  at  the  Hois  de  Courton  north  of  Epernay, 
he  took  part  in  all  the  fighting  where  his  Bat- 
talion had  so  foremost  a  place. 

The  same  strong  and  lovable  personality,  that 
won  him  friendship  and  affection  all  through  life, 
stood  the  hard  test  of  the  battle  front,  and  the 
deeper  qualities  of  unselfish  purpose,  idealism 
and  devotion,  helped  him  to  meet  with  courage 
the  greatest  test  of  all. 


PATERSON,  CHARLES  GORDON  :  Pri- 
vate,  4th  Battalion  Gordon  Highlanders  ; 
M.M.  ;  son  of  James  R.  C.  Paterson ;  born 
Aberdeen,  18  April  1897.  As  a  boy  of  four- 
teen years  he  was  attached  to  the  Pathology 
Department  of  the  University  and  from  there 
was  transferred  to  the  Anatomy  Department  as 
an  attendant.  Paterson  was  a  bright,  frank, 
straightforward  lad  of  a  very  pleasant  and  like- 
able disposition,  ever  ready  to  perform  his  duties 
with  a  cheery  smile. 

In  November  1915  he  enlisted  in  the  Gordon 
Highlanders  and  after  undergoing  his  period  of 


i"

him  an  ideal  soldier, 
ever  cheerful  and  un- 
complaining and  ever 
ready  to  do  his  duty. 
On  21  March  1918 
he  was  decorated  with 
the  Military  Medal  for 
conspicuous  braver  y 
in  the  field,  and  was

MACKINTOSH,  JOHN  :  Captain,  (it  h  Bat- 
talion Seaforth  Highlanders  ;  son  of 

Lachlan  Mackintosh, 
bank  agent;  born 
Hopeman,  13  April 
1892  ;  educated  Aber- 
deen Grammar  School ; 
matriculated  in  Arts, 
1910  ;  graduated  M.A., 
1913;  LL.B.,  1915; 
I. von  Prize. 

A  'former  member 
of  the  4th  Battalion 
Gordon  Highlanders, 
he  re-enlisted  in  the 
6th  Battalion  Seaforth 

Highlanders  (his  own  County  Battalion)  as  a 
Private  in  September  1914.  A  month  later  he 
was  commissioned  in  the  second  line  of  that 
unit,  to  which  he  acted  for  long  as  Adjutant,  ris- 
ing to  the  rank  of  Captain.  Like  so  many  other 
second  line  officers  he  was,  despite  all  his 
efforts  to  go  overseas,  retained  on  home  ser- 
vice, until  in  June  1917  he  obtained  his  wish 
and  joined  his  regiment  in  France.  At  the 
Battle  of  Cambrai  (November  1917)  he  was 
wounded  and  invalided  home.  For  his  services 
in  this  battle  he  was  mentioned  in  dispatches, 
April  1918.  In  May  he  returned  to  France, 
and  on  23  July  1918  he  fell  in  action  near 
Rheims  after  several  days  severe  fighting  when, 
as  his  Colonel  wrote,  Mackintosh  "  had  done 
wonders  by  his  coolness  and  cheeriness  under 
circumstances  which  were  as  bad  as  they  could 


TN  J//i.1/('A' /./.I/. 


be".  AfkT  his  death  he  was  again  mentioned 
in  the  Kind's  Birthday  List  for  1918.  Of  great 
clearness  of  intellect  and  judgment  he  might, 
had  he  Keen  spared,  have  gone  far  in  his  profes- 
sion.

_^___^^^^^^^_  stationmaster,  Ellon  ; 
horn  Inveramsay,  28 
1  Kcember  1886  ;  edu- 
cated Aberlour  Public 
School  and  Gordon's 
College  :  entered  Aber- 
deen University  as  i^th 
P.ursar,  1905  ;  gradu- 
ated with  Honours  in 
Classics  1909,  and 
thereafter  joined  the 
Staff  of  his  old  school, 
Robert  Gordon's  Col- 
lege. 

He  had  been  four  years  in  the  University 
Company  of  the  4th  Gordons,  and  on  27  April 
1915  joined  his  old  Regiment  as  2nd  Lieutenant. 
From  November  1915  till  June  1917  his  special 
abilities  as  a  teacher  were  utilized  at  the  School 
of  Musketry,  Ripon.  Afterwards  he  served  as 
Adjutant  of  the  Reserve  Battalion,  4th  Gordons, 
till  May  1918,  when  he  was  posted  to  France. 
He  had  been  there  only  thirteen  weeks  when  he 
fell  at  the  head  of  his  Company  at  Chaudon, 
24  July  1918.  McHardy  was  a  strong  person- 
ality at  the  University,  and  an  excellent  soldier 
at  the  Front,  popular  with  both  officers  and  men, 
holding  to  a  high  standard  of  efficiency,  with 
this  compelling  impulse  that  since  he  \vas  a 
soldier  he  would  be  the  real  thing.

MILNE,  WILLIAM  :   Major,  Machine  Gun 

Corps  ;  son  of  George  Milne  ;  born  Boddam, 
14  April  1893;  matriculated  1911,  graduated 
M.A.,  1914.  He  continued  to  study  Science, 
until  the  outbreak  of  war  diverted  his  energies. 

Having  joined  the  R.A.M.C.  in  1910,  he  ap- 
plied for  a  commission  in  a  combatant  unit  and 
m  September  1914  was  gazetted  to  the  I4th 
i.L.L  and  was  sent  to  Aberdeen  to  recruit 'for 
his  regiment  in  the  North.  Although  consci- 


entious in  his  duty  he  cordially  disliked  being 
kept  at  home  to  point  out  to  others  what  to  him 
was  so  obvious.  After 
training  as  a  machine 
gunner,  he  succeeded 
in  getting  abroad  as 
M.G.  officer  with  the 
ist  Battalion  Ihiblin 
Fusiliers.  He  served 
through  the  whole  of 
the  Gallipoli  Campaign 
and  went  to  France 
in  time  to  take  part 
in  the  Somme  battles 
in  1916.  In  recogni- 
tion of  his  services 

and  unflinching  bravery  in  holding  an  important 
position  in  Belgium,  he  was  decorated,  April 
1918,  with  the  Croix  de  Gutn  rench 

General,  and  promoted  Major.  A  few  days 
later,  on  24  April  1918,  he  was  severely  wounded 
and  captured  at  Kemmel  Hill.  He  died  as  the 
result  of  his  wounds  at  Soldau,  Germany,  25 
July  1918. 

He  was  of  an  unassuming  nature,  as  reliable 
in  classes  as  on  the  football  field  and  as  he  later 
proved  to  be  on  service  ;  in  short,  he  was  one  of 
the  best. 

BEATTIE,  JAMES  WALKER:  Captain, 
R.A.M.C.;  son  of  Alexander  Beattie,  farmer; 
born  H  u  n  1 1  y ,  14 
August  1853  ;  edu- 
cated Aberdeen  Gram- 
mar School;  graduated 
M.B.,  1878 ;  M.D., 
1889.  While  still  a 
student,  Dr.  Beattie 
voyaged  three  times  to 
the  Arctic  Seas  in 
whaling  vessels.  He 
took  up  practice  in 
Sunderland  in  1878 
and  his  services  there, 
especially  at  the  docks 
and  the  riverside,  were  of  great  value  and  highly 
appreciated. 

At  one  time  Dr.  Beattie  served  in  the  Durham 
Artillery  Volunteers,  and  he  held  the  Long  Ser- 
vice Medal  for  service  in  the  Sunderland  Volun-

teer  Life  Brigade.  At  the  outbreak  of  war, 
though  much  over  military  age,  he  joined  the 
R.A.M.C.,  and,  on  being  offered  hospital  work, 
made  personal  application  to  be  sent  on  active 
service.  His  application  was  successful.  In 
May  1915  he  was  appointed  to  the  Hospital 
Ship  "  Asturias"  on  which  he  served  during  the 
evacuation  at  Suvla  Bay,  and  also  when  she  was 
torpedoed  on  her  way  from  Avonmouth  to 
Southampton.  Captain  Beattie  was  then  ap- 
pointed M.O.  on  the  "Warilda,"  and  a  fortnight 
before  his  death  was  made  O.C.  of  the  "  Aber- 
donian".  He  died  on  25  July  1918  in  his  66th 
year,  on  board  his  ship  at  Southampton. 

His  adventurous  spirit  and  high  courage  would 
not  let  him  accept  the  less  arduous  and  danger- 
ous lot  to  which  his  age  entitled  him,  and  Cap- 
tain Beattie  will  be  remembered  as  the  oldest 
son  of  his  Alma  Mater  to  give  his  life  on  active 
service  in  the  Great  War. 

FORBES,  ROBERT  ALEXANDER: 
Private,  Seaforth  Highlanders; 

son  of  Alexander 
Forbes,  M.A.,  school- 
master ;  born  Rose- 
hearty,  29  September 
1898;  Dux,  Rosehearty 
School,  1911;  Dux, 
Gold  Medallist,  Fraser- 
burgh  Academy,  1915  ; 
8th  Bursar,  Aberdeen 
University,  1915; 
studied  in  the  Faculties 
of  Arts  and  Medicine 
until  1917,  taking  high 
places  and  carrying  off 
several  prizes. 
He  enlisted  in  the  Cameron  Highlanders, 
April  1917,  and  after  training  transferred  to  the 
Seaforths.  He  crossed  to  France,  January  1 9 1 8 — 
with  the  2nd  Seaforths.  P'orbes  was  in  the  fight- 
ing during  March  1918  and  was  taken  prisoner, 
1 8  April  1918,  near  La  Bassee  Canal,  being  one 
of  a  detachment  sent  out  early  in  the  morning  as 
a  covering  party  to  a  company  of  Engineers.  He 
died  at  Lille  Military  Hospital,  27  July  1918. 

In  Rosehearty,  where  he  was  born  and  brought 
up,  Bert  Forbes  was  loved  and  admired.  His 
wonderful  powers  of  expression  and  his  whim- 


sical humour  relieved  many  a  situation  and 
brightened  the  hours  for  whatever  company  he 
found  himself  in.  On  the  links  he  was  a  de- 
lightful and  dangerous  opponent.  He  was  a  born 
student,  and  he  lived  long  enough  to  make  the 
natural  inclination  his  deliberate  choice.  Straight 
and  clean,  with  nothing  to  hide,  he  had  in  his 
make-up  a  certain  fineness,  a  tenderness  which 
with  his  other  pleasant  qualities  lent  real  charm 
to  his  personality.  It  was  no  wonder  that  here, 
where  his  home  was,  we  were  so  proud  of  him, 
and  expected  such  great  things  of  him — no 
wonder  that  we  so  deeply  loved  Bert  Forbes.

younger  generation  of  the  medical  profession 
has  lost  one  of  its  most  promising  members.  In 
all  his  work  he  was  brilliant,  conscientious  and 
painstaking,  being  destined  to  reach  a  high  place 
in  his  profession.

Ml' K  RAY,  ALEXANDER:  2nd  Lieutenant,

James  Murray,  joiner; 

fS^^^SSS^SSSSl  born  Oathlaw,  Forfar, 
i  March  1883  ;  gradu- 
ated M.A.,  1906  ;  As- 
sistant Master,  Mort- 
ladi  Public  School; 
Headmaster,  Glen- 
rinnes  Public  School, 
Banfifehire. 

During  his  ab> 
his  wife  acted  as  his 
substitute  at  Glen- 
rinnes  until  her  death 
in  1918,  when  Murray, 
being  still  on  active  service,  resigned  his  post  in 
the  School. 

Nothing  was  further  from  Murray's  thoughts 
than  a  soldier's  life,  but  in  November  1915  he 
enlisted  in  the  Gordons  as  a  Private  and  received 
a  commission  in  April  1917.  Whilst  on  service 
in  France  he  saw  much  heavy  fighting,  and  fell 
in  action  near  Arras  on  29  August  1918. 

MARR,    ALEXANDER    MURRAY  :      Cor- 
poral,    1st    Battalion    Royal    Scots    Fusi- 
liers ;  M.M.  ;  son  of 

Alexander  M.  Marr,  sta- 
tionmaster,  Tillyfourie ; 
born  Peterculter,  19 
April  1897  ;  educated 
Kemnay  H.G.  Public 
School,  from  which  he 
entered  the  University, 
having  gained  a  bursary 
at  the  Annual  Com- 
petition. At  school 
he  was  a  great  favour- 
ite, and  it  was  quite 
evident  that  he  took 
keen  delight  in  his  books,  for  he  made  marked 
progress  in  English  subjects  and  in  Modern 
Languages. 

After  one  session  at  the  University,  he  suc- 
ceeded in  joining  the  3rd  Gordons,  having  been 
rejected  several  times  for  medical  reasons.  For 


a  time  he  was  in  the  Labour  Battalion  and 
•afterwards  was  transferred  to  the  Royal  Scots 
Fusiliers,  acting  as  a  Lewis  Gun  Instructor. 
11 1^  home  service,  spent  at  various  centres — 
Kinross,  Catterick — 'extended  over  two  years. 
Though  repeatedly  "  turned  down  "  he  persisted 
in  volunteering  for  active  service,  and  was  at 
last  allowed  to  go  to  France,  where  he  spent 
six  months  in  the  thick  of  the  fighting.  He 
gained  the  Military  Medal  on  21  August  1918 
by  his  splendid  work  and  coolness  under  fire, 
and  was  killed  in  action  at  Xoreuil,  2  Sep- 
tember 1918.  No  better  appreciation  of  him 
could  be  given  than  that  written  by  his  Platoon 
Officer :  "  He  was  a  very  good-natured  and 
unselfish  lad,  keen  at  his  work  and  always 
willing  to  obey.  He  was  a  splendid  example 
to  his  comrades.  He  made  the  supreme 
sacrifice  with  his  face  to  the  foe,  doing  and 
daring  for  the  sake  of  humanity  and  his  native 
land."

moted  Captain  early  in  1918.  His  knowledge 
of  chemistry  stood  him  in  good  stead  and  he 
proved  an  excellent  and  most  efficient  Gas 
Officer,  who  enjoyed  the  confidence  of  the 
Staff  and  of  all  ranks  in  the  Division.  He  was 
killed  by  a  motor  accident  while  on  duty  near 
the  firing  line  beside  St.  Pol,  9  September  1918.

under  Sir  H.  M.  \V. 
Gray  and  the  late  Dr. 
Lister  at  a  Red  Cross 

Hospital  in  Wimereux,  France.  Wilson  resumed 
his  studies  in  the  beginning  of  1915  and  gradu- 
ated in  July  of  that  year.  He  immediately 
joined  the  2/2  Highland  Field  Ambulance,  was 
promoted  Captain,  and  posted  Medical  Officer 
to  the  32ist  Brigade  Royal  Field  Artillery,  then 
stationed  at  Heydon.  In  August  1917  he  pro- 
ceeded to  Salonika,  serving  first  with  the  63rd 
General  Hospital  and  later  with  the  8ist  Field 
Ambulance.  At  many  points  of  the  Salonika 
front  he  did  advanced  dressing  station  work, 
and  was  finally  posted  as  regimental  Medical 
Officer  to  the  gth  South  Lancashire  Regiment. 
He  was  killed  while  dressing  wounded  in  the 
final  rush  against  the  Bulgars,  18  September  1918, 
and  was  mentioned  in  dispatches  by  the  Com- 
mander-in-Chief,  Salonika  Force,  in  March  1919. 
Wilson,  by  his  courage,  high  ability  and  fine 
sympathy  was  a  general  favourite  among  his 
fellow-officers  and  men,  and  won  unstinted  praise 
from  those  under  whom  he  served  for  his  bravery 
and  high  sense  of  duty. 

LAWSON,  WILLIAM:  2nd  Lieutenant, 
1st  Battalion  (attd.  8th  Battalion)  Royal 
Scots  Fusiliers  ;  son  of  Robert  Lawson,  Beau- 


fort Home  Farm,  Beauly ;  born  Kiltarlity,  23 
March  1879  ;  gold  medallist  of  Inverness  Royal 
Academy ;  took  a  dis- 
tinguished place  in  his 
University  classes  and 
graduated  M.  A.  in  1900 
with  First  Class  Honours 
in  Mental  Philosophy. 
He  was  a  teacher  in 
Nairn  Academy,  there- 
after in  Ayr,  first  in  Rus- 
sell Street  School  and 
later  as  First  Assistant 
in  Newton  Park  School. 
In  1915  Lawson  en- 
listed in  the  151)1  Argyll 

and  Sutherland  Highlandersand  took  part  in  much 
of  the  hard  fighting  in  France  in  1916-17.  In 
January  1918  he  was  gazetted  2nd  Lieutenant 
Royal  Scots  Fusiliers,  and  spring  of  the  same 
year  found  him  serving  on  the  Macedonian  front. 
On  19  September  1918  he  was  killed  in  action 
in  the  great  frontal  attack  on  those  practically 
impregnable  positions  west  of  Lake  Doiran.  In 
such  a  shadowy  outline  one  might  sketch  the 
life  and  achievements  of  a  mere  acquaintance. 
To  refrain  from  adding  an  appreciation  on 
behalf  of  a  most  endearing  personality  would  be 
rank  ingratitude  for  the  boon  of  a  splendid  com- 
radeship. In  scholarship  he  excelled,  combin- 
ing with  his  high  natural  ability,  tireless  effort. 
Realizing  the  responsibility  of  the  calling  he  had 
chosen,  he  used  his  many  talents  to  their  fullest 
advantage.  Such  a  sincere,  wholesome  character, 
too,  must  have  made  him  in  his  capacity  as  a 
teacher  an  immeasurable  influence  for  good, 
and  on  children  with  their  hero-worshipping 
natures,  his  gallant  death  would  have  an  en- 
nobling effect. 

McFARLAN,  JOHN  BOYD :  Lance-Cor- 
poral, Argyll  and  Sutherland  High- 
landers ;  son  of  Donald  McFarlan,  master 
blacksmith ;  born  Gourock,  16  March  1890 ; 
educated  Gourock  Central  School  and  Greenock 
Academy,  where  he  obtained  an  excellent  record  ; 
student  in  Arts,  1908-12;  M.A.,  1912,  with 
honours  in  Classics,  having  taken  concurrently 
the  full  course  for  teachers  at  the  Training

Cartshurn  school,  Greenock,  in  1913,  where  he 
taught  until  he  enlisted. 

O  \v  i  n  g  to  family 
reasons,  and  having 
three  brothers  already 
in  the  Army,  Mcl-'arlan 
did  not  join  up  till 
1917.  He  served  for 
seven  months  at  home 
and  was  then  sent  to 
Salonika.  A  little 
more  than  a  year  later 
he  was  killed  on  the 
Bulgarian  front,  19 
September  1918.  It 
was  reported  that  his 

Company  was  cut  off  from  the  rear,  and  that  he 
and  two  others  went  back  to  establish  com- 
munications— all  being  killed.

and  in  April  1915  received  a  commission  in  the 
ist  Scottish  Rifles.  He  served  with  that  Bat- 
talion in  France  for  three  years,  gaining  the 
respect  of  his  fellow-officers  for  his  coolness 
in  the  face  of  danger.  In  1917  he  was  men- 
tioned in  dispatches  for  the  gallant  capture 
of  an  enemy  trench.  He  fell  at  Villers 
Guislain  on  21  September  1918,  while  lead- 
ing his  men  to  the  attack  in  the  face  of 


severe  machine  gun  fire.  The  lirigadier 
General  wrote  of  him:  "He  was  a  most  able, 
painstaking,  gallant  officer,  and  his  untimely 
death  is  a  great  loss  to  his  Battalion  and  his 
Brigade  ". 


MORRISON,  REV.. JOHN:  Lieutenant,  1st

afterwards  commissioned  as  2nd  Lieutenant  in 
the  ist  Battalion,  and  finally  became  a  full  Lieu- 
tenant. During  part  of  the  years  1915-17, 
owing  to  his  knowledge  of  Gaelic,  he  acted  as 
recruiting  officer  in  Inverness-shire,  and  was 
specially  commended  by  the  War  Office  for  his 
services  in  that  capacity.  Thereafter  he  went 
to  France,  and  was  killed  by  a  shell  near  St. 
Quentin  on  24  September  1918.  In  the  words 
of  one  who  knew  him  well,  Morrison  was  "a 
brave  officer  and  a  good  man,  faithful  to  his 
calling  as  minister  and  soldier  ".

rincourt  on  27  September  1918.  The  Chaplain 
of  the  Battalion  wrote  of  him  :  "  He  put  his 
duty  first ;  he  was  eager  to  do  it,  active  in 
the  discharge  of  it,  and  to  be  relied  on  to  do 
it  satisfactorily  and  well.  He  had  the  faculty 
of  making  and  keeping  friends,  and  we  found 
him  a  true,  loyal  and  helpful  comrade."

tember 1918.  Booth  had  a  singularly  amiable 
and  attractive  disposition,  and  showed  exceptional 
ability  as  a  student.  He  was  well  versed  in 
English  literature,  and  had  rare  gifts  of  style  and 
expression,  combined  with  a  generosity  and  big- 
ness of  nature  which  made  him  wish  to  share 
with  others  the  richness  of  his  own  wide 
reading.

Brace  had  never  en- 

'  robust  health.  After  the  outbreak  of  war, 
being  unfit  for  field  service,  he  took  up  work 
under  the  Board  of  Agriculture  and  Fisheries  and 
also  worked  for  a  time  with  Agricultural  .Tractors. 
At  the  beginning  of  1917  he  obtained  a  com- 
mission in  the  Royal  Fusiliers,  and  in  October 
1918  became  a  Paymaster  Sub-Lieutenant  in  the 
R.N.V.R.  A  few  days  afterwards  he  fell  a 
victim  to  pneumonia  from  which  he  died  26 
October  1918.  His  pleasant  manner  and  kindly 
cheerful  nature  made  him  a  favourite  with  all 
who  knew  him.

tered the  Cadet  School, 
Gailes,  to  train  for  :i

January  1918  was 
gazetted  2nd  Lieuten-

and  later  practised  in 

London. 

On  22  March  1917, 
Keane  received  a  com- 
mission  in  the 
R.A.M.C,  being  M.O. 
to  the  38th  Motor 

Ambulance  Convoy  attached  to  the  Serbian 
Army.  He  landed  in  Salonika  in  June  1917 
and  served  there  until  his  death  from  pneumonia 
on  31  October,  1918. 

WALKER,  ROBERT  SHAND  :  Signaller, 
Royal  Garrison  Artillery  ;  son  of  William 
Walker,  schoolmaster,  Glentanar  ;  born  Aboyne, 
27  May  1898  ;  entered  Gordon's  College  in  1910 
as  First  Foundationer.  In  each  of  his  five  years 
he  was  Dux  of  his  class,  probably  a  unique  per- 
formance. He  entered  the  University  in  1915 
as  2nd  Bursar,  and  his  brief  career  was  of  a 
piece  with  his  school  record. 

Walker  joined  the  Royal  Garrison  Artillery  in 


TN  MKMORL-IM. 


July  1916.  Hi-  was  lor  some  time  Corporal  and 
Instructor  in  Signalling  at  Lochend  but,  at  his 
own  request,  reverted 
and  went  to  •Catterick 
for  a  course  of  wire- 
less telegraphy.  He 
crossed  to  France  in 
August  1918,  and  was 
killed  in  action  near  Le 
Quesnoy  Station  on  4 
November  1918. 

In  Robert  Walker 
there  w  as  a  s  p  i  r  i  t 
touched  to  the  finest 
issues.  His  was  a  far 
forward  outlook,  and 

he  turned  neither  to  the  right  hand  nor  to 
the  left  from  his  fixed  course,  but  duty  meant 
,  thing  to  him,  and  in  the  war  he  recogni/.ed 
a  duty  that  over-rode  every  other  consideration. 
It  was  not  rash  boyishness  or  the  illusion  of 
adventure  that  made  him  hide  his  age  and  try 
to  join  the  Gunners  in  the  early  months  of  the 
war,  it  was  because  he  felt  that  he  ought  to 
give  his  strength,  his  intelligence  and  all  that  was 
best  in  him  to  his  country  in  her  hour  of  need. 

DOW,    JOHN:    Captain,    I. M.S.  ;    son    of

graduated  M.A.,  1910  ; 
M.H.,  1914.  He  was 
appointed  one  of  the 
House  Surgeons  at  the 
Aberdeen  Royal  In- 
firmary, which  he  left 
in  the  spring  of  1915 
on  taking  a  commission  in  the  R.A.M.C.  (T.F.). 
He  was  gazetted  to  the  2/ist  Highland 
Casualty  Clearing  Station,  from  which  he  was 
transferred  a  year  later  with  the  rank  of  Captain 
to  the  Indian  Medical  Service.  In  India,  he 
served  in  Peshawar  and  Kisalpur,  and  was  then 
sent  to  Mesopotamia  where  he  remained  for  a 


year,  doing  valuable  and  important  work  con- 
nected with  the  staffing,  equipment  and  trans- 
port of  hospitals.  From  Mesopotamia  he  was 
ordered  to  1'ersia,  where  he  served  for  a  year 
and  a  half.  While  working  at  an  outpost  fort, 
Khaneh  /inian,  thirty  miles  from  Shira/,  inflr 
broke  out.  He  remained  on  duty  till  himself 
stricken  with  the  disease,  when  he  was  removed 
to  Shiraz  where  he  died  two  days  later — on  5 
November  191  S. 

Dow  has  been  described  as  having  "the  quiet 
humour  of  the  true  North  man,''  whilst  his  enthu- 
siasm for  his  profession  was  great.

the  White  Sea,  where  he  was  in  command  of 
fortifications.  He  died  at  Archangel  on  6 
November  1918  of  illness  contracted  on  service. 

Ambitious  and  self-reliant,  Meston  Reid  could 
have  looked  forward  to  a  successful  career  but 
when  the  war  interrupted  the  work  he  had  chosen,

Donald  Macrae  was  a  popular  personality  at 
school,  college  and  in  the  field,  with  a  great  love 
of  the  open-air  and  manly  pastimes.  The  war 
found  him  strong  in  native  grit  and  courage,  with 
instinctive  loyalty  and  patriotism  veiled  by  true 
Scottish  reserve.  Devotion  to  duty  and  keen- 
ness for  the  fray  were  his  distinctive  character- 
istics.

In  September  H)i4  liovil  joined  the  R.A.M.C  '. 
and  was  promoted  Captain  in  September  1915. 
Karly  in  that  year  he 
saw  service  in  France, 
but  unfortunately  his 
health  broke  down  ;  he 
was  invalided  home, 
and  in  1916  resigned 
his  commission.  Later 
with  improving  health, 
and  indomitable  as 
.  he  set  up  in  prac- 
tice in  Braemar, but  suc- 
cumbed to  pneumonia 
following  influenza  on 
1 3  I  >ecember  1918. 
While  a  student  lioyd,  although  of  a  retiring 
disposition,  was  well  known  in  the  University 
Societies  but  "Robin"  was  known  only  to  a 
small  circle  of  friends,  who  alone  had  the 
privilege  of  knowing  his  wide  knowledge  of  men 
and  books  and  of  enjoying  his  quiet  humour  and 
the  companionship  of  his  kindly  nature.  But 
Boyd  at  his  best  was  seen  in  that  Highland 
glen  where  he  chose  to  work,  and  where  his 
memory  still  lingers  as  the  country  doctor — • 
"The  Lone  Man  in  the  Gig"  who  "brings 
air  and  cheer  into  the  sick  room,  and  often 
enough,  though  not  so  often  as  he  wishes,  brings 
healing  ".

at  the  Battle  of  Loos  and  invalided  home.  In 
March  1916  he  was  transferred  to  the  Royal

eighteen  months  he  served  with  the  Special

when  he  was  taken  suddenly  ill  and  die

Teunon  had  no  liking  for  the  monotony  and 
routine  of  the  soldier's  life,  patriotism  had  made 
him   do  the  thing  he  loathed  for  the  thing  he 
loved — his  death  seemed  specially  untimel 
curring  as  it  did  so  soon  after  the  Armistice.

MINTO,   WILLIAM    BAIN  GRIFFITHS  : 

Lieutenant-Colonel,  Royal  Garrison 
Artillery  ;  son  of  William  Minto,  late  Professor 
of  English  and  Logic,  Aberdeen  University  ;  born 
Aberdeen,  1 3  November  1 880  ;  educated  at  the 
Grammar  School;  graduated  M.A.,  1901;  stu- 
dent in  Law,  1901-03;  qualified  as  Law  Agent, 


and  became  a  member  of  the  firm  of  Messrs.  Wil- 
liamson liooth,  Mintos  .X:  Morrison,  Aberdeen. 

Minto  served  in  the 
Volunteer  Forces  for 
many  years  before  the 
war,  being  gazetted  2nd 
Lieutenant,  ist  Aber- 
deenshire  Royal  Garri- 
son Artillery  (Vol.), 
1900 ;  Major  (North 
Scottish)  R.G.A.,  1908. 
He  was  mobilized  on 
the  outbreak  of  war 
and  put  in  command 
of  Torry  Battery,  Aber- 
deen. From  August 
1916  to  August  1917  he  served  in  France  in 
command  of  the  I5ist  Siege  I  lattery,  R.G.A., 
and  was  promoted  Lieutenant-Colonel,  6  August 
1918.  On  returning  to  Aberdeen  he  resumed 
command  of  the  Torry  Battery,  and  was  subse- 
quently appointed  Garrison  Commander,  the 
chief  military  post  in  the  city.  He  was  awarded 
the  Territorial  Decoration  in  May  1919,  and 
died  2  July  1919  from  injuries  received  while 
firing  the  peace  salute  at  Aberdeen. 

Minto  was  a  most  efficient  officer  with  a 
thorough  knowledge  of  Artillery  work.  F'irm 
and  exacting  in  handling  men,  he  was  at  the 
same  time  very  popular.  He  combined 
organizing  ability  with  social  gifts  of  a  high 
order  and  his  frankness,  vivacity  and  bonhomie 
made  him  welcome  in  every  circle.  His  speech 
was,  like  his  figure,  neat  and  well-knit  and  there 
is  no  doubt  that  if  he  had  lived  to  resume 
practice,  he  would  have  gained  distinction  as  a 
ready  pleader  in  the  courts.  There  remains  with 
all  who  knew  him  the  memory  of  a  versatile  and 
attractive  personality.

thought  for  the  well- 
being  of  his  men  by 
whom  he  was  be-

cated   at    Echt    Public

promise    of    a   brilliant 
career  in  his  profession.

break of  war  he  had 
served  iii  the  Lothian 
and  Border  Horse  for 

1 1  years,  and  was  called 
up  on  4   August    1914.

cember 1886;  educated

of  extreme  hostile  shelling  he  led  stretcher- 
bearers,  collecting  the  wounded  and  gassed  cases,

the  saving  of  many  lives".  In  March  1919  he

results  of  his  long  and  arduous  period  of  active 
service,  proved  fatal  and  he  died  at  Murtle, 
Aberdeenshire,  on  16  November  1920. 

The  testimony  of  his  comrades  goes  to  show 
that  the  whole  of  his  service  at  the  Front  was  dis- 
tinguished by  cheerful  and  unswerving  devotion 
to  duty ;  fully  in  keeping  with  his  bravery  in  the 
field  was  his  imperturbable  courage  in  facing 
what,  for  many  months,  he  knew  to  be  the  in- 
evitable end  of  his  illness.

he  was  invalided  home.  He  saw  further  service  in 
India  and  Mesopotamia,  but,  never  completely 
recovered  from  the  illness  contracted  through 
exposure  on  the  battlefield,  he  died  in  the  3rd 
British  General  Hospital,  Basra,  14  March  1921. 
The  ability  which  had  earned  him  distinctions  at 
the  University  won  him  awards  in  the  Army ;  he 
gained  the  Military  Cross,  3  May  1917,  and  was 
mentioned  in  dispatches,  June  1917.
