Edinburgh 4.7.1897 killed Vimy Ridge 9.4.17 after leading his platoon to the second line of German trenches. Erected by his parents Robert and Mrion Adams. Memorial, Corstophine IWM – Stewart Melville 1915 – also AW Adams has received a comm. ?JAWA – James Alison Wilson Adams 2/Lt RS son of Robert Adams, Garleton, Belgrave Rd, Corstorphine and Shandwick Place, Edinburgh. Left Daniel Stewart’s July 1914. Dental apprentice to Mr Girdwood, Ainslie Place. While at the College he was a member of the Cadet Corps and in Sept 15 received comm and posted RS. Sent to the front early in January 1917 and fell in action 9.4.17 while taking part in the great advance. He was in command of a platoon, his obj being the second line Germna trench. He had gained his obj and was on the parapet encouraging his men when he was instantaneously killed. A somewhat shy boy of a sweet and winning disposition he was a universal favourite at school alike with masters and pupils. As he was at school so he was in the army. “His platoon adored him” says his Captain and the Chaplain of his bn writes that “he left a very sweet and fragrant memory”… A mere boy in years and youthful-looking even for his age, he had yet won and retained the confidence of his men by virtue of his fine qualities of head and heart. The Adjutant writes: “I remember his joining us at Peebles. He looked so young that one wondered if he was not altogether too much of a boy to be put in charge of grown men. But we soon saw that here was no ordinary boy. He was earnest in his work, eager to learn, willing, obedient, and courteous, and he soon won his way to our hearts and our esteem.” “As time went on and he developed, I came to look upon him as one of my most trusted platoon commanders. ‘Little Adams,’ as the company sergeant-major and I called him, was soon the officer in my company who was looked upon as steady, cool and reliable. By the time we were in Selkirk, I used to hand over to him a complete platoon of sixty untrained recruits. You could see these men smile to themselves when they were handed over to such a youngster. But they soon discovered who was uppermost, and they took no liberties after a few days. After a few weeks they didn’t want to take any, for they trusted and loved their officer. They would have gone anywhere and done anything for him, and they boasted openly of him to other men. He won their respect and had the truest and highest qualities of the British officer. The surest indication of a man’s character is shown by how his men regard him, and ‘Little Adams’ was worshipped by his men. Later in Stobs he did excellent work, and when we moved down to this strenuous command he was chosen to the most important subaltern’s position, i.e. instructor of musketry to the whole battalion. I knew he felt it a heavy load, but right well did he carry it during his appointment and gained further credit. Again and again he was retained from drafts owing to his instructional powers, but the time came at last for him to leave us. Right gallantly he went, as we knew he would, to face what lay before him. And when I learnt the news on returning from London, I felt as if I had lost a dear friend. “My servant met me at the station, and it was the first thing he said. He in common with us all was a devoted admirer of James. “I am afraid I cannot put on paper all we thought of the boy, but his devotion to duty, his cheerfulness, amd his clean manly life and example have been and will be for good in the lives of all the men who had the honour to seve under him. “He died as he lived, wih the thought of devotion to duty in the service of his King and Country, and fighting in the noblest cause for which men have ever fallen. His memory will live in the annals of our regiment as one who was well worthy of the old ‘Royals,’ an officer of His Majesty’s First Regiment, and a worthy hero.” | – |

| Affleck, Robert B. DALKEITH ‘DANDY NINTH’ MAN KILLED Intimation has been received by Mr and Mrs Affleck that their son, Private Robert B. Affleck, 1/9th Royal Scots, was killed by the bursting of a shell in the trenches on Saturday last. Private Affleck was a prominent cricketer, who had done much for the success of the Dalkeith Cricket Club, both as a player and also as secretary. He was an official of the National Health Insurance, and a lad of great promise. He was twenty-two years of age. Edinburgh Evening Dispatch 15th May 1915 – One of the most striking memories of Sanctuary Wood was Pearson and Afflecks graves W.Grossart IWM doc 5929 – ‘We were in the middle of breakfast when we got word that shells had burst over our trenches & stretchers were on their way down.

| Affleck, Robert Bell, Pte 2112 b. Lochmaben, memorials Buccleuch Street Church, Dalkeith; Dalkeith; Dalkeith High School. Son of James and Eliza Affleck [Dalkeith Advertiser 20 May 1915]: A feeling of profound regret has been caused locally by the intimation received, in the end of last week, that Private Robert B. Affleck, 1/9th Battalion (Highlanders), the Royal Scots had been killed in action on 8th May. The sad news was conveyed in a letter from a comrade at the front to the deceased’s parents, Mr and Mrs James Affleck, 4 Muirpark. It seems that an enemy shell burst in the trenches, inflicting injuries, to which he succumbed in half-an-hour, on young Affleck, and wounding two others. Four of his comrades took up his body and gave it reverent burial near the scene of action at Ypres. Prior to the outbreak of war, Private Affleck was employed in the Frederick Street Office (Edinburgh) of the Scottish Insurance Commissioners, with every prospect of a bright and successful future before him, but when the appeal went forth calling the manhood of the country to arms he unhesitatingly cast aside all personal considerations, and offered his service to the “Dandy Ninth”. Deceased, who was 22 years of age, was a well-known member of Dalkeith Cricket Club, to which he has acted as secretary up to the time of his enlisting, and was one of the most enthusiastic and successful players the club has possessed in recent years. His batting was exceedingly steady and he had many fine scores to his credit, whilst his fielding was always brilliant, either at cover-point or slip. In that connection it is sufficient to say that during four successive matches last season he secured ten catches. Popular alike with players and spectators of the summer game, he will be greatly missed. Practically every available member of last year’s first and second elevens have enlisted, and the club will, therefore, not be able to carry out a very fine card of fixtures arranged for this summer. At the close of the service in Buccleuch Street Church last Sabbath morning, Mr Fraser made sympathetic reference. He said that there had been four wounded ones – but this was the first death among the 47 who had willingly offered themselves from the congregation. At the close Mendelssohn’s Funeral March was played. WW1_Casualties_by_Regiment_Letter_R.pdf www.midlothian.gov.uk/ – Affleck, Robert B, was the son of James Affleck and the family home was at Muirpark, Dalkeith, Midlothian. A Second Division Clerk on temporary duty, he passed his civil service exams in January 1913. Robert, a Private in 9th Battalion The Royal Scots, died on 8 May 1915 during the Second Battle of Ypres. He was 22 years old, and is commemorated on a special memorial at New Irish Farm Cemetery where his remains are believed to lie. The cemetery is in the town of Ieper, Belgium, and was enlarged after the armistice as part of a consolidation exercise. It is likely – although we cannot be sure – that Robert’s remains were transferred from a temporary cemetery in nearby St Jean, which was created in May 1915 to cope with the large number of casualties produced by the offensive. New Irish Farm commemorates 4,715 dead. THE SCOTTISH OFFICE, THOSE WHO FELL IN THE GREAT WAR, Compiled by Neil MacLennan www.scotland.gov.uk/Resource/0040/00408215.pdf | – |
| Affleck, Robert Bell, The son of Mr. J. Affleck, Muirpark, Dalkeith, was born in 1894, and educated at Dalkeith High School. Thereafter he spent four years at G.W.C. (1906-10), where he excelled in Mathematics. He was an enthusiastic School cricketer, and later Hon. Secy. of Dalkeith Club. In Sept. 1914 he gave up an appointment in the National Health Insurance Commission, and enlisted as a Pte. in the 9th R.S. In Feb. 1915 he went overseas to France. He was killed in Sanctuary Wood, Hooge, and interred there, May 8, 1915. | GWC |

He signed for the club from Tranent Juniors in 1915 as cover for Robert Mercer. In 1916 he was sent in a draft to France to reinforce 9th Royal Scots. In the early hours of 22 April 1917 he was wounded during a bloody assault on the village of Roeux. No trace of him could be found after the engagement.” http://www.mccraesbattaliontrust.org.uk/the-sporting-battalion/ Hearts FC list him as Sgt, as does Tom Purdie’s ‘Hearts at War’, 2014 Allan, John, Sergeant, 9th Royal Scots, was the son of James Allan, a Joiner, and Mary Allan, of 18 Springwell Place, Edinburgh.

| Angus, David Pte 325583 9th RS – David, resided with his parents, Mr. Robert Angus & Helen (nee Gourlay) Angus, 64 Cambusnethan Street, Wishaw; he was unmarried and a painter by trade. Private Angus enlisted at Wishaw on March 30th 1916; his attestation papers note him as 5’ 4” tall with a 34” chest, which expanded a further 3” on inhalation and weighed 133lbs. (just under 9 stones). He was part of 46th Brigade, 15th Scottish Division and posted missing on the 22nd March 1918. It is possible that David was wounded at the time of his capture as he is buried in a cemetery 40 miles south of Strasbourg in France, which may suggest that David died before reaching Germany where most of the POW’s were held. David died of pneumonia whilst a prisoner of war on 26th June 1918, aged 28. David left the following family behind, Robert 46, William 42, George 26, Jeannie 35 and Isabella 33.

| Baillie, John Orr John Orr Baillie was born in Bathgate, West Lothian, circa 1895. On the 1901 Census he was living with his parents William and Jessie Baillie at North Couston Farm, Bathgate, West Lothian. The 1914 edition of the Edinburgh & Leith Post Office Directory shows that his father, William Baillie, was a farmer at Granton Mains, West Granton Road. On the Granton War Memorial his regiment was shown as Lothian and Border Horse. This was a Yeomanry Regiment – a mounted equivalent of the Territorials. Anyone who joined this outfit had to provide his own horse – just the sort of thing that a farmer’s son might do. The entry in SDGW indicates that he joined Lothian & Border Horse in 1909. At some stage he transferred to 9th Battalion Royal Scots (an Edinburgh based Territorial Battalion which unlike other units of the Royal Scots, wore the kilt.) Granton History | |

| Bannatyne, Douglas Alexander THE ROYAL SCOTS (LOTHIAN REGIMENT), T.F. School House DOUGLAS ALEXANDER BANNATYNE was the third and youngest son of Mark Bannatyne, a partner of the firm of Bannatyne, Kirkwood & Co., Writers, of Glasgow, and of Kate Broadley his wife, of 15 Windsor Terrace West, Glasgow. He entered the School with a Scholarship in 1891 and left in 1896. In that year he was in the Running VIII, and came in second, after a close finish, in the Crick, for which a new record was established. His scholastic attainments were varied, and, besides the Tait Prize for Divinity, he won prizes for Latin, Greek, French, German and Mathematics. In 1896 he won a Major Exhibition, and went up as a Classical Scholar to Exeter College, Oxford. He obtained a First Class in Classical Moderations and also in the Final Classical School. Afterwards he graduated with distinction in Law, and was for several years Examiner in Conveyancing, at Glasgow University, where his great-grandfather, James Millar, had been Professor of Mathematics, and his great-great-grandfather, John Millar, had been Professor of Law. He became a partner in his father’s firm in January, 1905. He took a deep interest in the work of the Scottish Episcopal Church, especially in the east end of Glasgow, where he was largely instrumental in the building of several new mission churches. He had a great influence over lads and young boys, and, as a District Commissioner, did much to further the Boy Scouts movement, of which he was a warm upholder. He devoted many evenings to home-visiting in the east end. He was also interested in the School of Art and other public work in Glasgow. He spent many of his holidays abroad, and on one occasion travelled through a large part of Russia. He volunteered for service very soon after War broke out in 1914, and trained in the Inns of Court O.T.C. Gazetted to the Royal Scots in March, 1915, he served in Scotland, England, and Ireland, and in April, 1918, was sent to France. He joined his Battalion in the neighbourhood of Arras, and in July his Division, with other Highland Divisions, was sent to the Soissons-Rheims salient to help the French and American armies at a most critical point in the War. The Division relieved an American Division on July 22nd on the Chaudun plateau, and had a share in the brilliant success of clearing the Oulchy salient on the Ourcq in the last week of July. On July 28th it attacked the village, park and chateau of Buzancy, a position formidably organized by the enemy for defence. The heroism then displayed by the Scottish troops won such admiration amongst their French comrades that General Gassouin immediately raised on the field of battle a commemorative monument constructed with the stones of the ruined chateau of Buzancy, on which was carved a medallion representing a thistle surrounded by roses, with the words ICI FLEURIRA TOUJOURS LE GLORIEUX CHARDON D’ÉCOSSE PARMI LES ROSES DE FRANCE and, below, the dedication La 17ème division française à la 15ème division écossaise. On the following days the Division continued its advance towards the Aisne and the Vesle. Lieutenant Bannatyne was killed in action, nearer the enemy’s position than anyone else who fell on the same day, while leading his men to the attack, at Villemontoire, near Soissons, on August 1st, 1918. Age 40. The actual extent of ground gained in the fight of August 1st was small, but its consequences were far-reaching. Soissons was hurriedly evacuated by the enemy, whose only care was to retreat to the Vesle and the Aisne as rapidly as he could. General Mangin, in thanking the British Divisions for the part they had taken in the advance, referred, in particular, to the action of August 1st. “Dans la journée du ler août, vous avez enlevé, côte à côte avec vos camarades français, la crête qui domine toute la contrée entre l’Aisne et l’Ourcq et que ses défenseurs avaient l’ordre de tenir coûte que coûte. Ayant échoué dans sa tentative pour la reprendre avec ses dernières réserves, l’ennemi dut battre en retraite, poursuivi, bouscule pendant 12 kilometres.” His Colonel wrote :— “His death has been a great loss to the Battalion, Officers and men alike having the greatest admiration and respect for his gallantry and manly qualities. He fell leading an attack and as becomes an Officer.” The following extracts are taken from letters written by brother Officers :— “I found him not only a most capable and trustworthy Officer, but also a friend I esteemed and admired. He never seemed so happy as when he was doing two men’s work, and, no matter how strenuous or unpleasant the job might be, he tackled it with the same cheerful zeal. I never once heard him indulge in the soldier’s privilege of grumbling, and I count myself fortunate in having known and worked with such a perfect gentleman as your son.” “If there ever was a hero, your brother was one, and I can tell you that his pluck and endless gameness in spite of his years was greatly admired in the Battalion.” “I can hardly tell you of the place he occupied, not only in our estimation for his quiet, careful work, but in our affections for the ever-ready help he gave, whenever anyone asked him. His was a truly generous nature, always ready to give advice or assistance, however pressed with work he might be himself. His sacrifices were not all made in France, and many of his old friends are better men to-day because of his example.” The Rector of Exeter College, Oxford, wrote :— “He was the most brilliant and popular Scholar of our College, and intellectually, morally and socially of the best influence in our Society.” Many friends paid their tribute to his abilities, his earnest Christian purpose, his modesty and unselfishness, his delightfully human and attrac-tive personality. The Bishop of Aberdeen and Orkney wrote :— “He was one of the best of men I have ever met. I regarded him as a saint, without the least self-consciousness or ostentation. I thank God for all his good life and all the bracing influence which his life has exercised.” The Professor of Scottish History in the University of Glasgow said :— “His friends will not soon forget his beautiful and unselfish character, and I am sure that he will be long remembered in Glasgow by those for whom he worked so strenuously and devotedly. No more beautiful spirit than his has gone from us in all these years of mourning.” Source: Memorials Of Rugbeians Who Fell In The Great War Vol 6 [See also memorial booklet EBay] – Google translate: ‘Dans la journée du ler août, vous avez enlevé, côte à côte avec vos camarades français, la crête qui domine toute la contrée entre l’Aisne et l’Ourcq et que ses défenseurs avaient l’ordre de tenir coûte que coûte. Ayant échoué dans sa tentative pour la reprendre avec ses dernières réserves, l’ennemi dut battre en retraite, poursuivi, bouscule pendant 12 kilometres.’ On the 1st of August, you carried away, side by side with your French comrades, the ridge which dominates the whole country between the Aisne and the Ourcq, and which its defenders were ordered to hold at all costs. Having failed in its attempt to resume it with its last reserves, the enemy had to retreat, pursued, jostles for 12 kilometers. – Exeter College, Oxford, matriculated 1896, entered service Jan 15, Lt, died 1st Aug 18 age 40, killed near Soissons.

| Bell, Frank, Pte l/9th Royal Scots. 1918, November 3.- On the day previous, the British completed the capture of Valenciennes. The French captured Semuy and the south bank of the Canal des Ardennes from Semuy to Neuville. The Argonne Forest was completely cleared of the enemy. The Americans advanced rapidly in the Meuse sector. On the Sunday on which Frank Bell died the sailors of the German Fleet were mutinying. The Belgians advanced south of the Dutch frontier and captured Baasvelde and Steydinge. Between the Upper Aisne and the Meuse the Americans and French advanced rapidly on a front of thirty miles. On the day following, revolution began to spread in Germany, and a great British and French offensive began on a thirty-mile front from east of the Scheldt at Valenciennes to Guise on the Oise. Private Frank Bell was the son of Mr and Mrs R. Bell, Hawick. Before going out to France for the last time, in 1918, he was transferred to the l/9th Battalion of The Royal Scots. On the 29th October 1918 he was badly gassed. He was sent to No. 15 Clearing Station, where he died on the 3rd November. He was buried in the Military Cemetery at Etaples. Frank’s death was a terrible blow to his parents, taking place as it did so near the close of the war. His letters home were always bright and cheerful. He was 25 years of age, and was employed as a gamekeeper at Spitalhaugh when war broke out. | – |

Family tree by fionanicklin Family tree by Nicola Pearson [Marjorie Elizabeth Bennet Clark married George D Cowan 1914] – His father was George Bennet clark who died in 1929, who married Hannah Sophia in 1882 in the parish of St.Georges Edinburgh. He died in 1963 aged 76, and had a house and office at 45 moray place, according to the valuation rolls of 1930. This property had been owned by his parents. From Simon Baillie – TWBC became the sole partner in Messrs. J. and A. F. Adam. I think TWBC was second in command at the time of DC MacEwen’s death, A Coy, 10/4/17. TWBC was hospitalised as a result of the same action. On or around the 9th April TWBC mentions a Captain or Acting Major Lyndsey being in command. He then adds that he is next in line of seniority. At the time TWBC was commanding Officer of C Company. A couple of days later he was hospitalised then on to London for further treatment. He was released on 23rd and spent the night at the theatre with Moncrieff and thereafter to Moncrieff’s London residence. Next day Euston to Waverley. TWBC does say he “was all done in” on the 10th hence hospital care. He seems to have been well looked after bearing in mind he was not “in” on the assault. He seems to have been involved in the pre- organising of the assault and thereafter with HQ. Records of TW Bennet Clark Great War Forum ?

| BENTINCK, George Alexander. 2nd’Lieut. The Royal Scots – awarded M.C. ‘When the leading battalion was held up by machine gun fire, he brought up a gun into the front line and kept it in action under heavy shell fire. Later, on the same day, he was instrumental in bringing in about 24 wounded officers and men under heavy fire. Next day he again distinguished himself, and was wounded.’ Lieut. Bentinck joined the Highlanders, The Royal Scots, about five years ago, and at once started to take a very keen interest in all the activities of the battalion. Particularly was this the case in a side of the training which has now become of paramount importance, namely bayonet fighting. Lieut. Bentinck was second to none, and represented the Battalion in many a ‘gory’ contest. It was not long before he was promoted to Lance Corporal, and with this rank he mobilised on the historic August 4th. As vacancies occurred he became Corporal and Sergeant in turn, and on February 11th, 1915, was given a commission as a Platoon Commander. Lieut. Bentinck was well liked by all under him, who looked to him for help and guidance in the most trying situations. In December, 1915, the now all-important Machine Gun Corps was started, and a call was made for officers. Lieut. Bentinck at once offered himself for this service, and it was whilst serving with this corps that he did excellent service which gained him his great distinction.

Beveridge, T.D., Senior Chaplain 5th Division, attached 9th RS. Senior Chaplain of two separate Divisions. Home on short leave of absence, preaching in Princes St UFC, Port-Glasgow. The Scotsman 3 Jan 1916 Mentioned by Beatson, preaching Sun 11 July 15, one of the Old School ‘He appealed for recruits for a body, similar to King Arthur’s Knights of the Round Table, swearing ourselves to white chivalry and the rest. These splendid addresses I fear act on us spiritually like the passing brilliance of a star shell.’ – Acting chaplain 1st Refrewshire Volunteers and UFC Princers St [Port of Glasgow] Rev. William W. Beveridge 1903 Directory – In a minute dated 3rd December, 1878, we learn that the Rev. W. W. Beveridge, then a student at Glasgow University, and secretary of the University Football Club, desired the use of Hampden Park for the Inter-University matches between Glasgow and Cambridge and Oxford Universities respectively, and, after consideration, it was agreed to give the ground for the match on 23rd December with Oxford only. W. W. Beveridge, an Ayr Academy product, became, about this period, a great sprinter, and has been clocked to do even time—10 seconds—for the 100 yards. He is now the much-respected minister of a Port-Glasgow congregation, and has done good service during the war as an army chaplain.

| Brockie, John Kerr 1918—August 5. ALEXANDER BROCKIE, Maxwelltown, Dumfries, had four sons in the Great War. These were James, a private in the Royal Scots; Alexander, also in the Royal Scots; William, in the Black Watch, attached to the Royal Flying Corps; and Private JOHN KERR BROCKIE, in the Royal Scots. The eldest brother, James, was the first to give his life, in November 1917; the next two brothers were wounded; and John, the youngest of all, was called upon, like the eldest, to die for his country. John Brockie enlisted in the early days of the war, and after receiving training, was drafted to France. Some time later he was discharged, and went to Maxwelltown, to reside with his father, where he was employed in Rosefield Mills. He was eventually recalled to the Colours, and had been fighting in France for some time previous to his being fatally wounded. This happened on the 1st of August 1918, while in action, and on the 5th of August he passed away, at the age of 21 years. He and his brothers were members of a large clan of Brockies belonging to Peebles, who did not spare themselves, either in wounds or in life itself, for the sake of their country. | – |

| Brown, Joseph, Pte 1918, August 1. MRS JOSEPH BROWN, Polton Cottages, Polton, received official intimation that her hushand, Private JOSEPH BROWN, Royal Scots, had been killed in action in France on 1st August 1918. Private Brown, who was 34 years of age, previous to enlisting in the 2/8th Royal Scots, in September 1914, was employed in March Street Mills, Peebles. He went out to France in February 1917. He was wounded and invalided home, but returned to the front in the early summer of 1918. He was survived by his wife and three boys, aged 9, 8, and 6 years at the time of their father’s death. He was the third son of Andrew Brown, 13a Rosetta Road, Peebles. Other three brothers were on service—Andrew, a private in the 1/8th Royal Scots; James, a private in the Royal Scots; and Alexander, a private in the Egyptian Camel Corps. The Chaplain of the 9th Royal Scots wrote Mrs Brown as follows: “Your husband was killed on the 1st August in an attack which cost this Battalion many casualties, for all of them played a very gallant part that day. We all lament his death very much. I wish to assure you of the deep sympathy of all his comrades in the Battalion; we feel very much for you and your little ones in your loneliness and grief. I trust that God Himself will sustain you; and enable you to bear up under this burden of sorrow. May the words of our Saviour bring some comfort and strength to your heart—’I am the resurrection and the life. He that believeth in Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live.’ And may you be upheld, for your own sake and the sake of your little ones, with the hope of meeting your husband again in the life beyond, where no sore parting shall come.” | – |

Mrs Brown, Miller Street, Innerleithen, received official intimation that her husband, Lance-Corporal Thomas Brown, Royal Scots, died of wounds on Monday, 6th August, 1917. He was 23 years of age, and was mobilised as a Territorial at the outbreak of hostilities. He was in the Gretna Disaster, and among other injuries lost the sight of an eye (the right). He left for France in January, and was slightly wounded in April. He was employed as a mechanical engineer in Carberry Pit, Musselburgh. Interred in Mendingham British Cemetery on August 5. The Germans regained a footing in Hollebeke, but were driven out that day and the next. | – |

| Brown, Tom W., Pte (Traquair) 6th December 1916. Killed in action on 6th December, 1916, Private T. W. Brown, Royal Scots, beloved son of Mr and Mrs E. Brown, Traquair. Blessed are the pure in heart. A feeling of deep regret and sorrow was expressed all over the parish of Traquair when it became known that Mr Edward Brown, Kirkhouse, had received the sad news that his second son, Tom, had been killed in France on the 6th December, 1916. No young man in the district was more popular or more highly respected. Before enlisting in the Royal Scots, his duties brought him into close contact with very many of the parish, as for nine years he had been rural postman, his round including such widely separated places as Cardrona and Glenlude. He had a cheery word for everyone, and an obligation had only to be asked to be conferred. He could be freed from his duties only after the Christmas postal pressure of the year, so that less than 12 months’ service was all that he was privileged to give to his country’s cause. He received his military training in one of the Border towns, and on his few visits home, many remarked on his fine soldierly bearing. He had been in France for nine months. On 2nd December he wrote that another Traquair lad, Private Hugh Wilson, of the same regiment, had been killed. And before the letter was received, he himself had met with a similar fate from the bursting of a shell. 12 have now been killed from Traquair. From D. C. McEwen, Second-Lieutenant — The death of your son is a great loss to the company, and the battalion, as he was a good soldier and an exceedingly fine fellow, and his loss is deeply regretted by us all. I was his platoon commander, and personally deeply regret his loss. From a chum in France — Tom was a fine lad in every way, generous, cheery, and kind-hearted. I may say that he was known as such, not only by his, but by all who knew him. From Mr Easton, Postmaster, Innerleithen— What a loss he will be here. I was looking forward to the time when he would be back to duty. He was always cheery and obliging, and ready to do his utmost in the performance of his duties, without a grumble even when the weather was at its worst. From Mr McIntosh, Traquair, his school teacher — We shall long remember Tom’s happy and cheery way, and his unfailing obliging spirit. | – |

| Bruce, Robert, Pte 1918, April 12.—There was strong enemy pressure on this day (Friday), especially at Bailleul and Wulverghem. The enemy penetrated Neuve Eglise and Messines. In Apremonet Forest the Americans and French repulsed continued attacks. 110 German Divisions were engaged until now. The British withdrew from Messines Ridge. Private Robert Bruce was born in 1892, in Stirling, his father being Mr H. E. Bruce, Cambuskenneth Abbey there. He served his apprenticeship as a gardener with Mr Edmond Pullar, Bridge of Allan, and before enlisting he was with the late Mrs Woddrop, Garvald House, Dolphinton. In June 1915 he joined the 9th Royal Scots, and after being trained at Peebles and then at Selkirk, he went to France, early in January 1916, with the “Dandy Ninth.” He went through the Somme in July onwards, and was at the taking of Beaumont Hamel in November. He was also through the Arras battle of April 1917. He took septic poisoning in the knee in May of that year, and was in hospital for quite a long spell in France and in England. On his recovery he was transferred to the 2nd Battalion of the Royal Scots, and was sent to France in December. He was posted missing on 12th April 1918, amidst that ever memorable British stand which defeated the last grim German effort. Private Bruce had not been very long resident at Garvald before his soldier days, but he had made some firm friends, and had gained the esteem of all who knew him. These facts speak for themselves. He was quiet, but very true. He was a member of Kirkurd United Free Church, and on more than one occasion during the months of suspense when he was missing. Rev. D. C. Wiseman, M.A., made appreciative reference to him; expressing the hope that he would return with the prisoners and also the congregation’s sympathy with his parents in Stirling. But the prisoners returned, and Robert Bruce was not amongst them. Doubtless he died on 12th April — “all his wounds in front”—giving his quiet, strong, and promising life for the country and the cause that were dear to him. ” He was one of the best of sons, and if he got his father and mother right he was contented—but only so. And if he had been spared he would have been an equally devoted husband. One in Scotland was waiting for his ‘leave’ to be married when the storm of March broke out—and then the leave stopped—and the suspense began, and word came that he was missing. And thus war’s tragedy works out and makes desolation, and there are those left that mourn.” | – |

| Bryden, John L/Cpl Home on Furlough. During the past week many Armadale warriors have been home for a well-deserved rest from the fighting line. L/Cpl John Bryden, son of Mr Jas. A. Bryden, for many years a draper in Armadale with shops in west Main Street and South Street, returned last week after a severe year’s fighting in France where he has been twice badly wounded on the head. A year ago he was a conspicuous figure at Woodend Red Cross social meeting in his kilt, and curiously enough he was able to attend the same function on Friday. He was twice hit in the head and was laid out for a considerable time before he was picked up unconscious with a bullet in his head, which has been successfully extricated, but he has been certified unfit for other than home service. He returned to his home in Edinburgh on Tuesday to report himself, and expects to be sent to Dundee. Linlithgowshire Gazette 26.11.15 | – |

| Burgess, James Reginald Homes, son of James and Lucy Burgess of Bowes Road, New Southgate, London was born on 7 August 1893 and joined the Commission as a 2nd Class Clerk on 15 July 1912 with a salary of £100. James served as a Corporal with D Company, 9th Battalion The Royal Scots, and was 21 when he died on 10 April 1915. He is interred in Boulogne Eastern Cemetery. Boulogne was one of the three base ports most extensively used by the armies on the Western Front, and was also one of the main hospital areas. The dead from the hospitals were buried in the Eastern Cemetery, suggesting that James was not killed outright while in action, but succumbed to his wounds at a later date.

| Bush, Victor George Anderson, The youngest son of the late Admiral Bush, was born at Bangkok, Siam, in 1893. He was a pupil at G.W.C. 1907-11, gained the Convener’s Medal for Drawing and played for the 2nd XV. On the outbreak of war, he enlisted in 9th R.S. In a few weeks he obtained a commission in the H.L.I. and served with that regiment in France until 1916. Transferred to the R.F.C., he was made Fighting Instructor at the Central Flying School, Wiltshire, and was soon afterwards promoted to be Captain. Later he was sent to Ayr, and it was while flying there on Feb. 8, 1918, that he was killed. On the outbreak of war, he enlisted in the 9th Royal Scots. In a few weeks he obtained a commission in the Highland Light Infantry and served with that regiment in France until 1916. He transferred to the Royal Flying Corps, and was made Fighting Instructor at the Central Flying School, Wiltshire. He was soon afterwards promoted to Captain. Later he was sent to Ayr to train inexperienced pilots, and it was while flying there, during an exercise on 8th February 1918, that he was killed in a flying accident at the age of 25. St Michaels – Capt V G A Bush, a native of Edinburgh aged 25, was serving at No 1 School of Air Fighting (1 S of AF) RFC at Ayr, when he was killed in an accident while flying Sopwith Camel B5565 on 8 February 1918. The aeroplane broke up in the air and crashed. Victor was a 2nd Lieutenant in the 10/11th Battalion, Highland Light Infantry, before transfering to the RFC and reaching the rank of Captain. The aircraft came down at Kincaidston Farm after the wing broke off. Galashiels War Memorial. His father is listed as Admiral John Bush of Bangkok. He was a British merchant Captain who was employed by the Thai King to run the port of Bangkok, manage the ship repair facilities (the docks he founded still existed) and also arrange and captain the Kings voyages. He was a prominent ex-pat in Bangkok and hosted Ann Leonowens (the King and I story) when she arrived in Bangkok. His first wife, from the UK, died in Bangkok so a he married a local lady; Meh Plien. He then had two children with Meh; Victoria and Victor. So Victor was half Thai – perhaps the only one in the RFC. He joined the Royal Scots (9th Btn) and served as a Private before being commissioned in the HLI. He attended George Watsons College in Edinburgh and played Rugby in the 2nd XV and won a prize for Drawing. His death certificate states that he suffered multiple injuries in the crash, including severe head injuries and he died instantly. Ball House, Pewsey, Wilts – MIC GWF courtesy BullerTurner, gmac101, per ardua…, Dolphin, Hambo, River97 – John Bush did exist; an English merchant seaman who arrived in Bangkok in 1857 with his wife and was encouraged by the British Consul to apply for the position of Bangkok Harbour Master. He served in this role until the late 1800’s when one of his sons took over. He also ran the Bangkok Dry Docks and Captained the King of Thailand’s ship when he made longer voyages. He had 4 children with his wife from England but his first wife Elizabeth (nee Lawson) died in 1866. John Bush then married Mae Plian and in the early 1890’s had two further children Victor and Victoria. John Bush died in the early 1900’s and sometime shortly after Victor came to the UK, presumably to study and the 1911 census finds him at a boarding school in Edinburgh. Victor studied at George Watsons College in Edinburgh where he won prizes for drawing and played rugby in the 2nd fifteen he finished in 1911 and started a university course. However his studies were interrupted by the announcement of war and on the 29th of August 1914 he enlisted in the 9th Battalion of the Royal Scots but along with other OTC Cadets was quickly commissioned and joined the 10th Battalion of the Highland Light Infantry in November 1914 as a 2nd Lieutenant. He arrived in France on the 8th of August 1915. He presumably fought with the HLI at Loos on the 25th of September 1915 where they suffered considerable losses. Perhaps as a result of this he applied and was accepted into the RFC qualifying as an observer in early 1916 and as a pilot by August. By the 10th of August he was back in France serving with 1st Squadron, flying Morane Parasol’s and later Nieuport Scouts. He got some home leave in December and married Jean McLeod, he gave her family address when he joined up so he must have known her for some time. They married in St Davids Church, Viewforth in Edinburgh on the 16th of December. His sister Victoria, now in the UK, was one of the witnesses. On his return to France he was involved in bringing down at least one enemy plane a Roland C on the 4th of March 1917. Shortly afterwards he returned to the UK to serve as a flying instructor He served at a number of flying schools and the 26th Reserve Squadron before he was posted in late.. August 1917 to the No.1 School of Aerial Fighting at Turnberry near Ayr. During this period he was Gazetted a Captain. It appears he lived in Ayr at 5a Miller Street with his wife. He died from head injuries he received in a crash on the 8th of February. One of the wings of the Sopwith Camel he was flying failed and as a result he was unable to control the aircraft and it crashed on the outskirts of Ayr at a place called Kincaidston farm (now a housing estate). He was buried in Edinburgh in Merchiston Cemetry. As well as the Galashiels War Memorial he is remembered on the memorial at Gorgie in Edinburgh and on the memorial in St Michaels Church in Edinburgh. Why is he remembered in Galashiels? – None of the official records finds him in Galashiels but an article in the “Southern Reporter” in September 1917 recording his promotion to Captain notes that he was “formerly of Galashiels”. In addition according to the 1911 census his wife’s younger brother was born in Galashiels. So he and his wife had some connection to the town and thus a place on the War Memorial. Captain V G A Bush is an interesting person, possibly the only British Officer with Thai Origins? Does anybody know of any others His sister went on to serve in the WRAF and married an American serviceman in Montrose in July 1918 and evidently emigrated to the United States. The last record I have found of his wife is from 1920 when she was living in Pewsey Wiltshire when she applied for her late husband’s medals But what of the connection to the King and I? When Anna Leonowens, the “I” in the “King and I” first arrived in Bangkok she was met by John Bush, then known as a Captain and stayed at his house until the King arranged accommodation for her.

| Cadell, F.C.B (1883-1937) ‘Cadell was the only Colourist to fight in the war. After the declaration of war in 1914, he immediately volunteered but was pronounced unfit. Determined, he gave up his pipe and worked on a farm at Kirkconnell in Dumfries and Galloway until he passed the necessary medical tests and, in 1915, he joined the 9th Battalion, The Royal Scots, and later was commissioned as a 2nd Lieutenant in the 5th battalion of the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders. He served on the French front until he was decommissioned in 1919. He was wounded twice and was awarded the General Service and Victory medals.’ https://www.nationalgalleries.org/collection/fcb-cadell/cadells-drawings Francis Campbell Boileau Cadell, known to his friends as Bunty WO 372/3/230206 Lance Corporal 5264 ‘For much of WWI Cadell served as a private soldier in the Royal Scots, 9 Battalion and from the end of 1915 he endured the horrors of the French trenches. In 1918 he was transferred to the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders as a Second Lieutenant where his army experience was less uncomfortable than previously’ http://www.sothebys.com/en/auctions/ecatalogue/2007/scottish-pictures-edinburgh-assembly-rooms-l07130/lot.113.html It is frequently repeated that he was in 9th A&S Highrs. The gazette places him in 5th A&S Highrs, 22 Dec 1921 https://www.thegazette.co.uk/London/issue/32557/supplement/10480/data.pdf Cadell served for much of the war as a pte in 9th RS. His first application was rejected on health grounds and he worked hard to get fit for a second medical, joining in 1915, at the end of the year he was in the trenches. ‘Resisting all exhortations from friends and superior officers to apply for a commission.’ Eventually he succumbed and transferred to 8th A&S Highers as 2nd Lt at the beginning of 1918. As a pte ‘there could not have been many of his fellow soldiers who had their tailor make up a private’s uniform in quality cloth to replace the scratchy standard issue.’ Sketches from army life sold profitably for the benefit of the Red Cross, and then reproduced in 1916 as a book, Jack and Tommy, by London publisher Grant Richards. Cadell spent his leave in Edinburgh, giving parties at 130 George St, sometimes Peploe would appear. Discharged from the army in 1919. Addresses: Munich 1906-08, studio at 130 George St ~1909, 6 Ainslie Place ~1919, 30 Regent Terrace >1928, Warriston Crescent 1935. Died 1937. | – |

Buried there. He was awarded thir Military Cross [London Gazette. 18 July. 1917], “For commanding his company with great skill and dash, When the advance was temporarily held up, he executed a flank attack. which enabled the advance to proceed. He showed great coolness and gallantry under heavy shell and machine-gun fire.” His Chaplain wrote : “Information has reached us to-day that your son has been awarded the Military Cross for his courage and good work “in the operations which began on 9 April. The battalion has learned with great satisfaction of the award of an houour he had so thoroughly merited, their satisfaction being dimmed only by the thought that the award did not come in time for him to receive the congratulations of his comrades before another action set the seal of life’s sacrifice upon his devotion. To yourselves, I am sure, it will be a source of satisfaction amid the sadness of your loss that his work has been so recognized.” Roll of Honour, Ruvigny, Vol III – Campbell, J.H. Lt | TNA |

I have lots of lovely photographs of him in his uniform along with his chums, as you would say in those days. So he went to France and played the pipes, and I even fairly recently contacted a very, very old soldier from the same regiment and he could actually remember marching to the pipes as the drafts of men marched up and down behind the lines, and Angus would have been one of the pipers at that time. But Angus became ill and was sent back home and then he was called back again when the war was getting even more difficult and eventually he was wounded and came out of the war at the end of it. And he did not have a good life after that, his health suffered a lot, he became relatively disabled, although he could still play the pipes and did so for quite a long time. Whereas Kenneth [his brother] had, if you like, a relatively good war, Angus had a relatively bad war and that was the way things were. But I have Angus’s pipes and I still play them.’ Prof Roderick Cannon regarding his uncle, Angus Cannon The Piping Centre interview | – |
