Ezzi, Emilie 44129 30th August 1918 On Saturday, Mr and Mrs Ezzi, Whitburn Road, Bathgate, was officially informed that their son, Private Emile Ezzi, had been killed in action in France on 1st August. Writing to Mrs Ezzie, under date August 20th Chaplain A. Robertson, Royal Scots, says: – ‘Dear Mrs Ezzi, I am sorry to have to convey to you the sad news of the death in action of your son, Pte E. Ezzi. I have been prevented from writing to you so promptly as I would have done because of the large list of casualties. His Battalion was engaged in the very heavy fighting in the south, and suffered many casualties there. Along with many others, your son was killed by heavy shell in an attack made by us on 1st August near Buzancy Village, south of Soissons. He died the death of a brave man, as they all played a gallant part that day. His comrades in the Battalion all extend to you their deepest sympathy with you in your hour of sorrow. We trust that you and the other members of your household will be strengthened to endure patiently this trial, and that you may be comforted by God himself. Who alone can turn this time of distress into a period of blessing hereafter. I should mention that the dead were buried together in a corner of the battlefield, and the place was marked by a cross.’ Private Ezzi was in his 22nd year. He joined the H.L.I. on 23rd October 1917, on 30th March this year he was drafted to France, and transferred to the Royal Scots. Another son of Mr and Mrs Ezzi is in training with the H.L.I. in Scotland. West Lothian Courier, coutesy Alf McM, using Calder, Jackie, ‘The Royal Scots 1860-1916’, by permission. GWF topic 236321

Farrimond, Arthur, Pte, 12th Platoon, ‘C’ Coy, No.2774 Arthur Farrimond Royal Scots Arthur Farrimond was born on Sept 30th 1893 to James and Margaret Farrimond at 9 Hill Street, Hindley, Lancs. He won his first race at the age of seventeen at the Westhoughton town sports in 1910. He joined the Bolton club then Leigh Harriers in 1911. In February 1914 he became a medal winner in the Junior East-Lancashire cross country championships. When war broke out he was a commercial traveller for Messrs. J.Smith & Co., wine & spirit merchants. He enlisted in the 9th Royal Scots on November llth 1914. While serving in France he won the French medallion in a l½ mile race for his regiment. He reached the front line in January 1915 where he was wounded in the knee; he was again wounded in the stomach in August 1916 as a result of a bayonet charge, and made a full recovery while in Ward 16 of the Merry Flatts Hospital, Govan, Glasgow. In March 1915 one of his letters home was published in the local newspaper, speaking of his ordeal in the trenches and also saying he had made up his mind to try and get to Berlin in 1916 for the Olympic Games, but unknown to him, there would be no 1916 games and he would not resume his training until 1919, too late even for the 1920 games. Arthur married Emily Birch in 1922 and also regained his running fitness after the war and was becoming well known as a distance runner. He still won one mile races at Abergele and Whitehaven. He ran 2nd in the 1923 and 1924 Manchester marathons, and it was from these races that he was selected to run for Britain in the 1924 Paris Olympics. Arthur was the second Britain to finish in Paris and had to suffer the last few miles with a twist of his ankle, which he received trying to avoid a civilian who would insist on running alongside him. There were 58 entrants representing other world countries in the race and it was no small achievement to finish seventeenth in an Olympic marathon. Arthur returned home to his job as an electrician in the employment of the Wigan Coal and Iron Company. He continued to run in races for the next fifty years with the club. In later years Arthur ran a newsagents shop at Westhoughton. Arthur died in November 1978 aged 85 years old, his ashes being in the family grave at Hindley cemetery. His wife Emily died in 1984 aged ninety. They had no children. [See website for more information] http://www.boltonrevisited.org.uk/p-arthur-farrimond.html

He received his first commission on 28th July, 1874, as a Sub-Lieutenant in the 17th Aberdeenshire Rifle Volunteer Corps (Old Deer), afterwards consolidated with others to form the 3rd Aberdeenshire Rifle Volunteer Battalion (The Buchan Rifles). This subsequently became the old Volunteer Battalion (The Buchan) Gordon Highlanders. He was promoted Captain 1880, and Hon. Major in 1889, receiving the Volunteer Decoration in 1894. On the 21st September, 1914, Lieutenant- Colonel Ferguson was appointed to command the 2/9th Royal Scots, and in May 1915, owing to a severe accident, he was transferred to command the 3/9th (Highlanders) Royal Scots. This distinguished officer has spent almost a lifetime in the neighbourhood of Scottish soldiers, and by his untiring energy and zeal has done much to foster the military spirit in Volunteer circlea. He is also the author of many books on military subjects. Lieutenants Colonel James Ferguson was born in 1857, and is theeldest son ofWilliam Ferguson ofKinmundy. He is a DL andmember of the TerritorialAssociation of theCounty of Aberdeen. He became MA in1876, and a member of the Scots Bar in 1879. We wish him many more years of usefulness and activity in the profession he has so much at heart. The Leather Sporran, Vol 1, No 1, 1st Sept 1916 At the end of February 1915 Ferguson was supervising 2/9th training on the Braid Hills when his horse slipped on the ice and he broke his leg. Removed to Craigleith Hospital, did not return to duty until 14th June 15. The Leather Sporran, Vol 1, No 1, 1st Sept 1916 It was with feelings of sincere regret that we heard the news that Colonel James Ferguson, V.D. has died of pleurisy. It is a loss to all in the Battalion, that will be, I think, even more deeply felt in succeeding years, for the founder of the Battalion is gone and the Colonel of all three lines. His mind during the last days of his life dwelt largely on the Battalions, and the doings of all the lines gave him the keenest interest. I think the special memories that most of us will have of him will be either of a field day (for we knew if he commanded us we would be pretty sure to do well – his tactics were always of a high order), or before a route march, when we saw him dressed in his kilt ready and fit for the march as the strongest recruit in the ranks, and heard his invariable word of command ‘Highlanders, attention: advance in column of route from the right. A Company leading.’ He was the epitome of the enthusiastic and successful Territorial Colonel of the old school, and the Battalion have lost their keenest helper and their best friend. The Leather Sporran, Vol 1, No 4, 1st June 1917 –   [Photos not certain, source Ferguson] – [further info]…Mr Ferguson died on 11th September 1904, age 80. The present proprietor, James Ferguson, eldest son of the preceding, married in 1885 Georgina Anne, eldest dau of Capt John de Courcy Andrew Agnew RN of dacre Lodge, Cumberland, and granddaughter of Sir Andrew Agnew of Lochnaw, and has one surviving son, James, born 1886. A second son, John de Courcy Agnew born 1887 died in Feb 1904. Mr Ferguson, who was called to the Scottish Bar in 1879, was senior Advocate-Depute from 1896-1898. He is KC and has held in turn the Sheriffship of Argyll and of Inverness Elgin and Nairn, now Sheriff of Forfarshire. He is the author of several works on the law relating to railways…. [info]. Mr Ferguson was for many years an officer of the 3rd (Buchan) VB GH and in 1900 raised and was first commanding officer of the 9th VB (Highlanders) RS – the Highland Volunteer Battalion of Edinburgh. … Although the Kinmundy estates are not now so extensive as formerly, they still extend to upwards of 4000 acres, and embrace within Old Deer parish the lands of Coynach and Millbreck, Shannas, Durie, Clola, Millhill, Over-Kinmundy, Kinknockie, Smallburn and Pettymarcus.

Ferguson, James, Junior, Maj 22.7.16 1886-1916 Father: Advocate Admitted to Faculty July 1913. Educ. Edinburgh Academy, Charterhouse, Edinburgh University Despite being the son of James Ferguson KC, no information was returned to the Faculty regarding Ferguson‟s death, no entry can be found in the Scots Law Times, and no trace can be found of him in the 1911 Census. What we know is that he was educated at Edinburgh Academy and Charterhouse, took his arts and law degrees at Edinburgh University between 1904 and 1913; and entered Faculty in July 1913. He was the son of James Ferguson of Kinmundy KC, and heir to the estate of Kinmundy. He was born at 41 Manor Place, Edinburgh in February 1886. With his father such a vigorous advocate for recruitment, it was perhaps inevitable that Ferguson would join the regiment his father helped to found, the 9th Royal Scots. In 1904 he was a Second Lieutenant; by September 1915 he had been promoted Major. Based at 89 East Claremont Street, the battalion landed at Le Havre in February 1915, and at the time of his death was fighting with the 81st Brigade in the 51st (Highland) Division. Ferguson was mentioned in Despatches in January 1916, and in July 1916 his battalion were in trenches ready to attack High Wood as part of the Somme offensive. Ferguson was killed the day before the major offensive on 23rd July 1916. 9th Royal Scots had endured a lengthy tour of duty at Arras up to the beginning of July, and were then moved to Mametz Wood on the Somme. By the 21st of July they had taken over the front line in the vicinity of Bazentin-le-Grand wood, within sight of High Wood. The intended onslaught was due to be carried out by B Company, commanded by Major Ferguson. However, terrific machine gun fire met the Royal Scots as soon as they were free of their trenches, and all the officers were hit; only a handful of men returned from the fatal enterprise. He is commemorated on the Thiepval Memorial on the Somme, on the Charterhouse School Memorial, as well as the Faculty Memorial. http://www.advocates.org.uk/media/2172/warmemorialwordpdf3.pdf 
Ferguson, James, Senior, Col 26.4.17 1857-1917 Father: Director of Great North of Scotland Railway Company Educ. Birkenhead, Craigmount, Edinburgh University. Admitted to faculty July 1879 Ferguson and his son, also James, are the only father and son commemorated on the Faculty war memorial. Ferguson Senior did not die on active service, and therefore is not mentioned in the Commonwealth War Graves Commission‟s records, although he is mentioned in the Edinburgh University Roll of the Fallen. He is the oldest Advocate on the war memorial. Born at Craigmount, Edinburgh in 1857, his father was William Ferguson of Kinmundy, Aberdeenshire, a director of the Great North of Scotland Railway Company. The Fergusons had bought Kinmundy in 1723; the Ferguson papers were removed from the house and deposited in the Aberdeen University archives as late as 1982. One of his forebears had served as a Major General at the Battle of Blenheim. Educated in Birkenhead, Liverpool, and at the conveniently located Craigmount School, Edinburgh, his further education was at Edinburgh University, from which he graduated in arts and law in 1875/1876, and was admitted to Faculty in 1879. He took silk in 1902 and with James Clark was the only King‟s Counsel on the memorial. He was appointed Sheriff of Argyll, then Inverness, and finally Forfarshire; he was assistant Advocate Depute in 1892 and Advocate Depute from 1896 to 1898. In 1885 he married Georgina Agnew; they had two sons, one of whom died while a pupil at the Edinburgh Academy, the other features next in this publication. Ferguson took a special interest in railway law, and published an edition of Deas on Railways that was a standard text in his time. Politically, he was a staunch Conservative, and in 1882 was appointed honorary secretary of the National Union of Conservative Associations. He also wrote well known treatises on the Law of Roads, and the Law of Water in Scotland. He also had an interest in historical matters, perhaps inspired by his own interesting forebears, and edited a collection of papers regarding the Scots Brigade in the Netherlands. Like many of the men on the memorial, he was keen on territorial soldiering and in 1900, having served in his local volunteer battalion of the Gordon Highlanders (“The Buchan Rifles”), he helped to raise the 9th Royal Scots – at that time known as the Highlander‟s Battalion, The Queens Rifle Volunteer Brigade, Royal Scots. In time it became known as “The Dandy Ninth”. He was their first Commanding Officer during the Boer War up to 1904; during the First World War as Colonel in command of the reserve battalion of 9th Royal Scots, he helped to swell the ranks of the reserves, and was responsible for sending to France some 2,000 officers and men. However his foreign service consisted of one week at the front in 1916; although under fire, he did not take part in any action. The Scotsman reported that he possessed a “somewhat stiff and frigid exterior” and that he had “some of the foibles supposed to be characteristic of the Aberdeenshire Laird” – whatever that might mean. However, behind the veil of his unprepossessing manner there lay concealed an abundance of talent and common sense, as well as “a singularly kind heart.” Ferguson died at his home, 10 Wemyss Place, Edinburgh, in April 1917 of “malignant neoplasm of the lung.” As his younger son had died while a schoolboy at the Edinburgh Academy, and his only surviving son (James Ferguson, Junior) had been killed in action in July of the previous year, this marked the last in a direct line of Fergusons of Kinmundy that stretched back to the 1650‟s. http://www.advocates.org.uk/media/2172/warmemorialwordpdf3.pdf

He was a member of the golf and tennis clubs, in both of which, like his elder brother T.L. Ferguson, he played a good game. On leaving School he entered Edinburgh Savings Bank. At the outbreak of war he joined the Edinburgh University OTC and received a commission in the RS in July 1915. While in this country he was appointed to the responsible position of signalling officer. Transferred to another battalion of his regiment he was sent to France in July 1916, and was slightly wounded in the battle of the Somme. He was home on short leave in January of this year and on returning to the front was sent to a school of instruction with a view to further promotion. On 9th April of this year he fell in action in the fighting at Arras while leading his company. He was killed instantaneously by machine-gun fire, just at the wire of the German front trench. A fine attractive young man, he won golden opinions as a soldier: “a most promising young officer’” “a very gallant officer, beloved by officers and men” – so he is described by two Colonels under whom he had served, and the junior officers speak just as highly of him. “A better lad never joined our battalion” is the verdict of his Major, “and he was a universal favourite and a fine soldier”; while another officer states that, “he was, without doubt, one of the best officers we had.” He was twenty-one years of age, and was buried at the same time as his old schoolmate, Hamish Adams, in the British military cemery at Roclincourt.    Percy Ferguson 1917

Robert Wood Forsyth, a native of Eddlestone, Peebleshire, was born in 1893.
He was subsequently decorated for his bravery at Passchendaele on 20 September 1917, when the 1/9th Battalion, Royal Scots launched a successful attack against the “Pheasant Farm” feature. Our supporting barrage having ceased at 5.40 a.m., two companies of the Battalion advanced against the enemy’s concreted defences and ‘with fine dash rushed the fortifications before the Germans had time to make their fire effective’ – but not in fact before one company had come under ‘ravaging machine-gun fire’. The regimental history also refers to the gallant support work of the remaining two companies who followed up the attack, one party killing 15 of the enemy in a brisk exchange near “Flora Cot”.
Forsyth, who was discharged as a Corporal at Ripon in June 1919, was only entitled to the British War & Victory Medals, not having gone to France before 1916 (his MIC refers).
Including the recipient’s Divisional “Gallantry on Active Service” card, for deeds ‘displayed by him on 20 September 1917’, signed by the Major-General Commanding, a wartime newspaper cutting listing the announcement of the award of his M.M., and two letters from the Infantry Record Office, Hamilton, regarding the forwarding of his decoration, dated in June 1919; his Protection and Identity Certificate, dated at North Camp, Ripon 18 June 1919; a wartime portrait photograph, and Defence Medal communication from the City Chamberlain’s Office, Edinburgh, dated 1 May 1946 Address June 1919: 20 Station Rd, Eddleston, Peebleshire.

Fraser, John, Pte Enlisted 9th RS, transferred King’s Own Scottish Borderers 1918, April II.—On this Thursday fighting was general along the whole battle-front. The British were forced back beyond Ploegsteert and Steenwercke to the south of Neuve Eglise and Bailleul. At Hollebeeke and Messines the German attacks were repulsed. The enemy captured Merville. Strong local attacks were repulsed south of Arras. This was the third day of the battle of the Lys, which began on April 9. Private John FRASER was a native of West Linton, where he was employed with Mr David Paterson, grocer, Main Street there. He enlisted in Edinburgh during 1916, into the 9th (Highland) Battalion Royal Scots, but on being sent to France he was transferred to the 1st Battalion King’s Own Scottish Borderers. He was repeatedly in action, but was never wounded. He was lying with his Battalion in front of Ypres during the great British retreat of March 1918, and went missing on 11th April of that year. This young lad was much respected and esteemed in and about West Linton. He was a member of the Parish Church and a Guildsman. Gunn, Dr., ‘The Book of Remembrance for Tweeddale’, Vol. III, 1923

During World War 1 he re-enlisted in the Army and served with the Scots Guards before being taken prisoner. He was freed at the end of the War and was a member of the World Championship winning Band at Cowal Games in 1919. Pipe Major Gates was to introduce the Band to a much wider audience by competing as far afield as the Isle of Man and recording a radio broadcast for the BBC in 1937, which received great acclaim from listeners around the world. He remained in charge until midway through the Second World War, when he retired from the Police Service. He continued for many years to teach piping in Edinburgh schools and was also to become one of the best known faces in the Pipe Band world, when a photograph taken of him in 1939 at Hampden Park, Glasgow was reproduced on thousands of Scottish souvenirs!’ RSPBA in conjunction with Stewart Gardiner who communicated with Gates’ daughter – Gates, Hance T.R.; Tpr H’hold Bn 3331; S.Gds 17310; VM&BWM MIC Household Battalion, formed 1.9.16 from reserve of Household Cavalry, landed France 9.11.16 – Gates, Hance T.R.

He joined the staff of the College as an English master, was at first junior officer in the OTC, and in 1914 became OC with the rank of Captain. His work with the corps, his electrifying energy, his broad and accurate knowledge, and his severe but not overmastering sense of discipline, will show its effects for many a year. “He transferred to the Royal Scots in June 1915, did excellent work as an instructor, and next year went to France, where he was attached to the Gloucester Regiment a fighting regiment in a fighting division, as he was proud to call it. His great talent could not remain hidden, he was promoted Major, and, in a brilliant affair, led his battalion against the redoubtable Prussian Guard, driving them from a village whose name is now a household word. “A fine career was opening before him, when he and all the Headquarters’ Staff, to which he had become attached, were destroyed by a German mine.” – Capt Robert Finlay Gerrard, from George Watson’s Boys’ College Contingent, Junior Division, Officers Training Corps, to be Capt (temp), 4 RS dated 9.7.15, LG 8.7.15
Gerrard, Robert Finlay, Was a member of the English Staff of G.W.C., which he joined in 1913. He came fresh from the Univ., with 1st Class Hons. in his subject, and soon proved himself an able teacher and an agreeable colleague. He had been a N.C.O. in the 9th R.S. for several years, and, taking a commission in the O.T.C., rose to command the Corps 1914-15, with the rank of Capt. Transferring to the 3/4th R.S., he did excellent instructional work, and went to France in 1916, where he was attached to the Gloucester Regt. with the rank of Major. He was Mentioned in Despatches the following year, and was wounded and ordered home. He decided to stay on, and, with the Hqrs. Staff of the Gloucesters, was destroyed by a German mine in the region of Peronne on Apr. 18, 1917, while pressing on after the retreating foe. https://www.gwc.org.uk/default/cache/file/56C5D58D2D40611150EB22675619436E.jpg https://www.gwc.org.uk/default/cache/file/56C5D58D2D40611150EB22675619436E.jpg – Maj Robert Finlay Gerrard 18.4.17 age 29 4th RS attd 1st/6th Gloucestershire Regt Mentioned in despatches.

Sergeant Gowans was a grocer with Rae & Co before the outbreak of war and was well known in the village. He was in the sector where the Germans launched their big offensive and died for his country gallantly striving to stem the German rush. Mrs Gowans has two other sons serving, Peter who joined the Canadian Contingent in the early days of the war, and has taken part in much of the heavy fighting; and John, who joined the Flying Corps in Vancouver. Her eldest son is very seriously ill at present in the West of Scotland, and Mrs Gowans was away helping to nurse him when the sad news of David’s death arrived.” Midlothian Advertiser, May 3rd, 1918 Fanning, James, ‘Far From the Front’, 2013 http://www.scotlandswar.ed.ac.uk/sites/default/files/pdf_West_Calder.pdf

Lance-Corporal Donald Grant, a young and very favourably spoken of native of the parish, who previous to the war was employed in the grocery business of Mr Weir, Dornoch, enlisted in the 9th Royal Scots, was severely wounded near Ypres on April 24 and after a period of suffering, died last week in a London hospital. The funeral took place at Dornoch on Friday, 21st inst. The remains arrived by mail train, a brother of the deceased, Colin Grant, of the 1st Canadian Contingent, travelling by the same train, and a large gathering, representing all classes of the districts of the parish, met at the railway station to pay the last honours to the brave young soldier. Along the route to the burying ground, groups of old and young viewed the sad procession with evident sorrow and sympathy. At the grave the Union Jack was placed on the coffin and the usual tribute of firing a volley was accorded.’ Northern Times 27 May 1915, reproduced 29 May 2015 ‘100 Years Ago’ Memorials: Dornoch War Memorial; Congregation Roll of Honour, Dornoch Cathedral; Congregation Memorial Window, Dornoch Cathedral Dornoch ROH0629 –

Gray, Edward Curtis Murray, Pte    Died from wounds. He resided at Willowbank, Dalkeith. Dated 4th May 1915 – Gray, Edward Curtis Murray, Pte  Intimation received from Hamilton by Mr and Mrs EG Gray, Willowbank, Dalkeith, that their youngest son Pte Edward Curtis Murray Gray (2310) died in an ambulance at 1 a.m. on 24th Apr while being removed to hospital wounded by a bullet recived while D Coy were engaged on a bayonet charge. Six weeks ago he had a trying experience when a shell burst on the convent in which they were billeted, causing about 50 casualties, including 9 deaths. A piece of shell cut his tunic and scratched his elbow, but he was able to resume duty almost immediately. 19yo. Had chosen the medical profession and had entered for the summer classes at Edin Univ previous to enlisting. Previously a pupil in the Junior Student Centre of Broughton School, Edinburgh. The Scotsman 4 May 15 – Gray, Edward Curtis Murray, Pte 2310 b. Dalkeith 28/6/1896 d. 23/4/15 age 19, Son of Edward and Jessie Gray (nee Thorburn), Brother of George Gray kia 20/8/1918. Curtis Gray was about to start medical studies at Edinburgh University when war was declared. Memorials: Dalkeith; Dalkeith Congregational Church; Dalkeith High School; Dalkeith New Cemetery. [Dalkeith Advertiser 6 May 1915]: Mr and Mrs E G Gray, Willowbank, Dalkeith, received the melancholy intimation on Monday morning that their youngest son, Private Edward Curtis Murray Gray (No 2310), 1/9 Battalion Highlanders, Royal Scots, had succumbed to the bullet wound he had received in the lower part of the body whilst his company had been engaged in a bayonet charge near Ypres. Death supervened at 1 am on the 24th of April while he was being removed in an ambulance to the base hospital. Once more have the ravages of this cruel and terrible war claimed a young life full of promise, just as the boyhood was giving way to a manhood of the highest type. When the war broke out, Curtis Gray, as he was familiarly and lovingly known in Dalkeith, instantly recognised where his duty lay and he cheerfully sacrificed everything that made life dear to him and manfully came forward, ready and willing – as he has done – to lay his life on the altar of his country. Whilst in military training, he developed into a splendid type of soldier, and up to the time when he received the fatal messenger of death, his health was well-nigh perfect. During all the months he was in France, he corresponded faithfully and regularly with his loved ones at home, and in none of his letters was the note of complaint – they were characterised by an optimism and sincerity that did much to relieve the anxiety that must necessarily fill so many hearts today. Six weeks ago he had a trying experience when the convent in which he was billeted was shelled. Although the shock he must have experienced then and the sights he had to face were enough to unnerve the bravest, yet his one thought was for others, and at that particular time he was tireless in his efforts to help those who had not been so fortunate as himself As it was he was struck on the elbow by a piece of shell. Prior to enlisting, the deceased was on the eve of entering the medical curriculum at Edinburgh University, where, endowed as he was with mental ability above the average, he would unquestionably have taken an honourable place. But, alas! like many another noble soul, he has given all in defence of King and country, and his memory will henceforth be enshrined everlastingly on the the hearts of those who knew his startling worth. To the parents and family of the departed young soldier, in their time of poignant sorrow, the sympathy of the community goes out in full measure. By the death of Private Gray, the Dalkeith High School Roll of Honour has been broken for the first time.

The Glenalmond Register 1847 – 1929 (Edinburgh, 1929), 125 Great War Forum – Henderson-Hamilton, James Campbell: Lieutenant, 9th Black Watch.Born on 26/01/1884 in Edinburgh. A son of the Rev Charles Henderson-Hamilton, Rector of St. Mary’s, Hamilton, and Mary Greenhill Henderson-Hamilton of Dalserf. Husband of Margaret [Rose] Henderson-Hamilton. Lieutenant Henderson-Hamilton was educated at Trinity College, Glenalmond and Edinburgh University. He qualified as an Advocate in 1907 and then became a Chartered Accountant employed by Messrs Moncrieff & Horsburgh, C.A.. Prior to the war he was commissioned as a Lieutenant in 9th Royal Scots, serving between 1902 and 1906. At the outbreak of the Great War he was commissioned as a 2nd Lieutenant in the Black Watch on 16/09/1914 and then promoted to Lieutenant on 14/12/1914, entering France as a theatre of war on 08/07/1915. He was killed in action at the Battle of Loos on 27/09/1915, aged 31, and is buried in Dud Corner Cemetery, Loos, Pas-de-Calais, France, Grave I.G.8. He was awarded the 1914-1915 Star, British War Medal & Victory Medal and was mentioned in De Ruvigny’s Roll Of Honour 1914-1918, the University of Edinburgh Roll of Honour 1914-1919 and a biographical note in The Scotsman, 05/10/1915. He is remembered on The Grange Cricket Club Memorial. http://www.scotlandswar.ed.ac.uk/sites/default/files/pdf_Grange.pdf – JAMES CAMPBELL HENDERSON-HAMILTON President, 1908-09; advocate, 1907; later apprentice Chartered Accountant; commissioned 9th Service Battalion The Black Watch, 1914; France, May 1915; killed in action at Loos, September 1915; Lieutenant. Speculative Society – See Henderson Hamilton
Henderson-Hamilton, James Campbell Lt 1884 – 27.9.15 with 9th Black Watch Admitted to Faculty July 1907 Father: Minister (Episcopal Church) Educ.: Trinity College, Glenalmond, Edinburgh University, Glasgow University More Advocates were killed at Loos than at any other engagement in the war; Henderson-Hamilton was in the thick of this terrible battle, the Great War‟s equivalent of Flodden. A son of the Manse, he was born in Edinburgh, but his father was Episcopal Minister of St Mary’s, Hamilton, and his childhood and early life were spent at Dalserf, Lanarkshire. His family had been landowners in Dalserf since at least 1292. Henderson-Hamilton’s diary of 1904 is still in possession of his grandson and describes in great detail the busy life of an Edwardian youth. He was educated at Trinity College, Glenalmond, where he excelled at cricket and shooting, and was cadet Sergeant in the Cadet Corps, his studies thereafter were at Glasgow and Edinburgh Universities; he graduated LLB in 1906. He served his bar apprenticeship with Strathern & Blair WS, now Anderson Strathern LLP. He was admitted to the Faculty in 1907. The 1911 Census lists Henderson-Hamilton living in a boarding house at 18 South Castle Street, Edinburgh, which he shared with a retired maltster and a linotype keyboard operator. At that time, his great friend was the Scottish colourist, Francis Cadell, and Henderson-Hamilton often sat for his portrait. Known at Parliament House as Jim Hamilton, he was a popular lawyer, known for his vivacity and gentleness. Despite his “nimble wit” and “ready speech” he decided to switch careers – the Scots Law Times thinks he would have succeeded but for a lack of acquaintances and backing in the profession. He therefore sought to qualify as a Chartered Accountant, and by 1914 he was in the offices of Moncrieff & Horsburgh preparing to take his final exams. A pre-war territorial, he had been a Lieutenant in the 7th Royal Scots, a battalion with its base in Leith. In September 1914 he was called to the colours in the 9th Black Watch, formally known as the Royal Highlanders; the battalion was based in Perth. He landed in France with his battalion in July 1915, a month when large quantities of Scottish territorial troops landed on the continent for the first time. Just a month before landing in France, he was granted leave to marry Helen Rose Margaret Remington in London after a whirlwind romance. They married on 19th June; in less than three weeks he would be dead. Her only consolation was that she was carrying his child. While in France, he received tragic news from Dalserf; his elder brother Charles had been killed on 21st August with the Cameronians in Gallipoli. His sister-in-law had died of pneumonia a few days before. Henderson-Hamilton’s regiment fought with the 44th Brigade in the 15th (Scottish) Division and on the morning of 25th September 1915, after gas canisters had been opened – not with any great success – they advanced towards Loos village under withering fire. This was the first time his battalion had been involved in any fighting. The 15th Division had great success initially, taking Loos village before the Germans had properly erected barriers in the streets, and then advancing to Hill 70 which was taken after a fierce fight. However, on the day Henderson-Hamilton was listed as killed, 27th September, the initial gains of the 25th would have seemed like a distant memory. Hill 70, captured at such great cost, was now back in enemy hands. After surviving the first two days of the battle, Hamilton was “killed just in front of the German trenches, while leading his men in the attack.” On that same day, a fellow Black Watch officer lost his life – Fergus Bowes-Lyon, brother of the future Queen Elizabeth, and on another part of the battlefield, John Kipling of the Irish Guards. It does seem more likely, reading these accounts, that Hamilton was actually killed on the 25th; by 0900 on that date the various Highland battalions, all mixed up, and largely bereft of officers who had mainly all been killed or wounded by this stage, had overrun Hill 70 and advanced as far as houses at the “Dynamitiere”; in the words of the official history of the 15th Division, the few survivors “remained exposed to heavy gunfire, machine gun, and artillery fire until all were either killed or wounded. Very few came back to tell the story.” The Scots Law Times recalls he was a well-known shot on the moors, and a keen tennis player. His “boyish light heartedness” and “charming youthfulness” were remembered fondly. Henderson-Hamilton‟s grave can be found in Dud Corner Cemetery, Loos. He rests with 33 fellow Black Watch soldiers including his commanding officer, killed on the same day as he was. Of the 2,000 burials in his cemetery, half are unidentified; and within the cemetery is the Loos Memorial to the 20,000 or so who have no known grave. Henderson-Hamilton’s parents were devastated by the death of both of their children, and by their daughter-in-law, all within a few short weeks. His mother died in 1917, and family lore blames a broken heart, although the Hamilton Advertiser refers to an acute attack of pneumonia “which carried her off in three days.” His father lived long enough to dedicate stained glass windows in St Mary’s, Hamilton, before dying in 1921. The windows are supposed to depict Rachel and her sons, but clearly depict Mrs Henderson-Hamilton and her two sons – there is an almost photographic likeness. The only positive note in this family tragedy is that Henderson-Hamilton’s son, James Leslie Campbell, was born on 23 March 1916. The son was brought up in South Kensington by his mother and English grandmother, with a small allowance from the Dalserf estate, and a noble name, reminding the infant of his Scottish roots. http://www.advocates.org.uk/media/2172/warmemorialwordpdf3.pdf Stained glass windows 26.1.1884 – 27.9.1915 http://warmemscot.s4.bizhat.com/warmemscot-post-8134.html – It was originally thought that Cadell painted this elegant portrait of Nan Ivory as a wedding gift for the sitter’s new husband, the artist’s close friend and long-standing patron, Ted Stewart. However, since the appearence of the piece in the most recent issue of our magazine International View, new information has come to light. It has been revealed that before she married Ted Stewart in February 1916, Nan had been briefly engaged to another close friend of Cadell’s, James Hamilton-Henderson in 1914. Ref Portrait of Nan Ivory https://www.lyonandturnbull.com/news-article/elegance-style-portraits-cadell-curister – One of those friends was the young Francis C. B. Cadell, for whom James sat many times for his portrait. Cadell was later to become famous as one of the Scottish Colourists. James and Bunty, as Cadell was known, were clearly great friends. James dined often with Bunty’s family at their house in Edinburgh, and Bunty was a frequent visitor to Dalserf. James himself enjoyed sketching local landscapes, no doubt encouraged by his friendship with the artist… Dalserf House must have been a happy place towards the end of the Victorian era. Newly married, Mary had given birth to two strong boys, Charles Campbell Henderson-Hamilton, in 1882, and James Campbell Henderson-Hamilton, in 1884.  http://www.dalserf.org/index.php/the-lairds-of-dalserf

Hume, Robert, Private (Innerleithen) Wednesday, 3 May 1916. The sad news of another St Ronan’s lad being killed in France reached Innerleithen, a letter being received by Mrs Hume, Cauldhame, intimating that her son, Robert, had been killed by a bullet. The deceased lad was a private in the 9th Royal Scots (Dandy Ninth), he having enlisted in the month of September previously. He afterwards went to Selkirk, and from there was drafted to France, and had only been on active service two months. Prior to enlistment, deceased was employed as vanman with Mr J. Forsyth, and for some time was a member of St Ronan’s Silver Band. He was eighteen years of age. He had an elder brother serving in France, in the Black Watch, and his father was in the 2 /8th Royal Scots, at present stationed at Chelmsford. The following is the letter received by Mrs Hume : — “It is with the deepest regret that I have to convey to you very bad news about your son in the 9th Royal Scots. He was struck last night by a bullet, and in spite of all we could do for him, he passed away within an hour. The bullet had got right into his side, and he lost consciousness almost at once and never regained it, so you may be sure he suffered little or no pain before the end. His loss is deeply regretted both by me, his platoon officer, and by his comrades in No. 3 platoon. He was always a willing and conscientious worker, whatever his task might be, and always a cheery companion among the men. I can realise what a blow the news will be to you and all his family, and you have our deepest and sincerest sympathy in your sorrow. He was buried in a little village just behind the firing line, where many a Scotsman lies who has fallen, like him, in his country’s cause, and our chaplain conducted the service. His elder brother John was fated to fall on July 22 of the same year (1916). He was in the Black Watch.Gunn, Dr., ‘The Book of Remembrance for Tweeddale’, 1925 https://archive.org/stream/bookofremembranc1925gunn/bookofremembranc1925gunn_djvu.txt Leithen Road, Innerleithen Peebleshire roll of honour : being names of men connected with Tweeddale enrolled in His Majesty’s forces, August 1914-December 1915 (1916) https://archive.org/details/peebleshirerollo1916peeb

It is possible he was 17 by this point. He was still with them in 1917 when renumbered to six-digit 351132 (a 9RS number). Did he go overseas with Royal Scots? I don’t know, he would have been 19 in 1917? It does look like he may have been in the RASC and then re-enlisted 12.11.19, until 2.6.21 discharged KR xvi no longer physically fir for service. I am not sure what qualifying date would be used to issue medals and place them on the roll. The ledger record has a different RASC service no so this was re-enlisted no? – Looks like temporary RASC number followed by permanent number, supply side of RASC GWF

Inglis, Alexander, Lt. (Stobo) 8/10th Gordon Highlanders. 1917. APRIL 11. Killed in action on Wednesday, April 11, Alexander Inglis, lieutenant, Gordon Highlanders, aged 26, only son of the late Alexander Inglis and Mrs Inglis, 2 Rillbank Terrace, Edinburgh. He was educated at the Royal High School, Edinburgh, and was a private in the 9th Royal Scots when war broke out. He obtained his commission in the Gordons in the autumn of 1914. He was employed with Messrs Thomas Nelson & Sons, publishers, Parkside Works, Edinburgh. Lieutenant Inglis was a grandson of the late Mr Alex. Inglis, who for 47 years was gamekeeper to Sir G. Graham Montgomery, Bart., Stobo Castle. His maternal grandfather was the late Mr Adam Brown, farmer, Drochil Castle. He went to France in July, 1915, and was through the battle of Loos and Hill 70 in September, 1915, being in the 41th Brigade of the 15th Scottish Division. He was bombing officer first for his battalion, then for the brigade, and latterly was acting Captain at the Divisional Bombing School, but was in command of the bombers of his brigade when he was killed. As in days of old, Lieut. Inglis and his Captain, Nelson, fell in the same battle of Arras, both in the same firm of Nelsons.

Paris-Plage August ’15.”’ Xmas card signed Ben, Sergeant, A Coy British Badge Forum – Information from John Johnston: Benjamin (Bennie) Bichan Irvine, son of William Bichan Irvine and Euphemia Gray Cundill McIntosh, was born 26 October 1893 at 34 Caledonian Crescent, Edinburgh, and was working as a Scientific Instrument Maker in the photographic department of A. H. Baird, 39 Lothian Street, Edinburgh when he enlisted in the 9th Royal Scots (Highlanders) Territorial Force on 14 September 1914. This battalion was known as “The Dandy Ninths”. After training in Scotland he left for active service in France on 23 February 1915. Bennie progressed through the ranks to become a Sergeant. He received a gunshot wound in the head on 27 May 1917 (latter stages of the battle of Arras) resulting in damage to his right eye and after he spent a few days in the Liverpool Merchant’s Mobile Hospital at Etaples, was posted to the 835 Area Employment Company of the Labour Corps, based at Dannes, about 10 kilometers north of Etaples. This was a large ammunition depôt. Bennie was promoted Company Quarter Master Sergeant, later Colour Sergeant, and remained there until 3 February 1919 when he returned to the United Kingdom to be discharged on 6 March 1919 having served a total of 4 years and 174 days. Ben married Margaret (Meg) Hutcheon Munro, daughter of David Hutcheon Munro and Johanna Grace Mouat of 17 Willowbrae Road, Edinburgh, on 16 September 1927, at the Church of Scotland Manse in Duddingston, Edinburgh. At that time Ben was a photographic dealer and Margaret was a photographer. Margaret’s father, deceased at the time of the marriage in 1927, had been a photographer also, and it is possible that Ben and his wife carried on his business. The 1943-44 Edinburgh PO Directory has “B. Irvine, optical and photographic dealer, 12 St. Peter’s Buildings; telephone FOU (Fountainbridge) 3347, house, 25 Craiglockhart Park” and these details were the same in 1959-1960. Ben was living at 25 Craiglockhart Park, Edinburgh in August 1949 when he registered the death of his mother, and later in 1961 when he registered the death of his brother William. Ben died on 16 January 1968 at 1 Glenlockhart Road, Edinburgh, a rest home/hospital. His occupation was given on his death certificate as “X-ray Assistant (Retired)”. Ben and Meg Irvine had one daughter, married with family, no other details known. 1-Benjamin (Ben) Bichen Irvine b. 26 Oct 1893, 34 Caledonian Crescent,   Edinburgh, d. 16 Jan 1968, 1 Glenlockhart Road, Edinburgh  +Margaret (Meg) Hutcheon Munro b. 17 Dec 1899, 24 Heriot Place, Edinburgh, m.   16 Sep 1927, Manse, Duddingston, Edinburgh, d. 5 Oct 1993, Fairfield Manor,   Fairfield Road, Broadstairs, Thanet, Kent, par.

Lt, listed West Lothian Courier for 10th Reserve Bn RS, presently billeted at Bathgate, 30th October 1914 West Lothian Courier 1st JUNE 1917 CAPTAIN JOHN THOMAS JOHNSTON Last night official word was received that Captain John Thomas Johnston, of Pottishaw, who resides in Marchwood, Bathgate, has been killed in action on Sabbath 27th May. Deceased, who was in the 26th year of his age, joined the Volunteer Force some seven years ago, as a Lieutenant in the Fauldhouse Company. He was until a little over a month ago, acting on duty on the East Coast with the rank of Captain. He was drafted on active duty to France about five weeks ago. The deceased was the only son of the late Mr Johnston, formerly of the Bathgate National Bank, and his mother, Mrs Johnston, who survives him. Like his father, he leaves a widow and one child, foe whom, as also his mother, deep sympathy is felt. The following letter has been received by Mrs Johnston, Marchwood. France 28th May 1917 Dear Mrs Johnston It is with deep sorrow that I write particulars of John’s death. He was killed yesterday morning about 10 o’clock, by shell fire, and death must have been instantaneous. He was buried this morning at 0 o’clock. At the time of death he was with his Company in the front line, and was in the Company Headquarters when the shell landed on the top and hit him in many places on the chest. The news of his death came as a great shock to me, as the night previous he had relieved my Company in the line, and I remained with him till 1.30 the same morning. Will you please accept my sincere sympathy in your great loss, and convey the same to his and your own relatives. In him I have lost a great friend. If there are any further particulars, which you would like to know, I will do my utmost to endeavour to obtain them if you will let me know.

After leaving school he started on a commercial career and became the Scottish agent for Messrs C & T Harris of Calne, Wiltshire – a firm then famous for its pork pies, hams and sausages. At the time of the outbreak of the First World War he was based in York. He enlisted there but joined the 9th Battalion, Royal Scots – Edinburgh’s kilted Territorial Battalion which was often referred to as the ‘Dandy 9th’. In 1916 he was promoted to Lance Corporal.

Kerr, Duncan, Sergt-Piper, Acting Pipe-Major, formerly Piper 4th VBRS, 21st September 1900.

Followed by Gilbert Kerr] Information from Aad Boode – Duncan Alexander James Kerr was born in 1868 at Glencorse, the son of Duncan and Jessie Kerr (nee Cunningham), and died in 1928. His younger brother, namely Gilbert Mitchell Kerr (qv), was born in Glencorse in 1870. Duncan appears to have been Pipe-Major (9th VB / 9th Royal Scots) from perhaps 1900 until at least 1912 and his regimental service number was 221. The earliest mention I have found of Duncan Kerr in a newspaper recorded as Pipe-Major of the 9th VB Royal Scots, was the 30th January 1902 edition of The Northern Times. Kerr, D.A.J.

Kerr, Gilbert Mitchell b.1870 Glencorse d.1919 Edinburgh, Pipe Major 9th Vn Bn RS from ?1902 [“?” in original, as Pipe Major follows from Kerr, Duncan Alexander James] From Aad Boode, author of book on military Pipe Majors – Gilbert Mitchell Kerr, was born in Glencorse in 1870 the son of Duncan and Jessie Kerr (nee Cunningham) and died in 1919 (apparently from the Spanish flu). Brother of Duncan Alexander James Kerr (qv). Gilbert is recorded as having served as a Piper in the 4th Royal Scots (Queens Edinburgh Rifles) and possibly also having served as Pipe-Major of either the 4th or the 9th Royal Scots at one stage (in 1902).  The younger brother Gilbert is actually the better known of the two.  I don’t know if you’ve ever seen the photo of the piper playing to a penguin in Antarctica….well that was Gilbert.  He took part in a number of Arctic and Antarctic expeditions including with Capt. Robert Scott.  This picture on Wikipedia from Royal Scottish Geographical Society, public domain, March 1904, also at scran Gilbert’s bagpipes were subsequently donated to the 15th Bn. Royal Scots and played by their Pipe-Major (Sergt. 17017 David Anderson).  He was badly wounded and Kerr’s old bagpipes were damaged and lost in the same incident (1916). Anderson however survived WW1 and subsequently joined the City of Edinburgh Police as a Police Constable and he played as a piper in the polis pipe band. There are a couple of newspaper articles mentioning him from the early 1930s in which he is quoted as saying that he very much regretted the loss of Kerr’s bagpipes! If Pipe-Major it can’t have been for very long as Gilbert was continually away on Arctic and Antarctic expeditions.  There are a quite a few newspaper articles that mention him from 1904, 1906, 1909, 1912 etc. and they simply refer to him as Piper Gilbert Kerr and not as Pipe-Major. Information from Ron Abbott GWF, who contributed to Aad Boode’s work “A PIPE-MAJOR WITH THE ANTARCTIC EXPLORERS The portrait is that of Mr Gilbert Kerr. Pipe-Major of the Highland Battalion Queen’s Brigade, who has got an appointment on the Scottish Antarctic Expedition.” EEN 5.11.1902 courtesy Ron Abbott Laboratory Assistant and expedition piper, Scotia medal Scottish National Antarctic Expedition 1902-04 Prince of Monaco’s Expedition, Spitsbergen 1906 (3rd Expedition), and 1907 (note one photograph taken at ‘Kerr Lagoon’).

Kerr, Henry T.R., A son of Mr. H. F. Kerr, A.R.I.B.A., Edin., was born in 1895, and attended G.W.C. 1905-13. He was an apprentice C.A., and enlisted in the 9th R.S. in Nov. 1914. Gaining a commission in the Cameron Hrs. eight months later, he proved himself an excellent officer, and was assistant instructor to the O.T.C. of the Highland Bde. at Catterick. Crossing to France in Feb. 1916, he saw six months’ service round Bethune. In a bombing raid on the Hohenzollern Redoubt, June 30, 1916, he brilliantly achieved his object, but failed to return, and died of wounds in the hands of the enemy, July 3, 1916. ?

The Queen’s Own (Cameron Highlanders), only s. of Henry Francis Kerr, of 12, East Claremont Street, Edinburgh, A. R.I. B. A., Architect, by by wife, Ada, dau, of the late John Geagan ; b. Edinburgh, 18 Oct. 1895 ; educ. George Watson’s College there; was training as Chartered Accountant; enlisted in the Royal Scots Regt. in Nov. 1914: obtained a commission 25 June, 1915; was appointed Assistant Instructor in the Young Officers’ Training Corps of the Highland Brigade at Richmond, co. York ; served with the Expeditionary Force in France and Flanders from Feb. 1916 ; was reported missing 30 June, 1916. while leading a bombing party at the Hohenzollern Redoubt (Ben Nevis Sap), and is now officially assumed to have died of wounds 3 July, 1916. His Colonel wrote: “Your son most gallantly led his party right up to the German wire, and, according to one man who took part, he and a few others actually succeeded in entering the German trench. This I cannot vouch for, but that he succeeded in reaching the wire at all in face of the terrible rifle, machine-gun and bomb fire, was a feat demanding the highest courage. On finding that his party was so reduced in numbers, your son adopted the only course that was open to him. He and his party bombed the German trench, and then he gave the order to retire. From that time onwards I can get no definite information as to what happened to him. It was a very bad bit of ground between the two lines, full of shell-holes, disused trenches and broken wire. When the party returned he was found to be missing. Patrols were sent out that and the following nights, but no trace of him could be found. His men who were with him and his brother officers in his company are not hopeful of his chances. I put it plainly as it appears to us. On the other hand, there is the fact that he was not to be found; and might possibly have been wounded and captured. But whether he is now alive or whether he died in his gallant attempt, the fact remains that he carried out his orders to the letter in face of most terrible opposition. Before starting his party became disorganized through the explosion of a mine ; shells poured on them from every direction, but in spite of all he led his men over our parapet and inspired all with his gallantry and devotion to duty. As his Commanding Officer, I can’t speak too highly of all his work, and I deplore the loss in him of one of the keenest and most reliable officers in the battalion.” Roll of Honour, Ruvigny, Vol IIIWWR

KING, Robert, Pte, R.S., third son of Mr. John King, was a pupil at the Academy when war was declared. After leaving school he was employed in the Stewarton branch of the Royal Bank. On attaining the age of 18 in March, 1917, he was called up and detailed to the 9th Royal Scots. In March, 40 1918, he went to France, and in April his battalion took part in the fierce fighting around La Bassée. For a long time thereafter he was reported missing, but he must have fallen on that fiercely contested piece of ground. http://www.kilmarnockacademy.co.uk/formerpupilsww1.htm – Robert King Second brother to die in World War One, born 24, March 1899 Glen street Barrhead Renfrewshire. Residence: Stewarton, Ayrshire 28 Dunlop street Enlisted Ayr, died 12.4.18 44250, formerly 56490 HLI Prior to joining the army Robert was employed at the Royal Bank of Scotland, Stewarton, and was living with his family at 28 Dunlop Street, Stewarton Ayrshire Scotland
Robert followed his two older brothers James and John King into the Colours (James died in Gallipoli on the 12th of July 1915) Robert joined the HLI just three days after his 18th birthday, standing 5 foot 6 and quarter inches tall and 7.5 stones in weight. 
He transferred regiments and was posted Private with the 9th Royal Scots, On the 27th of March 1917, He embarked for France and was deployed to the Western Front in France, 31st March 1918. In February 1918 the British Army was reorganised and on the 6th Feb the 1/9th Royal Scots transferred to 183rd Brigade, 61st (South Midland) Division. they were in action in The Battle of St Quentin and The Actions at the Somme Crossings they then returned to Flanders and were in action in The Battle of Estaires, And The Battle of Hazebrouck (12–15 April) Hazebrouck was a village in the Nord department in northern France but a major railway crossing. On 12 April, the Sixth Army renewed its attack in the south, towards the important supply centre of Hazebrouck, another 6 miles to the west. The Germans advanced some 1 to 2 miles and captured Merville. On 13 April they were stopped by the First Australian Division, which had been transferred to the area. Robert was reported missing 12th April 1918, Later to be announced as presumed to have died on or since that date Robert has no known grave and is commemorated on Ploegsteert Memorial to the missing on Panel1 Ploegsteert, Arrondissement de Mouscron, Hainaut, Belgium, He is also listed on the Stewarton war memorial.  Roberts Parents are pictured with his older Brother John who survived WW1  There is a Robert King listed on the Cowan park memorial, but I believe this to be Robert king of the Gordon Highlanders who died age 19 years of wounds at Bellahouston Hospital on 11th March 1919 ,His parents brothers and sisters resided at Hendry street Barrhead East Renfrewshire.

He served on Crete and in South Africa in 1904. In 1906 he accompanied the battalion when they were sent down to the Zulu Rebellion. Transferred to the 1st Battalion and appointed Pipe Major on the 7th February 1907; youngest Pipe Major in the British Army at the time. At the conclusion of His Majesty’s visit to Aldershot, 8th July 1911, he was presented with the Royal Victorian Medal, the first man to receive a decoration from George V.

He then served as Pipe major of the 1st Transval Scottish until transfered to the Witwatersrand Rifles in 1936.

CMG MB ChB Edin(1917) DPH Oxon(1921) DTM&H(1922) MRCP(1933) FRCP(1942) Balfour Kirk was born at Falkirk and lived to the age of 90. He was educated at George Watson’s College and Edinburgh University, and like so many of his generation of medical students joined the Army, in the ranks, as a combatant at the outbreak of war in 1914, before being sent back to complete his medical training in 1917 and then rejoin the RAMC. After the war he took a DPH and the DTM&H and joined the Colonial Service as MOH of Port Louis, Mauritius. He rose to be director of medical services in Mauritius and was transferred to the Gold Coast (Ghana) as director in 1941. He served with UNRRA in Greece, and later in Germany, and was awarded the CMG. On retiring from the Colonial Service he joined the Ministry of Health and served there until 1962. Balfour became a member of the College in 1933 and a Fellow nine years later. He had a broad knowledge of medicine and a clear, succinct way of expressing it. He was a patient and valuable reviewer and collator of drafts in the Ministry of Health; abilities which were used to the full in the editing of its medical publications, including the CMO’s annual report On the state of the Public Health and the special reports then known as ‘Grey Books’, which ranged from reports on maternal deaths to the testing of very young handicapped children by Mary Sheridan. He succeeded Alison Glover, also a Fellow [Munk’s Roll, Vol.V, p.l52], in this work. He was used as a confidant and adviser by colleagues at all levels without ever becoming a partisan of any particular group, or a passer-on of anyone else’s opinions, no mean achievement in that kind of cloister. Balfour ran the Monthly Bulletin of the Ministry and the Public Health Laboratory Service, which became the forerunner of Health Trends. Balfour was a shrewd, laconic Scot with a lively sense of humour. He was physically active, regularly playing five holes of golf before breakfast – on the course which was at the foot of his garden in Surrey -and then walking the mile and a half from Victoria to the office in Saville Row. He gardened, was something of a gourmet, an expert on wines, and a carenil but assiduous operator in the stock market. He had married on qualification in 1917; a marriage that lasted the rest of his life. He enjoyed 22 years of his second retirement till his death in 1984.
