'He left Malvern young, seizing the opportunity of the emergency examination for Sandhurst in August 1914. On passing out of Sandhurst he was gazetted to the Scottish Rifles, but was kept at home till within a week of his 19th birthday, when he was sent to France. He fought on the Flanders front and was wounded on July 31, 1917. Returning to France in April 1918, he was killed in action July 23. Letters from his Colonel and brother officers show that he was a fine and fearless soldier and a great loss to his regiment.' (Malvernian, Nov 1918).
