MISSING DUNDEE SOLDIER NOW A PRISONER.

A Dundee soldier who was posted missing on July 19 is now reported to be a prisoner of war in Germany.  He is Private Leslie Gibb, son of Mrs James Dawson 566 Loons Road.  Although the fate which has befallen him is not an enviable one, his relatives will be glad to learn that he has not fallen in action, as was at one time feared.

Dundee Courier 21st September 1916
