George Paterson 3/1138 3rd Black Watch
RESERVIST DIES FROM WOUNDS.
The intimation of the death of Private George Paterson, 3rd Black Watch, is somewhat belated, as he died from wounds on 26th January. Deceased was twenty-four years of age, and prior to being called up was employed as a carter with Messrs Wordie & Co., carting contractors, in Dundee. He resided at 7 Crescent Street, but his wife has for some time been living with her mother at 194 Overgate.
