Another of the gallant men on Ardler Roll of Honour has made the great sacrifice - Pvt. F.G. Robertson 7th Black Watch, son of Mr John Robertson, presently residing at Drumkilbo Cottages, Meigle.
Pvt. Robertson, of whom nothing has been heard since the end of July, is reported to have been very severely wounded during the evacuation of a sap by our men, and although receiving first aid on the field, it is officially reported of him that he did not pass through the doctor's hands, and is deemed to have died on the way to the hospital.
He had been at the Front for quite a long time, was an extremely fine lad, and greatly loved by his officers and mates.
On Sunday in Ardler Parish Church Rev A. Stuart made special reference to the above sad news, and at the close of the service the whole congregation stood as the Dead March was played.

* Also commemorated on the Ardler War Memorial
