DYSART ROYAL SCOT IS REPORTED KILLED.
Private John Cargill, Royal Scots, whose wife and family reside at 51 Edington Place, Dysart, is reported killed in action.
Private Cargill, who leaves a widow and four children, was formerly a miner in the Frances Pit, and enlisted in January last year. He had been fully a year in the firing line. He was wounded last year, but returned to the front five months ago. His wife received a postcard from him stating that he expected to be out of the trenches for a rest, but the following day a letter she had sent him was returned to her marked "Killed in action."
Dundee Courier 22 May 1916 |

Unveiled on Saturday 20th of November 1920 by the Earl of Rosslyn.
The two out of sequence names are later additions as there are 104 names and the article states only 102 at the time of dedication.
