Pte. John Mitchell
(Glasgow Herald 8th June 1915)
"Private Hugh Dodds, attached to the 8th Royal Scots, and son of Mr & Mrs Joseph Dodds, Milton Cottages, Carluke, in a letter to Mr & Mrs Robert Mitchell, whose son was recently killed in action, writes "I am writing to you to let you know how John met his death. He died fighting for his country, and i do not think he could have died a nobler death. We were under very heavy shell fire, and one of the shells landed right on the top of the gun where we were sitting. It was about 5 minutes before we could see anything, and it was a sad sight that afterwards met our eyes. John was lying dead." "
"Mr Robert Mitchell, Milton Cottages, Carluke, has recieved official notice of the death of his son, Private John Mitchell, 8th Royal Scots. He was in the machine gun section, and was killed by a shell exploding near him. He was 21 years of age, and had served for several year in the Carluke Territorial Corps."

2nd Lieut. A . STEWART, M.C. has an individual memorial in the Isle of Whithorn Church in Wigtownshire.
http://warmemscot.s4.bizhat.com/viewtopic.php?t=2146
Andrew Stewart, Military Cross – age 31 – Second Lieutenant: 10th Battalion, Northumberland Fusiliers. Formerly Leading Seaman (Z/7633) Royal Naval Division, Royal Navy.
Andrew was born in 1886 in Carluke. A son of William Stewart (a Joiner) of 19 Union Street, Carluke. He graduated (M.A.) from Glasgow University in 1909 and had been an assistant minister in Hamilton before taking up the post of Minister of the Isle of Whithorn United Free Church in January 1914.
He enlisted in the RND in December 1915 and was posted to Blandford Camp in Dorset. A year later he applied for a commission and, after attending Officer Training at Fermoy in Co. Cork, he was appointed as a 2nd Lt. in the Northumberland Fusiliers in April 1917.
Military Cross citation (for an action on 18 September 1917): T./2nd Lt. Andrew Stewart, att'd North'd Fus.
“For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. Under heavy machine-gun fire he crawled up to within five yards of an enemy strong point and opened fire with a Lewis gun to cover his platoon's attack on the strong point.”
Andrew was killed in action on 20 September 1917 at the Battle of Menin Road and is buried in Larch Wood (Railway Cutting) Cemetery, Belgium. _________________ Ken |

I have a wee problem with this chap on the Carluke War Memorial, it does appear that he is the brother of John B Dunlop though, but the SNWM and CWGC have different theatres of death, SNWM has him with the same date of death and service number KIA in Salonica, whilst the CWGC has his place of death as France - any ideas??

The 2nd Bn was in Salonika but CWGC says he is buried in France so he will have been 1st Bn. His SNWM entry should say France & Flanders, not Salonika.

Ramage House was named after Sergeant Arthur Ramage. He served in the local Territorials before the First World War, and in June 1915 he embarked for France. In September of the same year during a heavy enemy attack on his Machine-Gun Section he showed outstanding bravery by bringing several severely wounded comrades to safety from no-man's land. For this he was awarded the Military Medal. The following year he rescued his officer under a hail of enemy fire and received a bar to his Military Medal. That year he was also awarded the Distinguished Conduct Medal for outstanding gallantry and devotion to duty in the reconnaissance of a farm held by the enemy. The French government presented him with the award of the Croix de Guerre.
