LOCAL SOLDIER'S DEATH IN FRANCE - We regret to announce the death of Pte Archibald Sneddon, son of Mrs Robert Sneddon, Dickson Street, West Calder, in France.
Pte Sneddon contracted a bad attack of bronchitis, and was brought to No 37 Clearing Station, where he succumbed. One of the nurses telegraphed Mrs Sneddon that his condition was serious, but no permit could be granted to see him, and the sad news of his death was received this week.
Sympathy will be felt for his widowed mother and family circle.
