"Presentation – On Wednesday, Mr Andrew Dunlop was presented with a handsome wristlet watch, a shaving set, and a silver cigarette case, from his fellow employees – the works of Messrs W. Hall & Co., hosiery manufacturers – on the occasion of his going on military service. With warm good wishes the gifts were gracefully presented by Mr Eddie Gallacher, and were suitably acknowledged by the recipient."

(Severely Wounded).
Mrs Andrew Dunlop, 4 Rigg Street, Stewarton, has received intimation that her husband, Private Andrew Dunlop, D Coy., Royal Scots Fusiliers, was admitted on 25th March to hospital suffering from fracture of right arm and abdominal wounds (severe).

"Private Andrew Dunlop, R.S.F.
(Died of Wounds.)
In our last issue we noted that this soldier had been severely wounded in France, and the sad news has just come to hand that he died on his wounds on 4th inst. In a letter to his widow the matron of the hospital says that they had hoped he would pull through but pneumonia had set in."
Source Roll of Honour of the Burgh and Parish of Stewarton 1914-1919:
"Private Andrew Dunlop, R.S.F., was in the employment of Messrs. W. Hall & Co., and lived with his wife and family at 6 Rigg Street.
He joined the county regiment in August, 1917, and went to France the following February.
He was spared to give only a very brief service abroad, for in March he was severely wounded by a shell, and he died in hospital, 4th April, 1918.
He was buried at Wimereux Cemetery within sight of the Channel which he had crossed for the first time only six weeks before."
