Dundee Courier 10 May 1920- MEMORIAL UNVEILED IN DUNDEE.
IMPRESSIVE SERVICE IN ROSEBANK CHURCH.
Two memorial stained-glass windows were unveiled in Rosebank Parish Church, Dundee, yesterday - one in memory of Rev. Dr D. B. Cameron, who was for many years minister of the parish, and the other to perpetuate the gallantry of those belonging to the congregation who gave their lives in the great war.

Placed in the centre of the east wall of the church, the windows are of a very chaste design. The figure of St John the Baptist, is delineated in the minister's memorial, and a militant figure, St Michael, with sword in hand, is portrayed on the other. Below each window is a brass plate appropriately inscribed, and the following names of the men who fell are recorded, viz.:-
Second-Lieut. John Dawson, Second-Lieut. Peter W. Thomson, Lance-Corpl. Norman Robertson, Second A.M. Robert J. Bain, Pte. Edward Clark, Pte. David Clark, Pte. John R. Kennedy, Pte. John Kinnear, Pte. John Laing, Guardsman D. J. M'Mahon, Gunner Hugh Petrie, Pte. Wm. Soutar, Guardsman Jas. Wilkie, and Pte. John Young.
“They died for us" is inscribed below the names.
