Graham, Harry Joseph S/4310 (1892 - 1915)

Private, 9th Bn. Black Watch (Royal Highlanders)

Buried at Philosophe British Cemetery, Mazingarbe

Commemorated at Hillhead High School

Lance-Corporal Harry J. Graham enlisted in The Black Watch on 2nd September, 1914.

While at School he was a thoughtful, studious boy whose interests did not lie much along the line of games. On leaving school he entered the office of the Coltness Iron Company, Limited, 138 West George Street, where he continued till war broke out.

For four years he was a member of the 5th Scottish Rifles, and took a keen interest in this branch of training. Like so many more gallant
fellows, he fell in the fierce onslaught on 25th September, 1915.

Much sympathy is felt for his widowed mother, whose only son he was.
