Private, 7th Bn. Cameron Highlanders
Buried at Loos Memorial
Commemorated at Hillhead High School
The only son of Mr. William Cameron, lately headmaster' of Dowanhill Public School, Private Cameron was born in 1887. He adopted a business career, and several years ago he went to West Africa to a post in a bank. When the war broke out he, like so many more, hurried home, and at once joined the 7th Camerons, which was then being raised. He was in the immortal charge of that famous regiment at Loos, 25th September, 1915, and fell early in the battle. A quiet, reserved, high-principled young man, he was greatly beloved by all who knew
him. He, like all others who came from distant lands to the help of the Motherland, deserves a specially generous meed of praise.
