Hi Star Rock, very often such things were not mentioned in the family especially during the War , so I'll be interested to hear what you find out. I hope
someone will get in touch with you.
I must correct myself here - It was a kind friend who sent me the article which was found in the newspaper. The Caithness Violinst who wrote it was the Late
Robert MacKay of Halkirk - a much respected man in the north.
