  • An Able Minister. There was large attendance at the memorial service, the front seats being occupied by members and adherents who had served in H.M. Forces. Rev. Dr Hugh George Watt, St Enoch's Parish Church, was the preacher, and in a short address, prior to the unveiling of the windows, he said that the late Dr Cameron was one of the ablest ministers—to his mind the ablest minister of the Church of Scotland in the city. From the present unrest in the country we will come out on a calmer sea by and by. Death could not destroy the fruits of faith. The war memorial was afterwards unveiled by Lieut.-Colonel J. B. Muir, D.S.O., 4th Black Watch, and Mrs Cameron unveiled the memorial to her late husband. A dedication prayer was offered up by Dr Watt, and Bugler Alex. Nesbit sounded the "Last Post.'' After the Dead March in "Saul" had been played Mr Wm. Brunton, the organist, Bugler Nesbit sounded the "Reveille," and the service, which had been most impressive throughout, concluded with the singing of the National Anthem. Dundee Courier, Monday 10 May 1920
