friends here who will regret to learn
of his injuries. The despatch says:
"News came to -day that Lieut. Ran-
dall Rose, eldest son of City Treasur-
er Rose, was severely wounded in
France, and had been admitted to the
6-th Red Cross hospital at Etaitles.
The message frorn the war office stat-
ed that he was severely wounded in

neers of the Iniperial army. He paid,
his o way to England shortly after
the ar broke out, and joined . the
fa ouseBlack Watch. He served in
France as a private, afterwards tak-
ing a special course for engineer of-
ficers at Chatham, and received his

the pioneer doctor of that place. He
was graduated from Victoria College
about 1865, and became so devoted
to his profession that the ac,curnula-

of little consideration. Although
many years have come and gone since
he found it advisable to relinquish the
responsibilities a a strenuous prac-
tice, persoos still, not infrequently,
speak about,the exceptional ,ability,
his kindly disposition, his outstanding
personality and his self-aserifice In
always striving to assist others. Al-
so at times some" old time patients
refer to the influmee for good cer-
tain acts he performed wrought in
their lives. In this connection it is
