Description	Cameron Highlanders Red Cross doctor killed by German shell
Details	An incident described by a private soldier of the Black Watch who was present in the room a few minutes before a shell explosion took place and who was one of the first on the scene. The witness's account was given from University College Hospital where he was recovering. The scene shows a room in a country house on the banks of the Aisne where about a dozen wounded Cameron Highlanders were resting and a doctor was inspecting their wounds. A shell from the German lines coming through the window burst in the room, with disastrous effects, the doctor and nearly all soldiers being killed on the spot.
