Brave Runner Falls While Dispatch Carrying
Pte. F. T. Moulder, London Scottish, killed in action while carrying dispatches under heavy shellfire, was a native of Clapham, formerly residing at 35, Cottage-grove, Bedford-rd. He joined the London Scottish in the early days of the war and did excellent work as a company and battalion runner since the days of the terrible Somme push of 1916.
