Alfred Fullerton   Royal Naval Division

DUNDEE NAVAL DIVISION OFFICER MISSING.

Lieutenant Alfred Fullerton, the Royal Naval Division, son of Mrs Fullerton, 7 Melville Terrace, Westpark Road, Dundee, has been reported missing.

Lieutenant Fullerton, who is 32 years of age, is the youngest son of the late Mr James Fullerton, a prominent jute merchant in the city.  Prior to the war he travelled extensively, but soon after the commencement of hostilities returned to this country and joined the Royal Naval Division.  The missing officer saw service in Gallipoli, where he was wounded, and acted as an instructor until some time ago, when he again went out to the firing line.
