This Fund was settled in trust as a Memorial of Lieutenant George Watson Guthrie, M.B., CM.,

1916.
The Fund produces an ^nnual free income of about /1 ,000.

training for professional life or for business, or maintaining during the period of education and training
(or assisting to educate or maintain) the sons of Scottish officers, warrant officers, non-commissioned
officers, and men of the Royal Navy, the Army, and the Royal Air Force, and their aintiliary services,
wherever resident, who served in the War, and who either were killed in action, or drowned, died of
wounds, accidents, or illness contracted in the course of their active service, or so disabled during such
