MBM: Gilmour born 1881. He was an enterprising young man, who became a prospecting engineer and travelled the world, first in Western Australia, then China, Bolivia and Peru. He came home periodically, to the joy of my brother and myself, organising expeditions up the Loch Lomond and to the 1911 Exhibition at Kelvingrove, Glasgow. He developed T.B., went to Silver City, New Mexico, where improvement in health enabled him to marry Jean Campbell and settle for a short time in Los Angeles, where he died in 1923.
