Local Historian Andrew Grant remembers the Gretna disaster of Saturday 22nd May 1915 in words and pictures at our Wee Museum of Memory. No need to book, just join us on the day.Towards the crimson fields and trenches deep
They journeyed on,
Till fate decreed that they should sleep
Much nearer home.
But though their couch be far removed
From scenes of strife,
Still to the land they dearly loved
Each gave his life.
For in the will, not in the deed,
True courage lies;
And all had owned their country's need -
Great sacrifice!
