It was with deep regret we learned of the death of Mr. D. Y. Veitch, in Lochmaben Hospital on Saturday, 6th February.     Mr Veitch was a life long member and supporter of our congregation. He was ordained an elder in 1948. He represented the fourth generation of the family to hold this office. He carried out his duties with much acceptance until he was forced by ill health to give up active participation in the work of our church.  Of a very genial personality he will be greatly missed not only in the kirk but also in the community. Our deepest sympathy goes to Mrs Veitch and family. Also to his father, Mr T. Veitch, our senior elder and former Session Clerk.     [Mag.]
