Kōrero taurongo
- David Wilson was the son of David Nicholson Wilson and Francisco Janet Wilson, of Ajax St., Milton, Otago, New Zealand. Native of Romahapa, Otago. AWMM
- Private David Mitchell Wilson, killed in action on the 8th June “somewhere in France,” was the eldest son of Mr and Mrs D. N. Wilson, N. Z. Railways, Milton, and had just recently celebrated his 21st birthday in the trenches. He was a native of Romahapa, Catlin’s River District, and started his school career at Kokonga and Rough Ridge, Otago Central, and completed his education at Windsor, North Otago. After leaving school, he joined the Railway Department’s service at Dunedin, as a cleaner in the loco. Department. He enlisted at Oamaru at the age of 19 years, and left New Zealand with the 11th Reinforcements on 2nd April, 1916. Private Wilson was wounded in the left arm and left leg on September 19th during the Somme fighting, and was admitted to the hospital at Etaples, France, where he was discharged after six weeks’ treatment. After eleven days at the base he re-joined his regiment, and was in the firing line until he met his death on 8th June. Of four cousins who have been in action, three are railwaymen, two of whom have been seriously wounded, and one has made the supreme sacrifice, whilst one only, so far, has escaped injury, though he has had the sad misfortune of losing his wife since leaving New Zealand. Private Wilson was beloved by all who knew him, and many friends will miss his bright and cheery face, and his comrades of the footplate, to whom he was known as “Wee Scottie,” will sadly mourn his loss.
