HC Deb 18 December 1919 vol 123 c695W
Mr. JAMESON

asked the Pensions Minister whether Sergeant Thomas Blaikie, No. S/10071, 3rd Cameron Highlanders, attached 10th Officers' Cadet Battalion, was accidentally killed at Barassie, Ayrshire, on 17th February, 1917; whether the deceased had eighteen years' service at the outbreak of War and received ten bullet wounds and a shrapnel wound in his head at the battle of Loos; whether his widow, Mrs. F. Blaikie, is receiving only a temporary pension of 15s. weekly, while no allowance is made far his child born three weeks after his death; and whether he will consider the advisability of making provision for cases of this kind?

Sir L. WORTHINGTON - EVANS

I am reviewing this case, and I should be glad if the hon. Member would repeat the question on Monday.
