Death of John Webster McNaught in the French Hospital.
Greg Leck gives his age as 83, Tony Banham as 80 and the Red Cross as 84. The last of these states that ''Mr. McNaught apparently died of old age' and tells us that his possessions included Masonic Lodge papers and a pocket book of engineering formulae.. He was probably one of the aged or sick internees moved from Stanley in February.
