26 November 1920 diary of Dr John Stewart Muir (1845-1938) of Selkirk

David [Graham] + I went down to Faldonside + did another spinal puncture1. The fluid came out more strongly.

1 Presumably on Phyllis Mary ‘Fiff’ Dees (1899-1920), daughter of Robert Irwin Dees (1872-1923) and Edith Mary Boileau Dees née Henderson, the new (1920) tenants at Faldonside; she had been involved in a car accident near Berrybush while travelling between the Gordon Arms and Tushielaw
