The Essendon Gazette of 10 June 1915, in its For King and Country column, carried the photo of a young man in civilian dress with a subheading. There was no article to explain the reference or nor does his name appear on the Roll Of Honour either then or in the succeeding three years of the War. Who was this man and why did the Essendon Gazette think that this could be of interest to readers?
Never one to ignore a challenge, Marilyn Kenny set out to solve the mystery of this youthful doctor. She details her findings in an article Mystery Man: Major Johnston Hughston RAMC.
