Kelso Chronicle – Six escaped German prisoners of war still at large

31 August 1917

The six German prisoners who last week escaped from Stobs Camp and still at large. The Chief Constable of Counties of Roxburgh, Berwick, and Selkirk, W B R Morren issued descriptions of Bernhard Haak , Paul Otto Buty, Walter Dusselmann, Wilhelm Heinrich Jenson, Max Emmerlich and Emil Schulz. Dressed in brown corduroy suit, with blue patch on centre of back of jacket and font and back of trousers. These men will no doubt endeavour to obtain a change of clothing. They can all speak English, but their relatives are all resident in Germany and they will no doubt make an effort to return to their native country.
