Entered October 1903

William Donald Douglas attended Metropolitan School of Art. The following is some of his school records .

We (Mavis and Jennifer) were able to find when looking through family archives that were in the care of Kaye Edkins nee

Douglas in South Africa, wonderful history of contact that was kept between Samuel’s family in England and William Magee

Douglas’s family in South Africa. The following are copies we were able to make of correspondence ‘cousin Willie’ had with, we

assume, Roderick Hawksley Douglas.
