!MENTION: Rev. Dr. Donald MacKinnon and Alick Morrison, THE MACLEODS--THE GENEALOGY OF A CLAN, Section II, Edinburgh, The Clan MacLeod Society, 1968, p. 56. Arthur Wyckoff, born in 1893,Š received a B.A. from Acadia University in 1915, although he had enlisted, with his brother Norman MacLeod, earlier that year in the 6th Canadian Mounted Rifles. After nearly a year in France as signallers in the 9th Canadian Infantry Brigade, both were brought back to Canada for Commission in the Nova Scotia Highland Brigade.
