Borders FHS has recorded the MI for Old Ladhope, St Peters and Eastlands - there is no MI for Thomas Graham for 1918 in any of the three.  It may be that the headstone is one of those which has fallen and is unreadable or that there is no headstone.   I think the Gala Aisle burial ground would have been closed by then.

Bereavement Services at Scottish Borders Council would be able to confirm where the burial was.
