Order of Bath

edit

The article states that Gairdner was created a Commander of the Order of Bath.

This confused me as there are no "commanders", only "knight commanders"; and he's not called Sir James Gairdner.

His listing within the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography makes no mention of receiving the Order of Bath. And I can't find anything online referring to him as "Sir".

So is it just an error? --Rushton2010 (talk) 19:48, 11 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
