Regimental Sergeant-Major Marsham’s friends in Behar will regret to
hear that bad luck has again overtaken him. On the way up to rejoin
after recovering from his wounds, he was so unfortunate as to be in
company with the Derbyshire Militia when they met with their disaster,
and is believed to have been taken prisoner with them. So far I have
no official communication as to this, but, not having heard from or of
him, conclude it is only too true.
Private Percy Smith and Lance-Corporal Hugh Blair have received
commissions in the Regular forces and are no longer with the corps,
although the former is for a time attached to the Oxford M.I.—part of
our own regiment under Colonel Ross. Blair is among the sick men
mentioned and at present in Cape Town.
Lord Roberts has also been good enough to grant commissions to Private
Douglas Jones—in the Army Service Corps—Privates J.A. Fraser, Collins,
T.B. Nicholson, J.S. Biscoe, and Corporal Bates. Several of the latter
are for the West India Regiments. All these remain with me for the
present.
Lieutenant Pugh and Private Huddleston have been appointed Assistant
Commissioners at Heilbron and Kroonstad respectively.
