Note 377 — 1840.
Reading edition
Was recorded for distinguished conduct in the Kaffir war of 1846. Accompanying that portion of the corps which served at Gallipoli and Bulgaria, he was, on account of his experience and soldier-like deportment, appointed sergeant-major to the expedition. Through sickness his strong-built frame had become so weak and attenuated, that when the cholera seized him he was carried off in a few hours. He died on board the ‘Andes,’ when sailing for the Crimea.
