Citation
18th December, 1901
During the action with De Wet at Tygerskloof on the 18th December, 1901, this officer continued to attend to the wounded in the firing line, under a heavy fire at only 150 yards range, after he himself had been wounded, and only desisted when he was hit a second time, and, as it was first thought, mortally wounded.
