 A company was raised from the 1st Battalion in South Africa before
the war; it fought at Talana Hill (October the 20th, 1899), was in the
Defence of Ladysmith, and later with Buller’s army until it arrived
at Lydenburg in October, 1900. After this it was continually engaged
in the Eastern Transvaal, until it joined the 25th Mounted Infantry in
October, 1901 (see below). This Company lost twenty-five killed and
thirty-three wounded during the war.
2nd BATT. M.I. A Company was raised from the 2nd
Battalion upon its arrival in Natal, which
was left outside Ladysmith, and, joining Buller’s army on the Tugela,
took part in the campaign for the Relief of Ladysmith with
Dundonald’s Mounted Troops. After the relief this Company joined
Gough’s Mounted Infantry, and accompanied Buller’s army up to
Lydenburg, being subsequently engaged in the Eastern Transvaal,
Zululand, and the Orange River Colony until the end of the war. The
wastage in personnel was such that only two officers and twenty-nine
others of the original company then remained, but the fact that
twenty per cent. of the original horses, received in October, 1899,
were still doing duty, constituted a notable record in horse
management.
3rd BATT. M.I. The 3rd Battalion contributed one section
to “The Rifles’ Company” of the 1st M.I.
(Vide 4th Battalion M.I.).
A second section, formed in December, 1899, fought with
Dundonald’s mounted troops in the Relief of Ladysmith,
subsequently joining Gough’s M.I. at Blood River Poort, where it was
severely handled and its commander, Mildmay, was killed. This
section, in October, 1901, was united with a third section raised in
1900, and joined the 25th M.I. in October, 1901 (see below), when
the strength was raised to a full company.
4th BATT. M.I. The 4th Battalion contributed a section to
“The Rifles’ Company,” under Captain
Dewar, which, together with the section of the 3rd Battalion, and the
two sections from the 3rd and 4th Battalions Rifle Brigade, formed
one of the four companies composing the celebrated 1st M.I.,
organised and trained at Aldershot under Lieutenant-Colonel E. A.
H. Alderson before the war. The “Rifles Company” was temporarily
detached, and, landing at Port Elizabeth in November, 1899, joined
the force under Major-General Sir William Gatacre, which was
defeated at Stormberg on December the 12th, where it was
mentioned for its gallant conduct in covering the retreat. The
Company was then attached to French’s Cavalry Division, and was at
the battle of Paardeburg, where Captain Dewar was killed, and was
also present at the surrender of Cronje on the 27th of February,
Majuba Day. It then rejoined the 1st M.I.; and took part in the battles
of Poplar Grove and Driefontein, and the entry into Bloemfontein
(10th of March). It was at the surprise of Broadwood’s Calvary
Brigade at Sannah’s Post (31st of March), where it behaved with
conspicuous gallantry, and it was at the relief of Wepener, and in the
fighting near Thabanchu.
The 1st M.I. were then allotted to Alderson’s Brigade with
Hutton’s[78] Mounted Troops, and took part in Lord Roberts’ advance
upon Pretoria on the 2nd May.
The Company, therefore, was present in the actions of Brandfort,
Vet River, Sand River, Kroonstadt, the Vaal River (27th of May), the
battle of Doornkop, near Johannesburg (28th–29th of May), the
actions at Kalkhoevel Defile, Six Mile Spruit (4th of June), and the
entry into Pretoria (5th of June). It was similarly engaged at the
battle of Diamond Hill (11th of June); in the fighting south-east of
Pretoria and at the action of Rietvlei (July the 16th); in the advance
to and operations round Middelburg; in the battle of Belfast (24th of
August, 1900); and in the march east from Dalmanutha, including
the assault of the almost impregnable position of Kaapsche Hoop
during the night of the 12th–13th of September.
From this time till the end of the war this Company was
continually marching and fighting in the Orange River Colony and
Cape Colony, pursuing De Wet, back again in the Transvaal, in
countless forays and skirmishes, in the saddle night and day. When
peace was declared it was at Vereeniging, whence it marched to
Harrismith, and was absorbed into the Rifle Battalion of M.I. formed
at that place.
The 4th Battalion also sent out two complete companies from Cork
early in 1901, which were employed in the Transvaal, and
subsequently joined the 25th M.I. in October of that year (see
below).
25th (THE KING’S On October the 18th, 1901, a complete
ROYAL RIFLE Battalion of Mounted Infantry[79] was
CORPS)
MOUNTED formed from the Regiment—an unique
INFANTRY distinction—and consisted of:—
BATTALION.
No. 1 Company 1st Battalion.
No. 2 Company 4th Battalion.
No. 3 Company 3rd Battalion.
No. 4 Company 4th Battalion.

The Battalion was concentrated at Middelburg in the Transvaal,

and was placed under the command of Major C. L. E. Robertson-
Eustace[80] until January, 1902, when he was succeeded by Major W.
S. Kays.[81]
The Battalion thus organised was composed of officers and
riflemen who had been in the field from the beginning of the war,
and were therefore tried and experienced soldiers. It joined
Benson’s[82] column at Middelburg, a column of which it was said
that no Dutchman dared sleep within thirty miles of its bivouac. The
ceaseless activity and success of Benson eventually decided Louis
Botha, the Boer Commander-in-Chief, to make a determined attempt
to destroy his force. To achieve this purpose he collected nearly 2000
men, and by a skilful combination of his troops attacked the column
while on the march near Bakenlaagte upon the 30th of October. By a
rapid charge he overwhelmed the rear guard, captured two guns,
killed Benson, and surrounded the column, but was eventually
beaten off. The 25th M.I. fought with a stubborn courage, and by
their sturdy gallantry kept the Boers at bay and gloriously upheld the
traditions of the Regiment, losing in the action eleven men killed,
five officers and forty-five men wounded.
Thus—stoutly fought out on both sides by mounted troops of this
especial type—ended a fight which has been described as unique in
the annals of war.[83] The spirit of the Riflemen will best be
understood from the lips of one of the wounded in this gallant fight,
who remarked that “they were content if they had done their duty,
and felt rewarded if their Regiment thought well of them.”
The Mounted Infantry Battalion of the Regiment ended its short
but brilliant career by taking part in all the great “drives” in the E.
Transvaal and N.E. of the Orange Free State, and was finally at
Greylingstad when peace was declared on the 1st June, 1902.
 Rifle Depot.

RIFLE DEPOT. The Depot, under the command of

Colonel Horatio Mends, was at Gosport
throughout the war. A narrative of the work of the Regiment at this
strenuous period would not be complete without grateful reference
to the splendid service of administration, training, and equipment,
so devotedly performed by the Colonel Commandant, his Staff, and
the Company officers generally of the Rifle Depot.
The Adjutant was five times changed, but the Quarter-Master,
Major Riley,[84] remained constant to his difficult duties throughout
the whole of this trying ordeal.
It is stated that 4470 recruits joined the Depot, were trained, and
passed to the various Battalions, while many thousands of Reservists
were mobilized, equipped, clothed, and drafted for duty.
The work of discharge at the end of the war was not less severe,
but there is no record of failure or of breakdown, and the success of
the admirable system of administration was universally
acknowledged.[85]
The Rifle Depot was moved back to Winchester on the 29th of
March, 1903, after nine years of exile at Gosport caused by the re-
building of the Barracks which had been destroyed by fire.
PART IV.
 A Retrospect.

The preceding pages will have shown that the Regiment from its
inception has possessed certain distinctive characteristics which are
pre-eminently those required for making Light Infantry and
Riflemen of the best type.
Raised in 1755, the Regiment, inspired by the genius of Henry
Bouquet, early displayed that strong individuality, that self-reliant
courage, and that ready initiative coupled with steady discipline,
which won from the intrepid Wolfe himself the proud motto of Celer
et Audax. In 1797, under the experienced command of Baron de
Rottenburg, the famous 5th Battalion (Rifles) was raised as a special
type of Light Troops. Thus the 5th Battalion of the Regiment, the
first Rifle Corps of the British Army, revived those special qualities of
the Royal Americans which had rendered the Regiment so renowned
in its earlier years, and were destined to win imperishable fame
throughout the Peninsular War.
After a long interval of peace the Regiment from 1836 to 1854
received a similar impetus at the hands of Molyneux and Dundas,
and reaped a rich harvest of lasting honour and glory upon the Delhi
Ridge by displaying the same supremely valuable characteristics
which had distinguished it in America and in Spain. Again, from
1861–1873, under Hawley’s commanding influence and inspiring
skill, the Regiment, through the 4th Battalion, opened up a more
rapid and elastic system of drill and tactics, a more intelligent
treatment of the soldier, and the betterment of his life in barracks, of
which the good effects are felt to-day not only in the Regiment but in
the Army at large. The qualities thus maintained for a century and a
half, have borne in later years abundant fruit, of which the stubborn
courage at the Ingogo fight, the calm discipline of the Warren
Hastings, the eager valour of Talana Hill, and the impetuous assault
up the slopes of the Twin Peaks are glorious examples.
 To the same special qualities was due the inspiration which
created the Mounted Infantry as a portion of the British Army, and it
is to the officers and men of the 60th that the inception and success
of that powerful arm is largely due.
Let the Riflemen of to-day, who read the deeds of their gallant
comrades of the past, remember that if they are to maintain the
traditions and increase still more the reputation of the famous Corps
to which they belong, it can only be by cultivating the same spirit of
ready self-sacrifice and unsparing devotion to duty, and by
developing the same prompt initiative, steady discipline, and
unflinching courage, which have ever been the secret of the
Regiment’s success.
Let each Rifleman also recollect that a distinguished Past is rather
a reproach than a glory unless maintained by an equally
distinguished Present, and developed, if possible, by an even more
distinguished future.

Foundation
Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without
widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission
of increasing the number of public domain and licensed works
that can be freely distributed in machine-readable form
accessible by the widest array of equipment including outdated
equipment. Many small donations ($1 to $5,000) are particularly
important to maintaining tax exempt status with the IRS.

The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws

regulating charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of
the United States. Compliance requirements are not uniform
and it takes a considerable effort, much paperwork and many
fees to meet and keep up with these requirements. We do not
solicit donations in locations where we have not received written
confirmation of compliance. To SEND DONATIONS or determine
the status of compliance for any particular state visit
www.gutenberg.org/donate.

While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states

where we have not met the solicitation requirements, we know
of no prohibition against accepting unsolicited donations from
donors in such states who approach us with offers to donate.

International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot

make any statements concerning tax treatment of donations
received from outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp
our small staff.

Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current

donation methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a
number of other ways including checks, online payments and
