There he stood with the bullets whistling all round him while they climbed over. Later on as he was looking over the parapet a bullet struck him in the head and he died with a smile on his face and a cheery word for his men at the head of the advance”; and the Colonel: “If he had been spared I am confident he would have earned great distinction. I was not very near when the regiment made their most successful attack and all accounts tell of his coolness and dash, he is a great loss to us.” He was a keen sportsman and big game shot.

He was killed yesterday morning about 7 a.m., and was quietly buried in the afternoon.” He early showed a preference for the sculptor’s art, in which he made rapid progress, and in 1912, when under 18, exhibited his first work at the Royal Academy, “Elfreda,” a bust of his sister; and in 1914 he was again represented in the Academy, this time by an animal group, “True Foes Once Met are Joined till Death.” This represented an Indian elephant with his massive head and trunk crushing into the earth, as he kneels over him--a tiger--who, in his last agony, with claws extended, tears vainly at his huge antagonist. In the 1915 Royal Academy was the portrait bust of “Winnie,” considered by many who are entitled to speak with authority as showing high technical experience.

His noble death is spoken of with admiration by the officers and men of the regt. and by others. “Eye-Witness.” in his report of the battle published in the “Times” of 6 May, 1915, speaks of the gallantry of a Pathan battn.
