Trying to find Arthur Ryde of Derbyshire Regiment on Bloemfontein Memorial but he's not there. Are there other War cemeteries?

Died 4th March 1900 on Queen's hospital ship Craddock... that name may not be correct.
Only number I have is 2134. Letter printed in a newspaper said he was buried in a corner of the cemetery.
Thanks.
