Sgt. James Tatton with a “cow gun” (6 inch howitzer) was attached to the Mounted Infantry Company of The Buffs in the Eastern Transvaal from mid-1900 and is mentioned by name in: “With The Buffs in South Africa” by Lt. Col. J.B. Backhouse. The incident that probably led to the award of Tatton’s DCM took place on 19 November 1900 during Gen. Ben Viljoen’s attack on Balmoral (p 67 of above): “The 6-in howitzer, the only gun in camp, ably handled by Sergeant Tatton, RGA, did excellent work. One shell placed on South West Hill, soon after it was captured, killed two Boers and wounded three others, but failed to burst, or it would have done more damage. Another shell put one of the Boer guns out action, and another obliged the pom-pom to retire. In all 48 shells were fired in various directions during the six hours the attack lasted, and to those who know what a howitzer of this size is like, the hard work can be imagined.” On the night of 18 May 1901 a party of Boers tried to cross the railway near Balmoral. On the first shot being fired at them, the shell burst in the howitzer and blew it to bits. Two gunners (including Tatton’s brother) were killed and Sgt. Tatton and 9 more were injured. He was Mentioned in Despatches in the London Gazette of 10 September 1901 and the award of the DCM was published in the London Gazette of 27 September 1901. During WWI Tatton must have served in the United Kingdom, as his MIC confirms the award of the single BWM. Contact marks on earlier awards and KSA suspender wobbly. An interesting group with medals from 4 monarchs. Sold with copies of QSA & KSA roll pages, WWI MIC as well as relevant pages from “Buffs” History

QSA (1) CC to Stre Kpr W.E. Mellett CC D.D

The Pioneer column entered into Mashonaland in 1890. Not finding the expected riches there they looked at Matabeleland and volunteers were called. After the Matabeleland wars were over life was hard which with oppressive laws and drought and disease made it harder. The Ndebele Rose in revolt again volunteers were called one of which was W.E. Mallett. The effected warriors took refuge in the Mambo Hills. The relief force Laagered at the base of Mambo Hills, one of the sentries was Ser Maj Mallett who shot one of the Impi’s. They held their position till the revolt was over.

His Cape Gen Service medal with Bechuanaland bar awarded for service between December 1896 to July 1897 was at the time of a uprising as 1000’s of native livestock was culled because of a Rindepest outbreak. The local tribes joined forces with the final action at Langberg where the rebels were killed or surrendered.

On 3 December 1900 at Buffelspoort a 500 strong Boer commando under De la Rey and Smuts made a determined attack on the first half of a straggling British convoy bound for Rustenburg. This first section, numbering 138 waggons and occupying a mile and a half of road, was preceded by 70 men of the West Yorkshires and two guns of the 75th Bty, RFA, with an escort of 21 men of the Yorkshire Lt Infy. Another weak company of the West Yorkshires formed the rear-guard. After stiff fighting, lasting virtually the whole day, the Boers moved on, having obtained all they wanted: 138 waggons burnt or captured and more than 1800 oxen. The British losses amounted to 15 men killed, 1 Officer and 22 men wounded as well as 1 Officer and 73 men taken prisoner. The Boer losses were slight: 2 men killed and 7 wounded. Pte. Evans was wounded in the engagement. Sold with copied pages from QSA roll & SAFF Casualty Roll, “Times” & “Official” Histories and WO24 “South African Surrenders”.

That is a very fast turnaround to be sold twice in the month.

ALL the TG QSAs in the Kaplan sale are ex City Coins 68.

The only difference is the reserve is much higher.

Extracts from B85, 15 Nov 17, which bears a strong similarity to B84. On a the few I have checked, the reserve on unsold medals has not changed. The DCM has dropped by R5,000.
