From the next City Coins auction, November 2020

ABO (Burger J.C. Reyneke)

Jacobus Reyneke, a clerk in the Christiana Magistrates Office, joined the Bloemhof Commando under Commandant Tollie de Beer, and saw action at Modder River, Magersfontein, Honingnestkloof and Rooiwal. He was one of the men captured at Schweizer Reneke.

At some stage he was Acting Magistrate at Christiana (reflected in the PoW Register). He was held in Umbilo Camp, and not sent overseas.
