My contribution is: Burger Harry Spanier, KIA at Surprise Hill, and buried with military honours in Pretoria, with Pres. Kruger in attendance.
There's a nice write-up here, though I see no evidence in Reitz's account or elsewhere that Spanier was hit by a Boer bullet before being bayonetted:

The past is not dead. In fact, it's not even past.
