A worthy memorial, a place I would like to visit one day.

Not sure if this will be of any help?
I only photographed one plaque when there in 1981.

I salute Private Algernon Parker of the Cape Police who was mortally wounded during "a brisk little encounter with the enemy near Otto's Kopje" and died on 11 November 1899.

His name is recorded on this memorial.
