Checked the auction on Muller's pair and see they finished at R9,999 or over £600!

I have the unique rank of "Hospital Cook" QSA that has suddenly become very desirable
Looking for Salutries, Salootries and Veterinary Duffadars.
I collect primarily QSAs to Indian Recipients.

Good Evening Everyone...….

This jiffy bag arrived today with a QSA to the following, the first that I have seen and therefore the first in my collection.....

7926 CORL. FAR. & CAR. STH. G. KNOTT, A.S.C. - Tugela Heights, Orange Free State, Relief of Ladysmith, Transvaal, Laing's Nek

Of course it is Corporal Farrier and Collar Smith (?)….. Does anyone have any other idea or can they confirm my guess.....

I have not been able to find anything on him in Find My Past...…

Thanks in advance...….

Mike
