Le Gallais | Philip Walter Jules | | Lieutenant Colonel | He died November 6th, 1900, of wounds received in action near Bothaville. He was born August 1861, educated at Victoria College, Jersey, and entered the 8th Hussars from the 3rd or South Regiment (Royal Jersey Militia), April 1881, being promoted Lieutenant July the same year, Captain March 1888, Major April 1897, and brevet Lieutenant Colonel November 1898. He served in the Nile Expedition of 1897, receiving the medal with clasp; also in the Expedition of 1898, when he took part in the cavalry reconnaissance of April 4th, and the battles of Atbara and Khartoum. He was mentioned in despatches, LG May 24th and September 30th 1898, and received the brevet of Lieutenant Colonel, Fourth Class of the Order of the Osmanieh, and two clasps to his Egyptian medal. The day he was killed Lieutenant Colonel Le Gallais, ably assisted by Major Lean, had attacked with about 200 men a Boer Laager under De Wet over a thousand strong. Lieutenant Colonel Le Gallais's force had got possession of a small shed which was the centre of the Boer fire (one report states that "the bullets were flying like wasps"), and it was here that he was killed. His opponent, General De Wet, eulogises the gallant Le Gallais, as "without doubt one of the bravest English officers he had ever met". Lieutenant Colonel Le Gallais, as he expired, said, "Tell my mother that I died happy, as we got the guns". In this action six guns and a pom-pom and 114 prisoners were captured from the Boers. Field Marshal Earl Roberts in his despatch of November 15th, 1900 (LG February 8th 1901), reports the death of Lieutenant Colonel Le Gallais with deep regret: "a most gallant and capable leader, whose place it will be very difficult to fill". Again in his despatch, LG April 16th, 1901, Earl Roberts deeply regrets the death of Lieutenant Colonel Le Gallais, and adds that "he rendered brilliant service and gave every promise of rising to the highest rank as a cavalry leader".
