HowardA L HowardMajorHe was killed in action February 17th, 1901, at Evergreen, Eastern Transvaal. He was employed with the machine gun section, and was mentioned in General Lord Kitchener's despatch May 8th, 1901, for having been "repeatedly brought to his notice for acts of gallantry". Major Howard was awarded the DSO for his services. The following text is taken from Wilson's 'After Pretoria, the Guerilla War': "Up to the occupation of Pietretief the enemy's loss had been 282 men killed or wounded in these eastern operations, 56 prisoners, and 183 surrendered, while one 15-pounder, 462 rifles, 160,000 rounds of ammunition, 7,000 horses or trek oxen, 18,700 cattle, 155,400 sheep, and 1,070 waggons had been captured. There is, however, reason to fear that a good many of the cattle and sheep were recaptured by the enemy at various times, though a special corps, known as "Loxton's Horse," had been raised in Natal to carry off and secure the Boer stock. The British casualties up to Pietretief were 46 killed and 112 wounded. Among the killed was Major Howard of the Canadian Scouts, a particularly gallant officer, who was murdered by the Boers on the Swazi frontier. He was riding with his orderly a couple of miles ahead of his Scouts, when he was seen to fall into a Boer ambush. He surrendered, and with his orderly was deprived of his arms equipment. Then the horrified spectators saw the enemy shoot the two in cold blood and make off in hasty flight."
