Morris | Thomas | | Lieutenant | He was killed in action at Springbokfontein, January 26th, 1902. First reported as missing, it was afterwards discovered that he had been killed. He was the only son of Thomas Morris of Coomb, Carmarthenshire, was born May 1879, and educated at Cheltenham. He entered the 6th Dragoon Guards from the 3rd Battalion South Wales Borderers in October 1899, passing second on the Cavalry List, and was promoted Lieutenant May 1900. Lieutenant Morris took part in the advance on Johannesburg and Pretoria, and the subsequent engagements around Belfast and Machadadorp and the advance to Barberton. The day he was killed he had been called on to surrender, and on scornfully refusing was shot down. Lieutenant Morris was buried by some Boers in a little farmyard at Oshock, Transvaal. His name was inscribed on the Eleanor Cross Memorial at Cheltenham College.
