Royston | William Royston | | Colonel Commandant | Died at Woodstock, Pietermaritzburg, April 6th, 1900. He served throughout the siege of Ladysmith, and was placed in command of one section of the defences. He was several times mentioned in despatches. Sir G White in his despatch of December 2nd, 1899, stated that "the services which Colonel Royston and the forces under his command have rendered to the State and Colony have been of the very highest value" and he was described as "a bold and successful leader" and "prompt and ready for any emergency". Colonel Royston was again mentioned in the despatch of March 23rd, 1900, in connection with the sortie from Ladysmith of December 7th, 1899, where his gallant behaviour is specially referred to, and finally Sir G White writes "I can only repeat the high praise which I had the pleasure to bestow on Colonel Royston in my despatch of December 2nd, 1899. He commanded Section D of the defences in an admirable manner" and "continued to the end to perform invaluable service" — "I trust that he may receive some suitable reward". Colonel Royston was again mentioned in despatches, LG, April 16th, 1901. A staff officer writes concerning him that he was "a very gallant soldier and his death was a great loss to the Natal Field Force".
