HoskierCommandant F HLieutenant ColonelHe was killed in action near Schoeman's Farm, Stormberg, February 23rd, 1900. He was educated at Eton and was a well-known Volunteer officer, having, it is stated, brought the corps which he commanded to a high state of efficiency. He held a certificate for proficiency in several subjects, and had obtained special mention in examinations in tactics, besides being qualified as an interpreter. In civil life Colonel Hoskier was a member of the Stock Exchange. At the outbreak of the war he went to South Africa at his own expense, and offered his services to Major General Sir W F Gatacre. Being accepted, he served with Brabant's Horse and Montmorency's Scouts till killed. He fell, shot in five places, the same day as Captain de Montmorency. HRH The Prince of Wales, the Honourable Colonel of the 3rd Middlesex Volunteer Artillery, in addressing the corps on March 4th, 1903, said "I should like to congratulate you on the numbers which you sent to South Africa, six officers and 1,114 rank and file. Alas! Colonel Hoskier was not among those who returned to share with his comrades the welcome home, and we all join in regretting the great loss which the regiment has sustained by the death of that gallant officer”.
