Scheepers | Gideon J | | Commandant | Scheepers was born in 1878 near Middleburg. In 1894 or 1898, he joined the Staatsartillerie as a heliograph operator. He was seconded to the Free State Artillery to help develop their system of communications. He led General de Wet's scouts during the Boer War. His area of operation was the Brandwater Basin. In 1900 he was in the Transvaal and undertook attacks against the British lines of communications. He re-entered the Cape Colony in 1901 and operated around Aliwal North and Graaff-Reinet. His hope of starting a revolt in the Cape came to nothing. His commando reached Mossel Bay. After destroying local property, he withdrew to the Ladismith district. He was captured in October 1901. He was charged with offences including murder, flogging a British subject, placing prisoners in the firing line, etc. A guilty verdict resulted in his execution at Graaf-Reinet on 18 January 1902. He was ill on the day of his execution and had to be tied to a chair. | Boer Forces |
