Miller-WallnuttClaude CharlesMajorHe was killed in action at Wagon Hill, Ladysmith, January 6th, 1900. He was the only son of Mrs Miller-Wallnutt, Edinburgh, was born 1861, educated at Edinburgh Academy, and entered the 75th Foot from the Argyll and Bute Artillery Militia, 1881, being promoted Lieutenant 1882, Captain 1888, and Major 1898. He took part in the Egyptian Expedition, 1882, and was present at the battle of Tel-el-Kebir, receiving the medal with clasp, and the bronze star. He served in the Soudan in 1884, under Sir Gerald Graham, was in the battles of El Teb and Tamai (two clasps), and also took part in the Soudan Expedition up the Nile, in 1885, under Major General Earle (clasp). His next experience of active service was in the operations in Chitral in 1895, when he accompanied the relief force under Sir Robert Low, and was engaged in the storming of the Malakand Pass, receiving the medal with clasp. He took part in the operations on the North-West Frontier of India, 1897-98, was engaged with the Tirah Expeditionary Force, was present at the action at Dargai, being mentioned in despatches and receiving two clasps and the DSO. Major Miller-Wallnutt accompanied his battalion to South Africa in September 1899, and was in Ladysmith when war was declared. At Wagon Hill, he had come up in command of a company of Gordons, to reinforce the defenders at a critical moment. He was with Lieutenant Jones, Royal Engineers, and was killed, shot, it is believed, by the Boer General, de Villiers, who had planned, and was leading the attack, but almost at the same moment a sapper shot de Villiers through the head. The author of "The Great Boer War" describes the stalwart Miller-Wallnutt as "a man cast in the mould of a Berserk Viking". He was mentioned in despatches, LG, February 8th, 1901.
