Officers
and men of other counties belonging to the Suffolk
Regiment who were killed or died of wounds or disease.
Note:
Colesburg and Rensburg are close to each other. On and around 6th
January 1900 the Suffolks were at Colesburg and ordered to occupy
a hill at Rensburg. They advanced up the hill in darkness and the
Boers were entrenched at the top. The Boers waited for them to get
within yards and then opened up with accurate rifle fire. This caused
confusion among the Suffolks, some ran back down the hill, others
stood around in the confusion getting picked off. Many were captured.
It seems they took a lot of officer casualties because the Boers
picked them off while they stood at the front of their men.

in action at Rensburg, 6th January 1900, age 46, commanding officer

which formed the key to their position round the town of Colesberg.
The Boers, who were apparently well informed of our intended attack,
opened fire and Lieut. Col. Watson was killed early in the fight.
A monument has been erected at Colesberg in memory of all those
who fell in this engagement.
