| Peter,
Just for clarity on this Terry is his surname, rather than a forename, so it is either going to be Terry, Astley Fellowes or Astley Fellowes Terry.

| Subject: Poor Astley Fri Jun 15, 2012 8:00 pm | |
| Hi John, I think Astley Fellowes Terry quite enjoyed himself in the 60th and liked having his photograph taken. Unexplainedly, Astley's role in the Zulu War was left out of the large volume "The South African Campaign, 1879" by Mackinnon and Shadbolt. There was no mention of him even serving in South Africa. So, evidently quite put out and demonstrating an immense amount of "pull"(possibly Masonic)---Terry had the publisher make a special edition of the same Mac and Shad in which he was now included and his efforts in escorting the captured king from the Ndaza krall to the Black Umvolosi as well as commanding two companies of the 3/60th were inserted in the text. Additionally he had his frontiospiece put in (see first photograph I inserted) and a photographic copy of Illustrated London News showing him guarding the sleeping king while in Zululand. I know this because I have Terry's personal copy of the Mac and Shad. If you will check all other copies that are out there (see page 347), including reprints, you will notice that poor Astley was omitted.

| Hi 90th, Not me on the ebay one. The top signed photo of Terry is the frontis for his personal copy of Mac and Shad. I have owned this book for nigh on 15 years. Do you happen to have the ebay number of the one you bid on? |

| A new acquisition. Major-General Astley Fellowes Terry wearing his 1879 clasp medal, and his insignia of a Knight of Grace of the Order of Saint John of Jerusalem. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Major-General A. F. Terry, circa 1890, but pre-1900. (John Young Collection) In 1900 Terry would receive the Cape of Good Hope General Service Medal with the clasp “Transkei” for his service in South Africa in 1880. So the photograph can be dated as prior to that year. N.B. In the past I mistakenly believed the photograph was that of my namesake Commissary-General John Young. However, through further research I am able to dispel this assumption. JY |
