| Hi Chrispacket .
No , But they did ride past the camp and told them what had happened , and that they would all be murdered !, there were two that had got into the bushes that took part in the R.D Defence and stayed there
till the next morning . I think they may have both been in the hospital at one stage , one was wounded , Beckett ( Assegai wound to stomach / abdoman) died through blood loss in the morning . The other being Pvt John Connolly who got back inside the defences after 5.00am on the 23rd Jan .
cheers 90th. |
