| There has always been much more info on Secretan than many other Colonials , if anything knew was about it'd certainly be seen by many other full time historians , including the one who found it dont you think ???. 90th |

| This medal sold at DNW March 2012 for a Hammer price of £6800 os about £8200 after commission. I remeber at the time thinking it wasnt that well bid . Given the estimate it will be interesting to see what difference the letter from his brother makes to the valuation. With that it makes a great medal . I posted on here photos of his name on the Isandlwana NMP memorial shortly after the auction https://www.1879zuluwar.com/t5259-tpr-f-secretan-natal-mtd-police-kia-isandlwana?highlight=secretanIf anyone is going for it good luck!! |
