A Rough Time for the Imperial Yeomanry : A Scouting Incident near Derdeport. 1900.

For Sale is a Full Page removed from "The Graphic, September 1st, 1900," showing a Facsimile of a sketch by C. E. Fripp, R.W.S., called "A Rough Time for the Imperial Yeomanry :  A Scouting Incident near Derdeport."

Our special artist writes :- "A scouting party on crossing a drift found suspicions entertained as to the dangerous character of a Kopje verified, for twenty Boers rose from the rocks as close as eighty yards and opened a terrific fusilade. The three men and the officer took shelter under the banks of the stream, but one poor fellow was badly hit and another slightly.  With proper foresight six men had been left to cover the advance, and these replied to the enemy's fire.  The party in the stream then crawled away, and abandoning their horses and leaving the severely wounded man at his own request, were fortunate enough to escape."

Condition is Very Good.
