    --- "Nottingham Journal" 19 Sep 1900, page 6:
    REPORTED DEATH OF A POPULAR CRICKETER.
    Much consternation was aroused in Bridgewater yesterday when it became known that Lord Roberts had announced that Lieutenant H.T. Stanley, of the Imperial Yeomanry, had been killed in a skirmish with the Boers at Hexport, it being feared that the gallant officer is the son of Mr. E. J. Stanley, the member for Bridgewater Division, and a popular cricketer for Somerset County.

    --- "Evening Star" 20 Sep 1900, page 2:
    Lieutenant H.T. Stanley, of the Imperial Yeomanry, a son of Mr. E.J. Stanley, M.P., and grandson of Lord Taunton, who is reported as killed in action under General Clements's command, was a very steady cricketer. He never was given his "blue" for Oxford, but was frequently tried in the preliminary matches. Perhaps his best cricket was shewn when playing for Somerset, for whome he scored 127 last year against Gloucestershire.
    In Somerset he was extemely popular, and his cricketing parties at his father's place at Quantock Lodge will be pleasantly remembered by man. Mr. STanley, who is the member for the Bridgwater Division of Somerset, will recieve every sympathy from cricketers on the loss of his son. Lieutenant Stanley joined the West Somerset Yeomanry Cavalry in January, 1897, and was commissioned in the Imperial Yeomanry last February, serving in the 7th Battalion.

    --- "Gloucestershire Echo" 19 Sep 1900, page 3:
    Cricketers will receive with regret the news from South Africa, to hand yesterday, of the death in action of Mr. H.T. Stanley. Without ever taking a very high place, Mr. Stanley was a good batsman of the safe, steady school, and at various times did useful work for Somerset. Last year, though he scored only 367 runs in a dozen county matches, he played an innings of 127 against Gloucestershire on the Gloucester ground, going in first and staying till the score was up to 400. This was his first and only hundred in the county cricket. The deceased gentleman was the only son of Mr. E. J. Stanley, M.P. for the Bridgwater Division, and he went to the front with the West Somerset Yeomanry.

    --- "A Yeoman's Letters" by P.T. Ross, 1901:
    Death of Lieutenant Stanley.
    Monday, September 17th. There is a funeral to-day-an officer's-and we (the Composite Squadron) are stopping in camp for it, as it concerns us. So I will tell you all about it. Yesterday was Sunday, seldom a day of rest out here. We, the three squadrons of Yeomanry attached to Clements' force, were sent out early on a reconnaissance. Without any opposition we advanced in a westerly direction towards Boschfontein, almost the same way as on Monday last, for about four miles, the Devon and Dorset troops of our squadron being on the right, our Sussex troop on the left, the Roughriders (72nd I.Y.) in reserve, and the Fife Light Horse scouting ahead. The Fifes had reached the foot of a high grass-covered kopje, and were about to ascend it, when the enemy opened a hot fire on them, causing them to scoot for their lives, which they managed to do successfully. We then galloped up, dismounted, and opened fire on the hill-top, the Devons and Dorsets doing the same on our right, and the Fifes falling back on our left. Where the Roughs were we never knew, probably their officers did. Taking into account the absence of the Nos. 3, with the led horses, and one group of our troop being sent some distance to the left, we only numbered six and our officer, Mr. Stanley, well-known in the cricket world as a Somerset county man. Our led horses were in a donga in the rear. The position we occupied, I should mention, was at the base of a kopje opposite to that held by the Boers. We were sighting at 2,000, when our captain, Sir Elliot Lees, rode up and said he could not make out where the Devons and Dorsets who should have been on our right, were. As a matter of fact they had retired unknown to us. This the wily Boers had seen and quickly taken advantage of, for Sergeant-Major Cave, of the Dorsets, rushing up to us crouching down, told us to fire to our right front, where some trees were about three or four hundred yards away, and from which a heavy fire was being directed at us. Sir Elliot Lees then came up again from our left. Mr. Stanley, seeing the hot corner we were in, retired us about a dozen yards back to the deepest part of the donga, where our led horses were, and ordered the fellows with the horses to retire, and later, gave the command for us to do the same in rushes by threes. Meanwhile our bandoliers were nearly empty, and the Boers were creeping round to our right, which would enable them to enfilade our position. The first three retired, and we were blazing away to cover them, with our heads just showing as we fired over the top of the donga, when the man on my right said, "Mr. Stanley is hit," and looking at him, for he was close to me on my left, I saw he was shot through the head, the blood pouring down his face. Sir Elliot, the other man, and myself were the only ones left in the donga then, so the captain, taking hold of poor Stanley by his shoulders, and I his legs, we started to carry him off. As we picked him up, he insisted, in a voice like that of a drunken man, on somebody bringing his carbine and hat. "Where's my rifle an' hat? Rifle an' hat!" The third man took them and gat-I heard this later. You have no idea what a weight a mortally-wounded man is, and the poor fellow was in reality rather lightly built. On we went, stumbling over stones, a ditch, and into little chasms in the earth. Once or twice he mumbled, "Not so fast, not so fast!" The bullets buzzed, whistled, and hummed by us, missing us by yards, feet, and inches, knocking up the dust and hitting the stones and thorn bushes we staggered through. We, of course, presented a big mark for the Boers, and were not under any covering fire so far as I am aware. The captain, who is grit all through, soon found it impossible to carry the poor fellow by the shoulders, the weight being too much for him, so I offered, and we changed places, Sir Elliot taking his legs and on we went, pausing, exhausted, perspiring and breathless, now and again, for a rest. At last, turning to our left, we reached a little bit of cover, thanks to a friendly rise in the ground, and falling into a kind of deep rut with Stanley's body on top of me, I waited while the captain went to see if he could get any assistance. Presently he returned with a Somerset man; and a minute or so later a Fife fellow, a medical student, came up. The former and I then got him on a little farther. After a few minutes' deliberation, the captain said, reluctantly, "we must leave him." We all three asked permission to stay. To which Sir Elliot replied, "I don't want to lose an officer and three men. Come away, men!" We then moved the poor fellow into a cutting about two feet deep and three feet wide, and arranged a haversack under his head. As we loitered, each unwilling to leave him first, Sir Elliot thundered at us to come on, saying, "I don't know why it is, but a Yeoman never will obey an order till you've sworn at him." Then reluctantly we set off in single file, working our way back by the bank of a stream, and still under cover of the rise in the ground, a little way up which we found one of our Sussex men, with his horse bogged to the neck. Further on we paused a moment, and the Fife man, saying that he thought the wound was not mortal, suggested that it would be well for somebody to be with Stanley so as to prevent him from rolling on it, and then asked permission to return. My Fife friend had not seen what I had. He had only seen where the bullet went in, not where it came out. Seeing that the captain was about to give him permission, I said "Mr. Stanley is my officer, sir, and I have the right to go," and he let me. I gave one my almost-empty bandolier, and another my haversack, telling him it contained three letters for the post, and-if necessary, to post them. My rifle I had already thrown into a ditch at Sir Elliot's command. Then I worked my way back, hoping that I should not be shot before reaching him. I got there all right, and evidently unseen; lying down by him, I arranged my hat so as to keep the sun off his face, and cutting off part of my left shirt-sleeve, with the water from my bottle, used half of it to bathe his temples and wipe his bubbling, half-open mouth. The other I moistened, and laid over the wound. He was quite unconscious, of course, and his case hopeless. Once I thought he was gone, but was mistaken. The second time, however, there was no mistake.

    I waited by the brave man-who had been our troop leader for the last fortnight, and who had, I am sure, never known fear-for some time deliberating what to do. Shots were still being fired from somewhere in my vicinity, while our firing I had gloomily noted had receded, and finally ceased. By-and-bye, all was silent, then a bird came and chirped near me and a butterfly flitted by. At length, as it appeared to me useless to wait by a dead man, I determined to get back to camp, if possible, instead of waiting to be either shot in cold blood, or made a prisoner. After carefully going through all his pockets, from which I took his purse, watch, whistle, pipe, pouch, and notebook, and, attaching his glasses to my belt, having arranged him a little and laid my bloody handkerchief over his face, I got up, and worked my way along by the river bank till compelled to go into the open. I trusted to a great extent to my khaki on the dry grass, and daresay it saved me from making much of a mark; but spotted I was, and from the right and left the bullets came very thick and unpleasantly close. For about a mile I was hunted on the right and left like a rabbit. At first I ran a little, but was done, and soon dropped into a staggering walk. After a while I came on Dr. Welford and his orderly behind some rocks, just coming out, but when he heard my news he turned back, and, as I refused to use his horse, which he offered me, at my request rode off, and got potted at a good deal. Further on, he waited for me. He is a brick, our doctor; and when he learnt I was thirsty, and he saw my tired condition (the sun on my bare head had been most unpleasant) he offered me a drop of whisky and water, adding, "You'd better have it when we get round the bend of the kopje ahead." I thanked him, and said I thought it would be more enjoyable there. Enjoy it I did. Finally I reached the camp and told the captain the sad news, at the same time handing in the gallant officer's belongings. His watch was at 12.5 when I left him. Sir Elliot was most kind to me, and said I had acted gallantly, and he had told the major (commanding us). Then Major Browne came up, and he was also very complimentary. Of course, there was nothing in what I had done that any other man would not have done, and I told them so, especially as the example set by the captain made it impossible for a man to be other than cool. Lieutenant Stanley, who took command of us when we left Pretoria a fortnight ago, had soon become very popular, for he was a thorough sportsman, keen as mustard, quite unaffected and absolutely fearless. I feel pleased with myself for taking everything off the poor fellow before I left him; for when, late last night, the ambulance came in with him, the doctor's orderly told me that they found him stripped of his boots, gaiters, and spurs-which was all that were left worth taking.

    His Burial.
    "And far and wide,
    They have done and died,
    By donga, and veldt, and kloof,
    And the lonely grave
    Of the honored brave,
    Is a proof-if we need a proof."
    E. Wallace.

    Tuesday, September 18th. We buried Lieut. Stanley yesterday at mid-day, the sergeants acting as bearers, we Sussex men (of the dozen of us, two were with him at Eton and one at Oxford) composed the firing party, while the whole squadron, officers and men followed. About three-quarters of a mile from our present camp, in the garden of a Scotchman, named Jennings, by a murmuring, running stream, and beneath some willows, we laid him. By the side of the grave was a bush of Transvaal may, covered in white blossom, at the end were roses to come, and away back and front were the white-covered pear trees and pink-covered peach, perfuming the clear, fresh air, while on the sides of the babbling stream were ferns and a species of white iris. Sewn up in his rough, brown, military blanket, he was lowered to his last resting-place, the major reading the Burial Service.

    "-- Is cut down like a flower."

    He could not have been more than twenty-five. Then, "Fire three volleys of blank ammunition in the air. Ready! Present! Fire!" Again and again, and the obsequies of a brave officer and true English gentleman and sportsman were over.

    The Earl and Countess St. Germans, with the infant Lord Eliot, being expected to arrive at home yesterday, a meeting of the tenantry and inhabitants of St. Germans we held on Monday. A congratulatory address was drawn up and sent to Port Eliot to await his lordship's return; but it was thought advisable to postpone any demonstration of rejoicing for a short time, until, in fact, the young lord is christened, when it is intended to present his lordship with an address, and also some other mark of respect. The Earl and Countess arrived at St. Germans last evening, when the station was decorated with flags, and a number of the inhabitants cheered them heartily as they drove from the station. It was remarked that the Countess was looking extremely well. Lord Eliot was born in London on August 30th, and is therefore a month old. The christening ceremony will take place in a few days, when the whole village and Port Eliot will be en fete. The bells of the parish church rang out merry peals during yesterday in honour of the arrival of the noble Earl and Countess, and Mrs. Steed and Mrs. Palmer, occupiers of the farms at Markwell, had bonfires lighted on their ground, which could be seen for a distance of several miles.
