Framed Print of The Transvaal War: Sir George Colley's midnight ascent of Majuba Hill, February 26, 1881
The Transvaal War: Sir George Colley's midnight ascent of Majuba Hill, February 26, 1881. The British Army during the First Boer War. The Sketches published this week, being drawn by our Special Artist with the assistance of several eye-witnesses of this disastrous combat, show how the few British troops oil the summit of the steep mountain above Laing's Neck were overpowered by the greatly superior force of Boers, who had climbed up to the assault, on Sunday, Feb. 27, the last action of that unfortunate campaign. The best account of it is that given by the Standard correspondent, Mr. Cameron, who was taken prisoner by the Boers, and was permitted at once to return to the British Camp at Mount Prospect, in order to send medical relief to the wounded the same evening'. Facsimile of a sketch with portraits of Mr Cameron, special correspondent of the "Standard", and Major Fraser. Major General Sir George Pomeroy Colley was shot dead by a rifle bullet through the forehead. From "Illustrated London News", 1881.
