_THE FINAL ACCOUNTS_
_To the Editor of the ‘Indian Daily News.’_
SIR,—May I ask you to be good enough to publish for the benefit of the
subscribers to the Indian Mounted Infantry Corps (Lumsden’s Horse)
Fund a detailed account of the receipts and expenditure?
On behalf of myself, officers, and men of the corps, I desire to
tender our grateful acknowledgment to His Excellency Lord Curzon,
Honorary Colonel, not only for having sanctioned the raising of the
corps and for his patronage, but also for the very material assistance
he graciously gave us and for the interest he took in our operations
on active service.
I take the opportunity, at the completion of our campaign, again to
thank the public for the splendid manner in which they equipped the
corps for active service in South Africa and for the cordial way they
welcomed it back again. The public appreciation of their services to
the Army has been to the officers and men of Lumsden’s Horse ample
recompense for any hardships they may have endured. For myself I can
only repeat that I never wish to be associated with more gallant
comrades. I am indebted to General Sir E.R. Elles, Adjutant-General,
General Gaselee, Quartermaster-General, Surgeon-General Harvey,
Director-General I.M.S., and General Wace, Director-General of
Ordnance, for the assistance given in obtaining equipment for the
corps and facilitating its despatch.
More than special thanks are also due to Sir Patrick Playfair for the
great interest he has taken in the corps from start to finish, as well
as to the other members of the committee.—Yours, &c.,
D.M. LUMSDEN, Lieutenant-Colonel,
Commanding Lumsden’s Horse.

APPENDIX XI
_LUMSDEN’S HORSE TRANSPORT_
The following article is by Sergeant Stephens, of the Indian
Commissariat and Transport Department, attached to Lumsden’s Horse:
The Government of India at the last moment not sanctioning native
drivers for the corps, fifty Europeans had to be enlisted under the
same terms as those of trackers, receiving kit, equipment, &c. As
there was no time to pick and choose, the men were taken, if
physically fit, more by personal appearances than recommendations.
With the exception of a few, they worked remarkably well and never
complained of the hardships they had to endure while we were in South
Africa.
When each member joined the corps he was handed over a pair of ponies
or mules, also harness for same, with cart complete. The majority of
them had never driven or ridden a horse in their lives, so that the
breaking-in of horses and men was not an easy task. Of fifty pairs of
animals received for draught purposes not a pair was broken to
harness, and when the heavy breechen was placed on their backs they
did their best to kick it off, but the girths supplied by Government
were strong enough to keep that in place. Our next difficulty was to
put them together in carts. Immediately the curricle bar or iron
support rested on their backs they wanted to be off for their lives,
and in some instances got away and did a lot of mischief before they
came to grief, cart and all. Privates Hyde and Braine once trying to
stop a pair got severely hurt; Hyde putting his shoulder out, while
Braine got his head badly cut. Both were sent to the General Hospital
for treatment, but recovered in time to join B Company.
The Transport men were very willing, took a delight in their duty, and
worked hard from 7 A.M. to 6 P.M. daily, and at that rate we were able
to have the worst of the animals broken to harness before we left
Calcutta. At the same time, the men were improving daily in the care
and treatment of animals, and when the General Officer Commanding held
his inspection, every one of them was able to drive, or seemed to
think he could, so we had A Company’s Transport out for inspection.
After inspecting carts, animals, and drivers, the General expressed
himself pleased with the very ready way in which they had been got in
order, and stated that he thought we should get on well in Africa.
The men had not the slightest idea of what a muleteer was until they
got on board ship. Then the work started, and dirty work it was for
about two hours every morning. Even then there were no complaints. The
officer commanding the corps and the captain of the ship gave great
praise to the Transport men every day for having the cleanest deck.
The captain afterwards said that with Regular troops he had never seen
it better kept. They had to perform the same duties as the troopers,
the only difference being that they had extra work daily from 2 P.M.
to 4 P.M. dubbing and cleaning harness.
While on board ship the Transport of A Company was divided into four
sections, consequently four non-commissioned officers had to be made.
This was the first promotion in the Transport, and was given to those
who seemed to take most interest in their work. The names of men
promoted were Power, Palmer, Cullen, and Estabrooke. Power afterwards
worked up to sergeant, was a very good non-commissioned officer
throughout, and quite deserved the rank he held. Work on board ship
was the same daily, nothing fresh occurring till we landed at Cape
Town. That night carts had to be got ready, and the following morning
we had to take our own baggage to Maitland Camp. That was about the
worst day we had while in Africa. It was impossible to look to our
front—animals would not face the sand-storms—it was not sand, but
small stones beating against our faces, and our eyes were sore for
weeks after our first day at the Cape. It was very hard to harness the
Transport animals in carts; but after being about twenty-six days on
board ship, they had not much mind for bolting that first day. The
camp, when we got there, was knee-deep in sand. Maitland at that time
was a dirty hole, and we were pleased when we got our orders to shift.
But a few things happened during our stay there which we cannot
forget. The Government came on us, thinking we had too many carts, and
they had to be reduced by ten. So we handed our ten carts and ten
pairs of ponies to the Transport Officer, Cape Town, and, instead of
them, got thirty-eight pairs of mules, with leader harness complete,
to act as leaders for our remaining carts. That meant instead of two
ponies to a cart, as we left India, we had to put four ponies or
mules. This complicated matters a long time, for some of the drivers
could never manage four-in-hand, so had to be left with a pair only.
They said that two ‘donkeys’ (which they would insist upon calling
their chargers) were quite enough for them to look after. In the end,
everything turned out very well. We kept those animals spare, and
whenever any in the teams showed signs of fatigue, got lame, or
otherwise unfit, we had others to take their places.
The Transport Officer at the Cape did not think much of his bargain.
He could not get the Cape boys to make head or tail of our Indian
carts and harness. It was harder for them to put a pair of our ponies
in their cart than their own span of ten, which they could use as they
liked.
After receiving orders for the front with a light heart, every man
thought the minutes too long until he got an opportunity of
distinguishing himself. We were ordered to Bloemfontein, and everybody
was on the war-path at once. We railed to that station, which did not
do the animals any good, and on arrival there were ordered to join a
brigade at Deel’s Farm, about three miles beyond the town. Having to
draw our stores from Bloemfontein station prepared our transport and
drivers for the work which lay before them, and during our stay there
they got in excellent order.
The first day our Transport carts went out with spare ammunition for
the corps, nothing unusual occurred, and, in fact, all returned
disappointed, but this showed the ammunition drivers what they must
expect when going out again. All in charge of these carts were picked
men, being the best drivers with the best animals. They had to canter
and trot over rough country with eight boxes of ammunition, to keep in
touch with their corps, over hills or otherwise, and be always where
they were wanted; our carts were very handy, and could go where others
failed.
Next day was the well-remembered Ospruit fight, and the carts had a
narrow escape then. The enemy got their range, and the pom-poms
played round them for some time, a few of the shells landing between
the carts; but the drivers were just as easy as ever, and when
ordered to retire did it in excellent style, smoking and passing
jokes as the shells followed them up. Private Lowther, who was on
stretcher-bearer’s duty that day, will not forget what he called a
cool order. When the drivers were getting out of range one of their
hats was blown off, and Lowther, being on foot, was ordered to pick
it up. He looked twice, but went back and got it. Shells were a bit
thick, but he remembered he was a soldier. The day after the fight
we had to send a cart out to bring in Major Showers. Corporal Cullen
and Private Arthurton went with it on duty, Cullen corporal in
charge, Arthurton the driver. After finding the Major’s body, they
were joined by some Boers, who assisted to put the Major in the
cart, had a friendly chat with them, passed cigarettes and tobacco
round, and Cullen said when he came back to camp that there were
very few Boers among them, nearly all English-speaking and of a very
respectable class. They had very little to say regarding the fight
the previous day, but said they were sorry our Colonel was killed.
They had found some papers in the pockets of young Lumsden, whom
they took to be the Colonel.
We had most trouble with our carts and animals when night marching.
The ponies were excellent for draught purposes; the Cape mules did not
last nearly as well. If properly fed the ponies would have worked
throughout our stay in Africa; but they were often days without
anything but what they could pick when we got an hour’s halt. On one
occasion which I remember well they were thirty-six hours under
harness without food of any kind, and only watered once. People might
say, Why not oftener? Water was not procurable.
Another thing that came against us was the cunning Kaffir. He could
walk around at night, take the best of our animals, and have them
disfigured in such a way that nobody could recognise them the
following morning. We put up with this for a long time, until our
stock of spare mules ran short, and then we had to carry out the same
tricks as the remainder by doing unto others as they had done to us.
We were able to take to Pretoria every one of the carts with which we
left Bloemfontein. When we got there, everything, of course, was the
worse for wear, but complete in every other respect. If anything ever
frightened our Transport drivers it was the word ‘drift.’ You should
have seen their worried looks when they heard that there was a drift
ahead; but they braved everything, thinking that Pretoria would finish
all. But to our surprise when we got there we found out that the show
was only then starting. We had a little rest after the surrender,
being sent to a station ten miles off called Irene. While there the
Transport kept the horses of the corps well fed on oat-hay, which we
brought from all the farms within ten miles of the place. We remained
at Irene until August 1, and then got attached to a brigade going
after De Wet in the Rustenburg direction. We were on this march for
twenty-eight days without rest, which was the cause of killing all our
Indian ponies except twelve. The whole of that month’s march was a
dead pull for the Transport—some days it was up to the ankle in sand,
while next it was just the same in black sticky earth. We were not the
only lot that suffered; every unit experienced just the same. It took
us all our time to get our carts back to Pretoria. At the end of
August we were only a day in Pretoria before being ordered off again
on the march to Barberton. Things had to be got ready as quickly as
possible, and off we went on September 1 for another long trek. When
starting on this march we had to leave twelve of our carts in
Pretoria, and as many men of the corps had come down we reduced our
Transport. During the whole of this period we had very little time for
carrying out repairs to carts and harness. The saddles began to give
out in the leather, as they had not been repaired since we left
Calcutta except a stitch here and there. During our stay in Africa we
never had an animal suffer from sore back. This, we think, was due to
the excellent way in which the saddles were stuffed before leaving
Calcutta. Although newly received from the Ordnance Department, they
did not satisfy the Commissariat and Transport Sergeant-Major, who had
them stuffed to his own liking.
On the march to Barberton and back we had very bad weather, which
completely destroyed our gear, and, arriving at Pretoria for the third
time, we thought of getting it thoroughly repaired. We had done our
best, and, in fact, had all the saddles restuffed and lined in a very
short time, when orders were received for the corps to be disbanded.
The number of animals with which we left India was—Ponies, 100; mules,
5; total, 105. The five mules lasted throughout, but only eight ponies
lived to see the finish. Two of these, driven by Private Arthurton,
seemed to be in better condition at the finish than when they left
Calcutta. He took great care of his animals. Two others were in charge
of Driver Estabrooke. As he intended remaining in South Africa, the
Colonel presented him with his pair.
The whole of the carts and gear were handed over to the Ordnance,
Pretoria, before our departure, with three hearty cheers from
Lumsden’s muleteers.
APPENDIX XII
TOPICAL SONG
BY J. HENRY, TROOPER IN LUMSDEN’S HORSE
I
The long campaign is over,
And we are homeward bound;
We think about what’s waiting us on shore:
Of the dâks at country stations,
Of the evenings in the club,
And the pleasures of a civy rig once more.
CHORUS.
For the ration jam is sweet,
And the ‘bully’ beef is good,
And ‘Machonochie’ is nothing short of prime;
But give me, yes, oh, give me,
Oh, how I wish you would,
‘Moorghi’ cutlets and my peg at evening time.
II
We have often groused and grumbled,
But not a man would say
He’s sorry that he joined the good old corps;
And the longest marches seem now
But fair share of work and play,
When we know we’ve not to do them any more.
(Chorus.)
III
It really is annoying
When you march at break of day,
To find your moke has vanished from the line;
And you curse the stable picket,
And on your knees you pray
You may never see another ‘Argentine.’
(Chorus.)
IV
We’re very near the finish,
And in a week or so
We will scatter over India, hill and plain;
But when two of us foregather,
’Mid the clouds of smoke we blow
We’ll follow-Colonel Lumsden once again.
(Chorus.)

Transcriber’s Note
Errors in the text have been corrected where they can be reasonably
attributed to the printer or editor, or where the same word appears as
expected elsewhere. Inconsistencies in punctuation, particularly in the
Index, have been resolved.
In the very long table of cash contributions in Appendix VII, the
‘Carried Forward’ subtotals at the foot and head of each page have been
removed.
In Appendices II and X, wide tables have been divided into rearranged in
order to be more readily viewable in this media.
The book was bound with a short errata slip inserted prior to p. 1,
which has been moved to the end of the text, prior to the Index. The
changes have _not_ been made. The error noted on p. 384, line 13, for
‘E.J. Johnstone’ apparently had already been corrected, but shows as
‘C.H.M. Johnstone’ rather than 'Johnstone, C.H.'. The text is given as
printed.
Footnotes in the text have been renumbered consecutively for
consecutively. They have been gathered at the end of each chapter.
Footnotes in the tabular matter in the Appendices have been sequenced as
letters A through G, and follow the table to which they pertain.
In the list of men gazetted to the Regular Army on p. 365, 'Norton'
would seem to be A.E. Norton, of the West India Regiment.
The Index reference for Captain Chamney, indicating p. 379, is
incorrect. This probably refers to p. 349, where the Captain is
mentioned.
