Military Cross 'For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty in reconnoitring a hostile redoubt. There were about eighty of the enemy patrolling round the redoubt, but he made a complete reconnaissance and brought back very valuable information. At one time a patrol of thirteen of the enemy appeared 20 yards away on one flank, but by good leadership and able control of his men he succeeded in evading them and completed his work unknown to the enemy. He showed great daring and resource.'
