QUEEN'S SOUTH AFRICA MEDAL 1899, (type 3 reverse), - two clasps - Wepener, Relief of Ladysmith. 26 Tpr: W.Way. Colonial Scouts. Impressed. Top bar loose, nicely toned, good very fine.

26 Trooper William Way confirmed on nominal roll for Colonial Scouts.

Independent research reveals that William Way enlisted in the Colonial Scouts at Pietermaritzburg on 27Nov1899. He was 28 years of age, a solicitor's clerk and lived at Richmond. He discharged on 22Jan1900 with no reason given. The medal roll records that W.Way was awarded the QSA with clasp for Relief of Ladysmith only. There is also an entry on the roll for the clasp Natal but this has been crossed out.

With research.
