Slater. - Lieut. Sydney Arthur Slater, D.S.O., 57th Co. 15th Batt., I.Y., died of enteric at Kroonstad, O.R.C., Jan. 29th, 1901. He was the son of the late E.

He held a commission as a 2nd lieut. in the 3rd V.B. West Yorkshire Regt., but early in 1900 volunteered for active service with the I.Y. In March he was appointed lieut. in the 57th Company, and, proceeding to South Africa, served in the Cape and Orange River Colonies. With ten men, Lieut. Slater is stated to have made a clever capture of Boers in Bultfontein, and, in Sept., when attacked, he made an able defence of the place, and held the enemy at bay until relief arrived. He was mentioned in despatches, L.G., Sept. 10th, 1891, being granted the D.S.O., and received a letter of congratulation from F.-M. Earl Roberts. A tablet has been erected to Lieut. Slater’s memory in Giggleswick School.
