Notes
Content: Written on border: "Navy & Army illustrated, June 8, 1901" Printed on border: " 'Navy & army.' " "Colonel Bethune, 16th Lancers, commanding the Cape Cavalry Brigade, and the members of his staff. It will be remembered that it was Colonel Bethune who, in the early days of the war, raised the corps which was known as Bethune's Mounted Infantry. That corps has frequently done excellent service, and in a despatch [sic] of last November Sir Redvers Buller tesitfies that Colonel Bethune 'commanded it most efficiently throughout the campaign.' The Cape Cavalry Brigade is fortunate in its commander and in its staff."
