Hereis remained for over a week, and during that time, at the suggestion of Captain Slade of E/B, who was acting as Galloper to the Brigadier, the smooth-bore guns where handed over to him to be formed into a battery. As section commanders he had two gunner subalterns who were serving with the Ordnance Transport, and one subaltern from the 66th. None-commissioned officers from E/B provided nos 1, and volunteers from the66th and gunners. At last, on the afternoon of the 26 July, information was received that the Afghans where making for the Maiwand Pass some few miles distant. Burrows decided to march against them at once, hoping to break up the advanced troops before they could reach them fromthe main body. Early on the 27th the force moved off, but it was not until after 10am that there was any sign of the Afghan Army. Horseman where then seen moving across the front, and Lieut. Maclaine dashed out with a section and open fire. He was followed by the cavalry and another section, which came into action about half a mile further back. On this last a line was gradually formed, with the guns in the centre, two Battalions on the right, one on the left. For half and hour or so nothing occurred to disclose the fact there was little force facing the Afghan main body, for the heat haze, mirage, and dust prevented any accurate estimate of the enemies's strength being made. Then their artillery began to come into action, until eventually the fire of 30 gunswas concentrated on the British line. For two hours this artillery duel continued while the Afghan cavalry and infantry endeavoured to workround the flags, and then an incident occurred which was to have fatal effect. The smooth-bore battery had no ammunition wagons and when itrang short of ammunition Captain Slade ordered it back to the reserveto get what was left there. The retirement of the guns was followed by a general development of the enemy's attack, under which the battalion on the left, next to which the smooth-bores had been, was borne back, mixed up with swarms of Ghazis, upon the guns E/B. The gunners, whohad borne the brunt of the Afghan fire throughout, made a gallant stand, until Captain Slade gave the order to limber up. Fortunately the limbers and detachment horses where formed up, according to the drill of the period, only ten yards from the trails, so there was no delay, and the two of the sections got safely away. After this brief outline we can turn to Captain Slade's own account. It was addressed to CaptainSaward, who had only left E/B a year before on appointment to the staff, and was now holding the office of D.A.A.G., R.A in India. He was thus very well placed to ensure the true story of the battery's action becoming known, and we may assume that this was in Captain Slade's mind when he wrote. The letter was certainly looked upon as of importanceby Saward, for he kept it carefully until his death, and then left directions for its preservation as a historical document. It has been handed over to the Institution. Camp, Kokeran 9th Sept My dear Saward, The 27th July was certainly an unfortunate one for the British Arms - but I think when the truth is known Gunners will be found to have done their duty. Nothing cd have been steadier in my opinion done the behaviour of both NC Officers and men of E/B both in the action and in the retreat, & and I have already brought to the notice of Lt Genl Comdg the distinguished and conspicuous conduct of five or six of the men, & I trust if you can further their interest that you will do so, as considering the panic stricken state of nine out of every ten individuals present it was all the more praiseworthy on their part. Sergt Major Paton's conduct was everything to be desired, his conduct under a very heavy fire was as cool and collected as if on parade - & and in the retreat he stuck by me and assisted me most efficiently during the whole night. Sergt Mullane I was in hopes wd have got the VC, but unfortunately I could not collect sufficient evidence, but his behaviour was most gallant, as when I gave the order to limber up, he ran back under heavy fire & to within some 15 yards of the enemy's infantry & picked upone of our own wounded men (who unfortunately was then dead) & and placed him on the limber. Corporal Thorogood, Trumpeter Jones, & Gunner Collis, are also mentioned for individual acts, so I trust they maybe rewarded within the Distinguished Conduct Medal. You will have seen the various accounts in the papers of the action, but I wd not pin my faith to the accuracy - but wd be inclined to form my opinion fr the official Account. Maclaine opened the ball by galloping out to the left front & coming into action on the enemy's right at a range of about 1700 yds & in place of withdrawing him, we shd have moved up to his position, as it was he was withdrawn & and formed up with the battery in the centre of the line - in echelon of divisions. For three hours, we were exposed to a very heavy artillery fire, and our horses and carriages suffered greatly, almost all our men were killed by artillery fire, in fact I don't know of any individual being killed by infantry fire, two or three were wounded by sabre cuts when we were retiring, and oneman had his left arm smashed by a Snider bullet. The enemy had to advance a distance of about 600 yds & and during this time were exposed to a very heavy fire of both musketry & and artillery but tho they fellin hundreds they were not to be deterred - and poor Maclaine waited amoment too long and lost his guns - they were within 15 yds of us when I limbered up - besides being in our rear. I then formed closed interval & and retired to a position about 400 yds back where I came into action again to cover the retreat. Owing to the artillery fire being so heavy I had to leave 67 horses dead or severely wounded on the fieldbeside three wagons completely disabled. Poor Osborne was shot dead just as we were limbering up to retire. Black-wood was wounded in the thigh early in the day and never came back to the battery, & is supposed to have been killed in the garden with the 66th. Sergt Wood of No 4 was shot dead whilst laying the gun. Gunners Swinnerton, Roberts, Br Lowe, Collar - Maker Cumings, Gr George Smith, Wheeler Dix-Drivers Grey, Istead, Webster, Richard Jones, Loughlin Macalister, Mathewman, Mac-donald, Dewley killed. Of the men who were wounded I think you know - Mangan - Edwards lost his left arm, Sergt Burridge, Sergt Guffin, Br Clarke. Yours very truly John R Slade Estimate £10000.00 - £15000.00

Nothing cd have been steadier in my opinion done the behaviour of both NC Officers and men of E/B both in the action and in the retreat, & and I have already brought to the notice of Lt Genl Comdg the distinguished andconspicuous conduct of five or six of the men, & I trust if you can further their interest that you will do so, as considering the panic stricken state of nine out of every ten individuals present it was all the more praiseworthy on their part. Sergt Major Paton's conduct was everything to be desired, his conduct under a very heavy fire was as cool and collected as if on parade - & and in the retreat he stuck by me and assisted me most efficiently during the whole night. Sergt MullaneI was in hopes wd have got the VC, but unfortunately I could not collect sufficient evidence, but his behaviour was most gallant, as when Igave the order to limber up, he ran back under heavy fire & to withinsome 15 yards of the enemy's infantry & picked up one of our own wounded men (who unfortunately was then dead) & and placed him on the limber. Corporal Thorogood, Trumpeter Jones, & Gunner Collis, are also mentioned for individual acts, so I trust they maybe rewarded within the Distinguished Conduct Medal. You will have seen the various accounts in the papers of the action, but I wd not pin my faith to the accuracy - but wd be inclined to form my opinion fr the official Account. Maclaine opened the ball by galloping out to the left front & coming into action on the enemy's right at a range of about 1700 yds & in place of withdrawing him, we shd have moved up to his position, as it was he was withdrawn & and formed up with the battery in the centre of the line- in echelon of divisions. For three hours, we were exposed to a veryheavy artillery fire, and our horses and carriages suffered greatly, almost all our men were killed by artillery fire, in fact I don't knowof any individual being killed by infantry fire, two or three were wounded by sabre cuts when we were retiring, and one man had his left arm smashed by a Snider bullet. The enemy had to advance a distance of about 600 yds & and during this time were exposed to a very heavy fire of both musketry & and artillery but tho they fell in hundreds they were not to be deterred - and poor Maclaine waited a moment too long andlost his guns - they were within 15 yds of us when I limbered up - besides being in our rear. I then formed closed interval & and retired to a position about 400 yds back where I came into action again to cover the retreat. Owing to the artillery fire being so heavy I had to leave 67 horses dead or severely wounded on the field beside three wagonscompletely disabled. Poor Osborne was shot dead just as we were limbering up to retire. Black-wood was wounded in the thigh early in the day and never came back to the battery, & is supposed to have been killed in the garden with the 66th. Sergt Wood of No 4 was shot dead whilstlaying the gun. Gunners Swinnerton, Roberts, Br Lowe, Collar - Maker Cumings, Gr George Smith, Wheeler Dix-Drivers Grey, Istead, Webster, Richard Jones, Loughlin Macalister, Mathewman, Mac-donald, Dewley killed. Of the men who were wounded I think you know - Mangan - Edwards lost his left arm, Sergt Burridge, Sergt Guffin, Br Clarke. Yours very truly John R Slade

:: Lot 1012:: An outstanding and important group of decorations and medals, to Major General Sir J R Slade KCB, a survivor of Maiwand, consisting of KCB (Mil) 1907, a Diamond Jubilee Medal (1897 Col), a 1902 Coronation Medal, a 1911 Coronation Medal (Generals), an Afghan Medal 1878-80, with Kandahar bar (Capt RHA), an Italian Medal Campagne de Africa Bar Campagne 1895-96 (Col), a Knight Commander Order of St Maurice and St Lazarus (neck badge and sash), a Grand Cross of the Crown of Italy (neck badge brass star and sash), and a Knight Commander neck badge and a breast star of the Order of the Crown of Italy. Major General Slade's military career is as listed :- 1861 commissioned Royal Artillery 1875 promoted to Captain, Royal Horse Artillery 1878 et seq - Bazar Valley Expedition (Afghanistan) as Adjutant to Samuel Browne, Peshawar Valley Expedition (at Girishik MID) Commanded E Battery RHA at Battle of Maiwand 27 July 1880 where he was nicknamed Jonnie of Maiwand, Siege of Kandahar:- Brevet Major C B 1881 Transvaal Campaign (death of Prince Imperial) 1887 Military Attaché, British Embassy Rome 1895/96 Attached to general Baldisera's staff in Abyssinia with Italian troops to relieve of Adigraf-King Humbert awarding him Italian/African war medal and creating him Knight Commander of the Order of St Maurice Stg Lazarus and the Grand cross of the crown of Italy 1897 et seq commanded NE district (York), Ireland 1899 promoted Major General 1902 GOC Egypt 1905 Retired ADC to Queen Victoria, King Edward VII and King George V. Gentleman usher to King George V. Died at Craven Lodge, Southampton. Buried at Ryde Eldest son of General Sir Marus Slade, by his marriage with Charlotte daughter of Hon. Andrew Ramsay (younger son of the eighth Earlof Dalhousie) With documents on being appointed KCB 1907, letters regarding his mention in dispatches for the Afghan campaign, and letters appointing him Miliary Attaché Military Observer to the Italian Campaign of 1896 See front cover colour & other illustrations An extract from the History of the Royal Artillery 1860-1914, Vol III :- ..... Hereis remained for over a week, and during that time, at the suggestion of Captain Slade of E/B, who was acting as Galloper to the Brigadier, the smooth-bore guns where handed over to him to be formed into a battery. As section commanders he had two gunner subalterns who were serving with the Ordnance Transport, and one subaltern from the 66th. None-commissioned officers from E/B provided nos 1, and volunteers from the66th and gunners. At last, on the afternoon of the 26 July, information was received that the Afghans where making for the Maiwand Pass some few miles distant. Burrows decided to march against them at once, hoping to break up the advanced troops before they could reach them fromthe main body. Early on the 27th the force moved off, but it was not until after 10am that there was any sign of the Afghan Army. Horseman where then seen moving across the front, and Lieut. Maclaine dashed out with a section and open fire. He was followed by the cavalry and another section, which came into action about half a mile further back. On this last a line was gradually formed, with the guns in the centre, two Battalions on the right, one on the left. For half and hour or so nothing occurred to disclose the fact there was little force facing the Afghan main body, for the heat haze, mirage, and dust prevented any accurate estimate of the enemies's strength being made. Then their artillery began to come into action, until eventually the fire of 30 gunswas concentrated on the British line. For two hours this artillery duel continued while the Afghan cavalry and infantry endeavoured to workround the flags, and then an incident occurred which was to have fatal effect. The smooth-bore battery had no ammunition wagons and when itrang short of ammunition Captain Slade ordered it back to the reserveto get what was left there. The retirement of the guns was followed by a general development of the enemy's attack, under which the battalion on the left, next to which the smooth-bores had been, was borne back, mixed up with swarms of Ghazis, upon the guns E/B. The gunners, whohad borne the brunt of the Afghan fire throughout, made a gallant stand, until Captain Slade gave the order to limber up. Fortunately the limbers and detachment horses where formed up, according to the drill of the period, only ten yards from the trails, so there was no delay, and the two of the sections got safely away. After this brief outline we can turn to Captain Slade's own account. It was addressed to CaptainSaward, who had only left E/B a year before on appointment to the staff, and was now holding the office of D.A.A.G., R.A in India. He was thus very well placed to ensure the true story of the battery's action becoming known, and we may assume that this was in Captain Slade's mind when he wrote. The letter was certainly looked upon as of importanceby Saward, for he kept it carefully until his death, and then left directions for its preservation as a historical document.

Nothing cd have been steadier in my opinion done the behaviour of both NC Officers and men of E/B both in the action and in the retreat, & and I have already brought to the notice of Lt Genl Comdg the distinguished and conspicuous conduct of five or six of the men, & I trust if you can further their interest that you will do so, as considering the panic stricken state of nine out of every ten individuals present it was all the more praiseworthy on their part. Sergt Major Paton's conduct was everything to be desired, his conduct under a very heavy fire was as cool and collected as if on parade - & and in the retreat he stuck by me and assisted me most efficiently during the whole night. Sergt Mullane I was in hopes wd have got the VC, but unfortunately I could not collect sufficient evidence, but his behaviour was most gallant, as when I gave the order to limber up, he ran back under heavy fire & to within some 15 yards of the enemy's infantry & picked upone of our own wounded men (who unfortunately was then dead) & and placed him on the limber. Corporal Thorogood, Trumpeter Jones, & Gunner Collis, are also mentioned for individual acts, so I trust they maybe rewarded within the Distinguished Conduct Medal. You will have seen the various accounts in the papers of the action, but I wd not pin my faith to the accuracy - but wd be inclined to form my opinion fr the official Account. Maclaine opened the ball by galloping out to the left front & coming into action on the enemy's right at a range of about 1700 yds & in place of withdrawing him, we shd have moved up to his position, as it was he was withdrawn & and formed up with the battery in the centre of the line - in echelon of divisions. For three hours, we were exposed to a very heavy artillery fire, and our horses and carriages suffered greatly, almost all our men were killed by artillery fire, in fact I don't know of any individual being killed by infantry fire, two or three were wounded by sabre cuts when we were retiring, and oneman had his left arm smashed by a Snider bullet. The enemy had to advance a distance of about 600 yds & and during this time were exposed to a very heavy fire of both musketry & and artillery but tho they fellin hundreds they were not to be deterred - and poor Maclaine waited amoment too long and lost his guns - they were within 15 yds of us when I limbered up - besides being in our rear. I then formed closed interval & and retired to a position about 400 yds back where I came into action again to cover the retreat. Owing to the artillery fire being so heavy I had to leave 67 horses dead or severely wounded on the fieldbeside three wagons completely disabled. Poor Osborne was shot dead just as we were limbering up to retire. Black-wood was wounded in the thigh early in the day and never came back to the battery, & is supposed to have been killed in the garden with the 66th. Sergt Wood of No 4 was shot dead whilst laying the gun. Gunners Swinnerton, Roberts, Br Lowe, Collar - Maker Cumings, Gr George Smith, Wheeler Dix-Drivers Grey, Istead, Webster, Richard Jones, Loughlin Macalister, Mathewman, Mac-donald, Dewley killed.

Here is remained for over a week, and during that time, at the suggestion of Captain Slade of E/B, who was acting as Galloper to the Brigadier, the smooth-bore gunswhere handed over to him to be formed into a battery. As section commanders he had two gunner subalterns who were serving with the OrdnanceTransport, and one subaltern from the 66th. None-commissioned officers from E/B provided nos 1, and volunteers from the 66th and gunners. At last, on the afternoon of the 26 July, information was received thatthe Afghans where making for the Maiwand Pass some few miles distant.Burrows decided to march against them at once, hoping to break up theadvanced troops before they could reach them from the main body. Early on the 27th the force moved off, but it was not until after 10am that there was any sign of the Afghan Army. Horseman where then seen moving across the front, and Lieut. Maclaine dashed out with a section andopen fire. He was followed by the cavalry and another section, which came into action about half a mile further back. On this last a line was gradually formed, with the guns in the centre, two Battalions on the right, one on the left. For half and hour or so nothing occurred to disclose the fact there was little force facing the Afghan main body, for the heat haze, mirage, and dust prevented any accurate estimate ofthe enemies's strength being made. Then their artillery began to comeinto action, until eventually the fire of 30 guns was concentrated onthe British line. For two hours this artillery duel continued while the Afghan cavalry and infantry endeavoured to work round the flags, and then an incident occurred which was to have fatal effect. The smooth-bore battery had no ammunition wagons and when it rang short of ammunition Captain Slade ordered it back to the reserve to get what was left there. The retirement of the guns was followed by a general development of the enemy's attack, under which the battalion on the left, nextto which the smooth-bores had been, was borne back, mixed up with swarms of Ghazis, upon the guns E/B. The gunners, who had borne the bruntof the Afghan fire throughout, made a gallant stand, until Captain Slade gave the order to limber up. Fortunately the limbers and detachment horses where formed up, according to the drill of the period, only ten yards from the trails, so there was no delay, and the two of the sections got safely away. After this brief outline we can turn to Captain Slade's own account. It was addressed to Captain Saward, who had only left E/B a year before on appointment to the staff, and was now holding the office of D.A.A.G., R.A in India. He was thus very well placedto ensure the true story of the battery's action becoming known, and we may assume that this was in Captain Slade's mind when he wrote. Theletter was certainly looked upon as of importance by Saward, for he kept it carefully until his death, and then left directions for its preservation as a historical document. It has been handed over to the Institution. Camp, Kokeran 9th Sept My dear Saward, The 27th July was certainly an unfortunate one for the British Arms - but I think when the truth is known Gunners will be found to have done their duty.
