Pair: Major K. E. Aitken, King’s Own Yorkshire Light Infantry, attached Leicestershire Regiment British War and Victory Medals (Major K. E. Aitken.) nearly extremely fine (2) £140-£180 --- Kenneth Edmonstone Aitken was born in Richmond, Surrey, on 6 July 1882. Educated at Berkhamsted School, he passed the University of London matriculation examination at age 16 and won the St. Andrews Entrance Science Scholarship at University College in the process. Taking employment as surveyor with the Federated Malay States Railways from 12 May 1913 to 30 August 1914, he returned to England after his employment was suspended due to the War and enlisted in the Inns of Court Officer’s Training Unit. Appointed to a commission in the 12th Battalion, King’s Own Yorkshire Regiment, he served in France from 3 October 1917. Gassed and admitted to hospital on 13 May 1918 near Étaples, he was granted three weeks’ sick leave before returning to the Western Front attached 11th Battalion, Leicestershire Regiment, with whom he continued to serve post-Armistice as part of the British Army of the Rhine. Relinquishing his commission on 26 October 1920, Aitken returned to a family coming to terms with the loss of a younger brother at the gateway to Baghdad on 4 August 1919: ‘Island Officer killed by Sepoy. Mr. Charles Aitken, of Inglefield, Totland Bay, has received the following letter from Col. W. Capper, Controller of Officers’ Casualties at the War Office:- ‘I am directed by the Military Secretary to inform you that a cable, dated 15th. inst., has been received at the War Office from the base at Basra stating that a Court of Enquiry held to investigate the death of your son, Captain (Acting Major) Archibald Bruce Aitken, Royal Engineers, who has been reported to you as ‘killed in action’ on the 4th August, 1919, facts have been elucidated which now show that his death was caused by a Sepoy of the 9th Company, 2nd Sappers and Miners, who ran amok on 4th August, 1919… Capt. Aitken acted in the bravest possible manner to meet the emergency and in trying to save the lives of others, lost his own.’ Taking employment as a civil engineer in Argentina, Aitken clearly struggled to adjust to post-War life. Returned to the south coast of England, his story was later published in The Yorkshire Post on 13 December 1932: ‘Kenneth Edmonstone Aitken (50), believed to be a retired Major, and living at Duncan Road, Southsea, was found dead in the garden of the house yesterday, with a bullet wound in his head. He was dressed only in his pyjamas and dressing gown. A fully loaded six-chambered revolver was on the ground nearby. One bullet had been fired. Mr. Aitken is believed to have served in the Yorkshire Light Infantry. After he retired from the Army he held a post for some time as railway engineer in South Africa (sic) and Spain. He was a bachelor and had lived for about five years with his mother at Totland Bay, Isle of Wight. She died about a month ago, and he had been living at Southsea in apartments for about ten months. He had not enjoyed good health recently. Aitken, who was lodged in the house, was heard by the landlord moving about at 4 o’clock in the morning, and at about 8 o’clock the tragedy was discovered. He has no relatives living in the district, but some were summoned from other parts of the country.’

Operated upon, Jarvis spent the next three months in hospital before returning to light duties on 27 December 1916 with the Army Canteen Committee. Appearing before a special Medical Board at Caxton Hall in May 1917, it soon became clear that further treatment was required; sent to the Prince of Wales Hospital, he made a slow recovery and spent the final year of the war with the Army Canteen Service in Egypt.

A French Cuirrassier's M.1807 Backplate. Nine brass studs along the bottom edge and six around the neck. There is a musket ball hole on the lower right side. By the size of the hole it would be reasonable to assume that this was caused by a British musket ball. It would have carried with it into the wearer’s body the scraps of steel from the armour, plus material from the liner and his uniform, almost certainly killing him, good condition, apart from the bullet hole £360-£440 --- As the British Army had not faced French Cuirrasiers in the Peninsula, it would be reasonable to assume that this was brought back from Waterloo. See Waterloo Witnesses by K. Hughes for many mentions of Cuirrasiers armour and its being a very popular souvenir.

An extremely rare Baltic and China War campaign group of three awarded to 1st Engineer J.

Columbia, 1845.) good very fine (3) £1,400-£1,800 --- Importation Duty This lot is subject to importation duty of 5% on the hammer price unless exported outside the UK --- --- Provenance: Triffett Collection (Tasmania) 1948; Spink, July 1988. James Urquhart was born on 1 May 1811 and entered the Royal Navy as 1st Engineer at Woolwich on 2 July 1839. Initially posted to the William & Mary, he transferred to Firefly on 10 October 1839 and Columbia from 28 June 1842 to 12 January 1848. According to an entry in the Admiralty Digests for 1845, Urquhart qualified at this time for the Naval Engineers Medal for his invention of a Tide Gauge, it being presented to him on 8 July 1845. Transferred to Fisgard, Scourge, Blenheim and Caesar, Urquhart went on to serve aboard the frigate Retribution from 1 April 1855 to 22 December 1860, and is entitled to the Baltic 1854 and China Campaign 1857-60 medals during this period. According to the Head of the Admiralty Record Office at Whitehall on 3 April 1950: ‘It may be interesting to note that the satisfaction of the Board of the Admiralty was conveyed to the Commanding Officer, H.M.S. ‘Retribution’ in February 1860 for the ‘unremitting exertions of Chief Engineer I James Urquhart.’ Further posted to Asia and Cumberland, Urquhart reverted to shore at his own request on 24 February 1866. Sold with an impressive file of copied research regarding the recipient and the Naval Engineers Medal, with confirmation by Seaby’s in November 1950, reprinted from the Newsletter of the Australian Numismatic Society, that Urquhart is the eighth recipient of the Naval Engineers Medal to be found, the rolls and work by Major L. L. Gordon in his British Battles and Medals, 1st Edition - initially quoting six recipients - being incomplete and possibly inaccurate. Gordon himself amended the number to seven medals in his 2nd edition of 1950, the eighth to Urquhart being confirmed by Admiralty Digests. Captain K. J. Douglas-Morris also confirms the award of Urquhart’s Medal.

A fine post-War 1964 ‘Aden Brigade’ B.E.M. Pair awarded to Staff Sergeant J. K. Roberts, Royal Signals, who was instrumental in enabling military and civil communications across Aden British Empire Medal, (Military) E.II.R. (22515075 Sgt. John K. Roberts. R. Sigs.) with Royal Mint case of issue; Army L.S. & G.C., E.II.R., 2nd issue, Regular Army (22515075 S.Sgt. J. K. Roberts. B.E.M. R. Signals.) mounted as worn; together with the related miniature awards, these similarly mounted, good very fine (2) £200-£240 --- B.E.M. London Gazette 1 January 1964. The original recommendation states: ‘Aden Colony and State. 17 May 1961 to 6 May 1963. He carried out his basic line work and administrative duties as Troop Sergeant of Line Troop most successfully. These line duties entailed a supervision of work effort on cable projects, works services and fault repairs through the whole of Aden State. In addition to these, his established duties, he was intimately concerned in the detailed planning of Signals Works Services for Aden Colony (and State) and the preparation of specifications and stores forecasts for such projects. He applied the knowledge gained from his General Post Office background and training to the multitudinous line communication problems, with an intelligence and shrewdness which always produced the right answer. His task on line communications was a difficult one owing to the paucity, indeed non existence in many instances, of cable routing records in the Services and Posts and Telecommunications Aden: These difficulties were aggravated by the rapid build up of Army units with associated new camps and installations. He showed admirable flexibility of mind in coping with the continual changes in communication planning required by this build up. A flair for making use of what equipment and cable was available as opposed to what was technically required enabled him to produce the solution to many immediate communication problems. His work called for a considerable and sustained personal effort far greater than that required or expected from one of his rank and seniority. His example was an inspiration to those who worked for and with him. These additional duties entailed close liaison with the Senior British engineers of the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications Aden and his work enabled the first intelligible set of cable records for both civil and military installations, to be made. His conduct and ability gave an excellent impression of the potential of Army Signals to the Civil Technical Staff in Aden: so much so that the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications acknowledged his fine spirit of cooperation and his excellent work by sending a letter of appreciation, at the end of his tour, to Headquarters Middle East Command.’ John Keith Roberts was recommended for the B.E.M. on 3 July 1963 by Major P. A. MacGillivray, Officer Commanding No. 254 Signal Squadron (Aden), and Brigadier M. Harbottle, Commander Aden Garrison. Formerly known as Headquarters British Forces Arabian Peninsula (Independent) Signal Squadron, No. 254 Signal Squadron (Aden) was disbanded in 1965 and absorbed into No. 15 Signal Regiment, being later tasked with UN peacekeeping duties in Cyprus.
