He was the son of Walter Scott – whose address, in 1891, was noted as \'Buchanan\'s Buildings, Burnbank\' - a small settlement situated between Hamilton and Blantyre, in Lanarkshire On 12 October 1891, at Hamilton, Robert Scott attested for the Royal Highlanders. Having given his \"Trade or Calling\' as \'Farm servant\', he agreed to serve \'7 years with the Colors, and 5 years in the Reserve\'. At that time, his height was measured at 5 feet 4 inches and he was noted to have a fresh complexion, with grey eyes and light brown hair. His \'Distinctive Marks\' were also described: \'Blue mark under right eye & on right forehead, Scar front of chest & left forearm\'. His \'Religious Denomination\' was recorded as \'Presbyterian\'. Having been allocated No. 4615, Private Scott reached the Black Watch Depot at Perth on the following day, 13 October. After basic training, he was posted to the 2nd Battalion on 22 December 1891. He served in Ireland with this battalion -- and has been traced in its muster rolls as being present in Limerick on 1 February 1892, and on 1 August 1892. Posted abroad to the 1st Battalion Black Watch, Robert Scott served in Gibraltar from 5 October 1892. He remained there up to 28 January 1893, when he embarked on HMS Himalaya, bound for Egypt. Having arrived at Abbassiyeh on 5 February 1893, the 1st Black Watch remained in Egypt until 3 March when the battalion was split in two. On that day, one half of the men left for Mauritius while, on 4 March 1893, the other half embarked once more on HMS Himalaya, bound for South Africa. Private Scott must have been with this half of the battalion, which reached Cape Town on 6 April 1893. Thereafter, he is shown on the muster rolls for \'B\' Company as serving in Cape Town on both 1 June, and 1 December, 1893. However, at the time of the latter date, he was actually attached to the Bechuanaland Border Police - his soldier\'s records noting that he \'served in the Matabele campaign from 18.10.93 to 21.3.94\'. Indeed, Private Scott was one of only 18 men from the 1st Black Watch - one officer and 17 other ranks - who took part in this campaign as mounted infantry, and who went on to receive the British South Africa Company\'s Medal. After exactly two years\' service, he had been granted Good Conduct Pay – though he forfeited this on 6 July 1895. Shortly after, on 10 July 1895, Private Scott was noted to be \'in the hands of the Civil Power\'. He was \'convicted of assault\' the following day - then returned to duty on 12 July 1895. In his soldier\'s records, it was made clear that these two days spent in civil hands did not count towards his pensionable service. Nevertheless, his Good Conduct Pay was restored on 5 February 1896 – following which, on 18 February 1896, he is noted to have commenced service in India. On 19 May 1899, his Good Conduct Pay was doubled, to 2d per day. Private Scott remained in India with the 1st Black Watch throughout the first years of the South African War. On 12 November 1901, at Kamptee, near Nagpur in central India, he agreed to extend his service to complete 12 years with the Colours. No doubt, the 397.8 Rupees he then received as a bounty played some part in persuading him to reach this decision- as it was fully intended to do. At that time, the Empire had a pressing need to retain its trained soldiery – particularly with regard to the continuing conflict in South Africa. On 6 December 1901, the 1st Black Watch, Robert Scott included, arrived there — following which, he campaigned against the Boers in the Orange Free State and the Transvaal. The war ended on 31 May 1902, though Private Scott remained in South Africa until October of that year, when he returned to the UK - landing there on 28 October 1902. He served at \'Home\' for the remainder of his Army career and passed a mounted infantry course at Bulford, on 17 July 1903. However, even near the very end of his service, he forfeited a penny a day Good Conduct Pay on 20 July and, again, on 7 October 1903.

Lieutenant Colonel. Archibald Henry Sharp was born on 20 June 1838 at Limerick in south-west Ireland. He was the son of John Sharp, general merchant, and Lucinda Sharp, whose maiden name was Coley. His service with the British Army began on 7 September 1855 when he was appointed ensign in the 73rd Foot aged 17 years and three months. This position was obtained \'without Purchase\', as were all subsequent promotions received by him, which speaks very highly of his abilities and achievements. Ensign Sharp served in the \'East Indies\' from 28 November 1857 and, for a period of seven months between 1858 and 1859, was \'Staff Officer to the Force on the Nepal Frontier\' under Lord Clyde. He was promoted lieutenant in the 73rd Foot on 2 July 1858 and is noted to have left the East Indies on 22 August 1861. This was also the year in which he received his Indian Mutiny Medal. Having then been for over five years in the United Kingdom, Lieutenant Sharp served in China from 23 November 1866 to 20 July 1868. During his subsequent time back in the UK, he was promoted to captain on 5 June 1869. Thereafter, he was in Ceylon from 19 February 1870 up to 22 April 1872, at which point he received six months\' leave in the UK. He returned to Ceylon on 1 November 1872 and remained there until 2 February 1874, when he proceeded to the East Indies. During this second period of duty in India he was station staff officer at Subathu, a hill cantonment near Simla, from 19 October 1875 to 21 February 1876. Captain Sharp left India on 4 June 1876, which marked the end of his overseas service. Archibald Sharp was appointed adjutant of the 1st Lanarkshire Volunteers in 1879 and his promotion to major dated from 1 July 1881. He retired from the Army as honorary lieutenant colonel on 14 March 1888. During the third quarter of 1888, at Westminster, he married Mary Crawford Cowper.(2) However, he was not fated to have a long retirement from the Army. Archibald Henry Sharp, \'Retired Lieutenant Colonel of Black Watch\', died of natural causes at Dalmore, Helensburgh, Dumbartonshire on 25 March 1891, aged 52 years. The informant of his death was his brother, of 13 Eden Park, Kingston, Dublin. NEF & Mounted as worn from an ornate silver ribbon buckle.
