Military Medal 'This man was lead driver of a firing battery wagon of one of the forward sections during the operations in front of BELLICOURT on the 29th September. His horse was killed beneath him, and his off horse was wounded. The lead driver of the gun team was wounded; Gunner STONER volunteered to take his place, although much shaked by the concussion, and continued to act in this capacity during the rest of the day and greater part of the night. He displayed great devotion to duty and courage and is deserving of special recognition.'
