Fourth Contingent sdoings in South A frica. As a member of the Contingent I passed through the sixteen months active service without having once been off duty; and this personal experience I have supplemented -with information obtained from various authentic sources, at the expense of considerable labour. In undertaking this work I have received kindly assurance of assistance from numbers of my old comrades, to whom I am exceedingly grateful. For direct assistance I am pleased to acknowledge my indebtedness to Lieut Colonel A. Bauchop, C.M.G., Capt. R. J. S. Seddon, Lieut. E. Jolly, and Messrs. D. R. Corson and D. Bowie all of the Fourth and to Mr. John M. Nicolson and Mr. John Melville. Should this book meet with the approval of exmembers of the old regiment, I shall feel amply compensated for the time and labour spent in its compilation. JAMES G. HARLE MOORE. Dunedin, January 28, 1906.
