6/567 Private William Arthur Wall, (12/11/1875-8/5/1915). "in the Boer war"

PRIVATE WALL. 

Private William Arthur Wall was the oldest son of Mr W. H. Wall, of Edward street, Timaru. He was a blacksmith, and worked for many years with Mr Dalton in Timaru. Private Wall saw active service in the Boer war, being a member of the Seventh Contingent, and was about 38 years of age when he joined the Expeditionary Force.   -Otago Daily Times, 17/6/1915.


I cannot do a better job for William Wall than that done by the compiler of his story for SCROLL the South Canterbury Roll of Honour. I include the following link.
