Charles Walter GRAY
Hi there. My great great grandfather was Charles Walter Gray, born in Maidstone in 1873. He was in the 7th Queen's Own Hussars. On the 16th of July 1897 he was wounded in Mashonaland which is in modern day Zimbabwe. He had to have his leg amputated after receiving the wound from an enemy spear. He recovered at Netley Military Hospital. The photo of him here is at Netley, he is on the left with the crutches. Thanks. Russell

Enoch WADLEY was born in 1861 in Herefordshire. At the age of 17 he enlisted in the 2nd Gloucestershire Regiment and was sent to India. During the next nine years, he saw a lot of fighting and in January1887, he was taken to hospital in India and declared insane by the army surgeon K.M. O'Callighan. In March he was sent to Netley with a certificate saying that he was of an unsound mind and he had been eccentric for months. Dr Welsh of Netley hospital said he could not return to the service because he had been "affected with insanity", so he was discharged and sent home on the 7th June 1887.
On the 15th June 1887 he killed Elizabeth Hannah Evans after meeting her from her work in the barleyfields, and after a trial, was found guilty and sentenced to death.
