Since corrected Link.

Offered commission after Rorkes Drift but couldn't afford it. However, he ended up as a Lieutenant Colonel OBE DCM. 1854 to 1945.

Also see Wikipedia entry for life and a photograph.

Pic. of B Coy. 24th after the battle, but not the one I was looking for which was much more closeup.

This Link doesn't seem to work, will try others. Will work if you google it.
