The Honourable J. G. WARD received a cable fro Sir Alfred MILNER in June 1900 reporting the following soldiers of the New Zealand Mounted Infantry were wounded or killed in the Boer War:

Military Awards: Imperial South African War Medal

HIS OBITUATRY was taken from the site The ANGLO-BOER WAR (South Cantabrians) ... The very sad news of the death of Corporal Byrne cast quite a gloom over Timaru last night, and his many friends here both among the volunteers and in other circles, expressed the deepest regret and sympathy with his father, mother, and sisters in their irreparable bereavement. Partings are always sad yet we are sure that the hundreds of people here on the departure of Willie Byrne, will often recall as a memory of regret his cheerfulness on bidding them farewell. He was one of the first to volunteer and as a non-commissioned officer had ably assisted his comrades of the First Contingent in the war in South Africa. He was the second son of Mr T. Byrne (his eldest brother, Daniel, is a member of the Fourth Contingent) a very old resident of Timaru, and saw his first service as a volunteer in the old C Battery of Artillery, joining this corps on the 21st February, 1894, when he was 17 years nine months old. On the disbanding of the Battery he joined the City Rifles, and had been in that company for about three years when he was accepted for service in South Africa. He was employed at the Belford mill. On receipt of the news at The Priory the Rev. Father Tubman directed that the bell at the church of the Sacred Heart be tolled, the deceased soldier having been a member of his flock. Born at South Rakaia in 1876, he net his death on the battlefield just on 24 years of age ...

He later became a tour guide in the geyser fields of Rotorua. Geyser tourism had been given a major boost in 1900 when the Waimangu (?black water?) geyser burst into life. It was the largest geyser recorded anywhere in the world between 1900 and 1904. In August 1903 it exploded unexpectedly, killing Warbrick and a party of three tourists.

Free Lance, 9 July 1919
Rugby Football passed away at Auckland last week, Archibald Edgar D'Arcy, who was well-known in business and insurance circles in New Zealand and Australia. Archie D'Arcy was also, in his younger days - he was 49 when he died - a prominent Rugby footballer and amateur athlete. He was born in Masterton and was a leading member of the Rugby team in the Wairarapa town when they considered they had a fifteen which was the best in New Zealand. They felt so sure of themselves that they undertook a trip to the South island in 1892. Merivale (Christchurch) were first met and the Masterton fellows romped over the Canterbury champions by 21 points to nil. The famous Alhambra team of Dunedin made no race of the Wairarapa boys, defeating them by 18 points to 4.
Archie D'Arcy was a member of the New Zealand tean that toured Australia in 1893 and also was a Dominion representative the following year. He was a fine three-quarter and full-back and made many friends in his playing days. He was a great sprinter on the flat and a good man over hurdles.
Many years ago he was transferred to Sydney to act as manager of the New South Wales branch of the New Zealand Insurance Company, a position which he held until a severe nervous breakdown, which he suffered last September, caused him to come to New Zealand to recruit his health. In Sydney he came into prominence as a golfer, winning many important trophies and for some years he was captain of the Australian Golf Club. He was also a very keen sportsman, and came to the Dominion frequently on fishing and shooting trips.

Subsequently he started a commission agency on his own account, which he continued for years. latterly, however, failing health has almost compelled his absolute retirement from business, and he has been seldom seen outside his own home.
As above stated, he went to Wellington Hospital to undergo an operation for tumour, some three weeks ago.

NZ Mail, 23 Sep 1897
OBITUARY Another of New Zealand's old colonists, Thomas Charles D'Arcy of Masterton, Wairarapa, passed away on Friday morning at the Wellington Hospital after a long and painful illness. The deceased was the only surviving son of the late Ambrose D'Arcy, of Lambton Ward, Durham, England and was born on the 18th June 1828. He was educated at the Durham Blue Coat School and on leaving that institution was articled to the law; but, having a decided bent towards a seafaring life, he shortly afterwards gratified it and for some 16 years followed that avocation, finally landing in this colony at Auckland some 42 years ago. During the past 42 years he was a resident of Wellington province, chiefly in the Wairarapa. His first employment in this province was upon one of the late Mr Riddiford's sheepruns as shepherd. After some years spent in gaining experience, he attempted sheepfarming on his own account at the Upper Taueru, but found that fell enemy scab too many for him. From there he took charge of Mr A. W. cave's well-known farm at Te Ore Ore, near Masterton and shortly afterwards was appointed Wellington manager for the Wairarapa Carrying Company, whose depot opposite the Star Chambers on Lambton quay will be remembered by the older Wellington merchants. This position he retained until the opening of the railway to Featherston. Since then he has lived in Masterton with varying success as an accountant and commission agent.
He leaves a widow and family of six sons and four daughters, mostly grown up. The death of Mr D'Arcy will be deeply regretted by all who knew him.

He left London in 1879, arrived at Wellington in the same year, and was appointed minister of the Durham Street Wesleyan Church, Christ-church.

In consequence of severe illness he was compelled to relinquish his ministerial duties for a considerable time and on recovery he joined the Church of England.
He was ordained deacon in 1882 and priest in 1884 at Christchurch Cathedral, by the late Primate, Bishop Harper.

Mr. Gillam was appointed curate of Ross and Okarito in Westland, where he remained two years, when he received the incumbency of St. Matthews, Christchurch, which was greatly enlarged during his cure.

He afterwards succeeded the late Archdeacon B. W. Dudley as incumbent of Rangiora, Canterbury and remained there for about five years, when he became incumbent of Temuka, near Timaru, and held that important post for eighteen months, when he was compelled to resign and leave for Auckland in consequence of a death and severe illness in his family.

On arriving in Auckland he was made vicar of Ellerslie and Epsom and during his incumbency the church at Epsom was enlarged and rebuilt and his parishioners erected a handsome vicarage at Ellerslie.

He became vicar of St. Matthews (Queen St, Auckland) in February 1900.

Mr. Gillam was a member of the standing committee of the Canterbury diocese for two years and also held a similar appointment in the Auckland diocese for one year.

He was a Freemason and was initiated in Ross Lodge in 1882 and afterwards held the office of Senior Warden in Lodge Temuka and chaplain of Royal Arch Chapter, Timaru
