Summary: A dramatised Boer War short made by the Lancashire firm of Mitchell and Kenyon. It shows two Boers sneaking up unobserved on a British soldier. He is stabbed in the back and the Boers proceed to rob him of his cartridge belt and valuables. The attack on the soldier is seen by a comrade and a fight ensues. Victory is achieved by the British and the dying man is conveyed to a place of safety. (Despite its South African setting, it was filmed on the outskirts of Blackburn.)
