The 4th SAI pay their respects to the fallen of the South African Brigade at the Butte de Warlencourt in October 1916.

From The History of the South African Forces in France by John Buchan between pages 134 and 135

Move north to the Ypres area and take part in the attack of the Battle of the Menin Road Ridge on the 20th Sept. Donald is not listed in the officers taking part in the attack and so was probably not present by design (but see next month).
