Col. A.S. Hickman lists Sgt. Seale who worked in the Fort Tuli Commissariat department who died on 08.02.1891 of paralysis after several weeks illness. Major Leonard read the burial service on the 09.02.1891 in a hard drizzle. Leonard clearly affected writes that he read "earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust, in sure and certain hope of the resurrection to eternal life" in a way that was never conveyed to him before. The grave marker is incorrect stating his name as E. Searle and date of death as 1899.
