Citations

LG 3 March 1917 - "For conspicuous gallantry during an enemy attack on the garrison which he was commanding. The attacking force, with artillery, was far superior in number, but by Capt. Marriott's energy in organising the defence and by his fine example of coolness and courage held the post and repulsed three enemy assaults at close quarters, inflicting severe losses on the enemy."
