He was in SA by 1896 and, having lost money in a mineral-water venture in Johannesburg, worked for a German mining company at Brakpan, where he fell sick of a fever which nearly killed him. He survived the battle of Tugela Heights only to die at Ladysmith of enteric fever on March 20th 1900. He is commemorated as Pte H Hunt on the memorial in Thornhills Farm Garden of Remembrance.
