Plaque Wording:
This monument is erected by the 45th Regiment in memory of their comrades who died during the station of the regiment in the colony of Natal from July 1843 to April 1859. Font Parents, Sisters and Brothers weep for many noble hearts that sleep around this simple stone. But faith and hope shall dry the tear and point to that undaunted place where parting is unknown.
