Il retournait à cheval au camp le 2 accompagné du lieutenant Carey, du 98e adjudant en second du quartier-maitre général. de six blancs et, quelques Zoulous amis, tous à cheval. A environ dix milles de distance du camp, la petite colonne fit halte at mit pied à terre, un peu à l’écart de la route. Au moment ou le prince venait de donner l'ordre de se remettre en selle. une fusillade partit des hautes herbes qui entourant les kraals. Le prince impérial et deux soldats sont portés manquants par le lieutenant Carey, qui a réussi à échapper et a gagné le camp à la nuit. D'après toutes les circonstances, il 'est pas douteux quo le prince ait été tué. Quelques lanciers du 17 régiment et de l'ambulance partent pour rapporter le corps; mais je vous adresse la présente sans plus attendre, espérant qu'elle arrivera encore à temps pour partir par le courrier. J’ignorais moi-même que le prince impérial eût été désigné pour cette reconnaissance. »" Below right: A la suite de le télégramme, le Times publie les dépêches suivantes: Stelezi-Hill, 2 juin. Au point du jour, une patrouille de cavalerie, sous le commandement du général Marshall. partit à la recherche du prince impérial et parcourut les kraals l'espace de dix milles. Le corps du prince fut découvert dans les herbes à Donga, à 300 mètres du kraal. Il n'avait pas de blessure de balle, mais dix-sept blessures de zagaies par devant. Ses vêtements lui avaient été enlevés. I avait autour du cou une chaine avec un médaillon. Un brancard fut formé avec les lances, et le corps porté par Marchall, Drury, Lowe, le mjor Stewart et d'autres officiers du 17e lanciers, fut. place dans la voiture d'ambulance dans laquelle il est arrivé ici avec une escorte. L'après-midi, il v a eu une parade funèbre. Un profond chagrin règne dans toute la colonne. Le prince n'est pas remonté à cheval après l’attique, parce que son cheval était rétif ; il se mit à courir à pied. Le corps part sous escorte pour être transporté en Angleterre.
