The Advertiser Saturday 21 September 1929 pg 15 OBITUARY Another well-known member of the South Australian Corps of Veterans, Lance-Corporal La Folley, died at his residence, Cromwell-street, Adelaide, on Tuesday, after having been predeceased by his wife, who passed away a few days ago at the Adelaide Hospital. William Francis La Folley was born at St. Heliers, Jersey, on December 7, 1855, and, deciding on a military career, joined the Royal Highlanders, more popularly known as the Black Watch. He went with the 1st battalion of the regiment to Ashantee, and was at Amoaful and the capture of Coomassie, for which he received the medal and clasps. The behaviour of the regiment earned the highest en comiums from Sir Garnet Wolseley. The return march to the coast, under heavy rains, through swollen rivers, dense forests, and a deadly climate, added another well-won laurel to the honors of the regiment. Coming, after his discharge, to South Australia, Lance-Corporal La Folley became interested in the advertising and bill delivery business, and for years under took the delivery of handbills, book lets, and samples for wholesale firms. For a considerable time he had filled the position of a caretaker at the Bank of Adelaide. He has left six daughters—Mesdames E. Coombes, C. H. Round, R. Rochford, J. Thompson, H. Bugg, and A. Taylor. There are 18 grandchildren and four great-grand- children.
