- Peter_Handcock abstract "Peter Joseph Handcock (1868–1902) was a Veterinary Lieutenant in the Bushveldt Carbineers in the Boer War in South Africa. Handcock and Harry "Breaker" Morant were court martialed, convicted, and executed in Pretoria by firing squad from the Queen's Own Cameron Highlanders on 27 February 1902 on murder charges for shooting nine Boer prisoners. Although the defendants were found guilty of executing these enemy combatants, they were acquitted of murdering a German missionary, Rev.C.A.D. Heese. A third defendant, George Witton, who had initially also been sentenced to death by the court-martial, was reprieved after three years.Handcock was born near Bathurst, New South Wales, and was apprenticed to a blacksmith at age 12. He worked as a blacksmith with the Railways Department. Married at 21, he had three children. He served in South Africa with the 1st New South Wales Mounted Rifles, and was promoted to Farrier-Sergeant. When the NSWMR returned home he obtained a commission in the Bushveldt Carbineers as Veterinary and Transport Officer, and was subsequently court-martialled for shooting Boer prisoners. The court-martial and sentence has subsequently been controversial in Australia.".
