The "Returned Soldiers from South Africa Illuminated Address" contains an honour roll of those who served in the South African (Boer) War.
Illuminated addresses were generally presented to persons of prominence or importance upon their leaving a position or as a mark of respect for services rendered. They were usually beautifully hand written in a very formal style and often fulsome in their praise.
