Private H. G. Goodey, 1st Battalion Essex Regiment was wounded at Belfast on 26 August 1900. Both Hammond and Mann were recommended for gallantly attending and rescuing Goodey during the action at Belfast. ‘These men were the stretcher bearers of my Company (B) and when Pte. Goodey was wounded they attended him in a very cool manner under a heavy rifle and pompom fire and then carried him for about 200 yards across the open and returned to the firing line when they had placed him in a safe spot under cover’. However, no awards were made for this brave act.
