      Dear Colin,
      Thanks for your mail.
      Can't help a great deal but am copying this to our Historian, Cliff Rogers who may or may not be able to help further.
      My records confirm that 4351 Cst Anthony Leon Moate died of a gunshot wound on 8 April 1949. At that time he would only have been in his fifth month in the BSAP (British South Africa Police - which was the name at that time) so was probably still in training.
      Regards
      Barry Henson

      Mr. and Mrs. Moate, of "Antony House," Torpoint, Cornwall, brother and relatives of the late Mr. Anthony Leon Moate, desire to express sincere thanks to all friends for letters and messages of sympathy sent in their recent sad bereavement. Without farewell he fell asleep, memory we always keep.
