The late Lieutenant W. P. Ricardo, 9th Lancers, killed in action at Cabul, 1880. Creator: Unknown.

The late Lieutenant W. P. Ricardo, 9th Lancers, killed in action at Cabul, 1880. 'The lamented death of several young and promising officers with the army in Afghanistan, under General Sir F. Roberts, at the renewal of hostilities round Cabul in the middle of December, has already been noticed. Lieutenant William Percy Ricardo, of the 9th (Queen's Royal) Lancers, who entered the service so recently as March, 1878, and was but twenty-two years of age at the time of his being killed in action, has his portrait engraved for this publication. His senior comrades of the same regiment, Captain S. G. Butson and Lieutenant C. J. R. Hearsey, were likewise killed in the fighting that took place on the 11th and 12th December. We shall probably be called upon to engrave several more portraits of this Class'. From "Illustrated London News", 1880.
