London Gazette 3 June 1919, p6790, Rec 3403 "This Officer has served continuously in the Field from the landing in Gallipoli until the armistice – except for a short period while wounded. In action, for the first time as a Regimental Officer, later as a Battalion Commander, and for the last eighteen months as a Brigade Commander, his leadership and gallantry have throughout won the confidence of his men. His conduct of operations entrusted to him has always won the confidence of his superiors. Behind the Line his own sense of duty has been an example to his officers, and his unremitting care for the comfort and welfare of his men has ensured their affection and obedience. For some years previous to the War, and at a time when no other reward than a sense of duty performed could be looked for, this Officer, among others, by hard work with the Volunteers, later with the Territorial Force, made possible the foundation on which the success of the New Zealand Expeditionary Force has largely been built."
