Their Brother Officers imprefse (old English) with deepest Sorrow and with the highest sense of their courage and manly virtues have erected the Monument.
Newspaper extract taken from Bell’s Weekly Messenger dated 12 July 1798. Belfast, June 12. The King’s troops after routing the insurgents at Saintfield, marched to Comber, where they rested during the night and the next morning arrived in Belfast. It is with regret we mention the loss of three brave Officers in this action, viz. Captain Chetwynd, Lieutenant Unite and Ensign James Sparks, who were killed: Lieut, Edensor was wounded. The total return of the King’s troops are 16 killed, 22 wounded and three missing.

It appears the bodies of the three officers of the York Fencibles killed, Captain William Chetwynd, Lieutenant William Haw, Unite and Ensign James Sparks, were presumably dumped together with their comrades in a pit at Saintfield. (Mass grave).
