The Waterloo Medal awarded to Lieutenant John Sperling, Royal Engineers, one of eleven engineer officers present at the battle, he had previously distinguished himself in leading the ‘Forlorn Hope’ at Bergen-op-Zoom in 1814 Waterloo 1815 (Lieut. John Sperling, Engineer, R. Artillery.) fitted with original steel clip and silver bar suspension, minor edge bruising, otherwise good very fine and very rare £6,000-£8,000 --- The Royal Engineers were an all-officer corps and part of the Board of Ordnance together with the Royal Artillery. Most, but not all, of the Waterloo medals issued to these few engineers are named with the designation ‘Engineer, R. Artillery’. Of the known surviving medals, four are named in this manner whilst those to Lieutenants Head and Gilbert are known to be named ‘Royal Engineers’. John Sperling, was born at Tottenham on 4 November 1793, son of Henry Piper Sperling of Park Place, Henley-on-Thames, and afterwards of Norbury Park, Surrey. After passing through the Royal Military Academy at Woolwich, and spending some time in the ordnance survey of Great Britain, Sperling received a commission as second lieutenant in the royal engineers on 14 December 1811. He joined his corps at Chatham in March 1812, and was promoted to be first lieutenant on 1 July 1812. In December 1813, Sperling embarked at Ramsgate with the expedition under Sir Thomas Graham (afterwards Lord Lynedoch), to assist the Dutch against the French, whose garrisons had been recently much reduced in strength. He was one of nine officers of royal engineers under the commanding royal engineer Lieutenant-Colonel (afterwards Lieutenant-General Sir) James Carmichael Smyth. They landed at Williamstadt on 18 December. On 31 December, Sperling was at Staandaarhuyten making a bridge of boats, and in the early part of January 1814 he restored a tête-de-pont which protected the passage of the river. On 11 January 1814, Sperling, with his sappers, was attached to a column sent to assist the Prussians in dislodging the French from Hoogstraaten. Sperling went to Breda on 21 January to arrange for accommodating a store depôt for the bombardment of Antwerp. On 2 February he advanced his engineer stores to Merxem, and during the night commenced the construction of a mortar battery, which was armed and opened fire on Antwerp on the afternoon of the 3rd. He did duty in the trenches until the 6th, when the siege was raised. The British troops went into cantonments, and Sperling, after taking his engineer stores to Breda, was sent to Tholen, in the neighbourhood of Bergen-op-Zoom, to report on the fortifications there. On 8 March an attempt was made to storm Bergen-op-Zoom with four columns. Headed by Sperling, No. 1 storming column effected an entrance by surprise at the watergate and seized the guard, the French officer surrendering his sword to Sperling, who kept it as a trophy. The party then swept the ramparts for some way, but not being supported by the main body of their own, and encountering a large force of the enemy, it was obliged to fall back after the death of its two commanders, Carleton and Gore. In the course of this operation it came across the second column under Major-General Cooke, and together they made a stand for the night. When the day dawned it should have been possible to take Bergen-op-Zoom; but, instead of support, came an order to retire. The master-general of the board of ordnance conveyed to Sperling ‘a particular approbation of the gallantry and ability shown by him while attached to the advanced party which entered the fortress.’ On 23 March Sperling was appointed adjutant and quartermaster of the sappers and miners, and he accordingly joined headquarters at Calmthout. But on 11 April news arrived of the entrance of the allies into Paris, and of the change of government, upon which hostilities at once ceased. Sperling moved with army headquarters to St. Graven Wesel on 18 April, and during May was employed in preparations for taking possession of the fortresses assigned to British occupation by the convention. He also visited all the Scheldt defences. As soon as Antwerp was handed over, British headquarters were moved thither. On 7 June Sperling was sent to London to lay before the board of ordnance plans and reports of the fortresses. He returned to Antwerp on 8 July. In August he made a survey and plan of Liège citadel for Lord Lynedoch, who was vacating the command, the Prince of Orange succeeding him. On 10 September he removed with headquarters to Brussels, and in October reconnoitred ground which the Prince of Orange considered a good position for an army in advance of Brussels. When the news of Napoleon's escape from Elba arrived (9 March 1815), Sperling's work became very heavy. In April he visited Ghent in regard to the defence works for the permanent bridge over the Scheldt. On the 21 and 22 of this month he dined with Wellington, who, after a tour of inspection of the fortresses, expressed himself well satisfied with Sperling's preparations. On 1 May Sperling reported on the bridge of boats constructed at Boom, and then accompanied Colonel Carmichael Smyth on a tour of inspection of the works at Ghent, Oudenarde, Tournay, the pontoon bridge over the Scheldt at Escanaffles, with its tête-de-pont at Ath. A sketch which he made of the position at Hal for defence against an invading army was laid before Wellington on the 17th, who at once sent him to Antwerp to meet Sir David Dundas and conduct him over Bergen-op-Zoom. On 15 June the French crossed the frontier, and on the 16, all the troops in Brussels were in motion. Sperling joined Colonel Carmichael Smyth on the 17th, and found the British army falling back after the battle of Quatre Bras. Next day Sperling and Carmichael Smyth accompanied the Duke during the early part of the battle of Waterloo, and after, owing to the various evolutions, they separated from Wellington, they remained until the great engagement ended, for the most part on the hill near the artillery, occasionally taking refuge in the infantry squares. On 19 June Sperling returned with Smyth to Brussels, and arrived on 24 June at Le Cateau. He then moved with headquarters towards Paris. On 2 July he visited Argenteuil, Bezons, and Carrières, to report on their comparative eligibility for bridging the Seine. Argenteuil was selected, and the bridge was in progress the following day. On 7 July Sperling entered Paris with the headquarters staff. He remained in Paris until 27 January 1816, when he was moved to Cambrai. Sperling returned to England in November 1818, and retired on permanent half-pay on 24 January 1824. He resided first at Great Doods, near Reigate, Surrey, and afterwards in a house which he built for himself in Palace Gardens, Kensington, London. He died at Kensington on 13 February 1877. Sperling was the author of Letters of an Officer of the Corps of Royal Engineers, from the British Army in Holland, Belgium, and France, to his Father, from the latter end of 1813 to 1816, London, 1872 [now available in The Waterloo Archive, Volume VI: British sources, edited by Gareth Glover].

Four: Gunner P. E. Stilton, Royal Field Artillery 1914-15 Star (86874. Ftr. P. E. Stilton, R.F.A.); British War and Victory Medals (86874 Gnr. P. E. Stilton.

Philip Edward Stilton was born in Kentish Town, Middlesex, around 1885, and attested for the Royal Field Artillery at Woolwich on 25 August 1914. Sent to the workshops at Woolwich for a skills test, the resulting judgement of ‘indifferent’ by Major R. Edmonds, Army Ordnance Department, proved an early setback. Repeated absences from barracks further held Stilton back. Appointed Acting Fitter 23 May 1915, Stilton finally crossed the English Channel to France on 31 May 1915 and was later vindicated with the award of the M.S.M. in the New Year’s Honours list of 1917.
