Midshipman Walter Leslie Rundle, ( – 22 June, 1869) served in the Royal Navy.
Life & Career
Rundle was appointed to Minotaur on 12 April, 1867, and died died as a Midshipman on full pay in mid-1869. I presume this was due to disease. Minotaur was flagship in the Channel Squadron at the time.
Rundle's shipmates erected a plaque in All Saints Church, Highweek, Devon noting his date of death. It sits alongside Captain Joseph Sparkhall Rundle, d. 1880, and Commander Walter Wemyss Leslie, d. 1863.[1]
