RS - Was put on a horse as a small child of about 15 months, by the governess. He fell off, injuring his back and no-one was aware of the injury until his younger brother Donald outgrew him. Lennox never grew much and reached about 4 foot. He was with his father until William Alexander returned to SA in 1917/18, and from Elmenteita, Lennox moved to Glen Roi which belonged to Donald. Here he stayed for many years, in fact until he was too old and ill to stay on his own. He then went to Nairobi where he lived with his niece Patricia until his death.
