The butter was for the most part used on the Muncey table where hearty appetities of healthy children left little to be taken in trade at the store for butter at 20c a pound. The healthy children grew up to make their way in the world. One son, Singleton Wyndham , known in Carleton as "Sing" enlisted for the Boer War in Winnipeg in 1899 nda served as Sergeant with the E. Battery , Royal Canadian Field Artillery. At the end of the formal fighting he joined Howard's Scouts in a mopping-up action against the guerilla fighters and in February of 1901 was wounded in the shoulder. The severing nerves which paralized his arm resulted in his convalescence in England for a year where his disability was partially overcome. In 1928 when the Empire Parliamentary Association came to Canada , one of its members Colonel Collins an Irishman who had commanded a Boer unit in the war told newspaper men that he owed a pair of boots to S. W. Muncy from whom he had looted them with other personal belongings after wounding him in a skirmish on the Veldt. Collins knew Sing's name from a letter which he took •at the time and had mailed for him. In 1916 as a lieutenant in the 188th Battalion, Sing Muncey sailed Overseas, served in France with the 5th Battalion and was with the Army of Occupation in Germany.
