This is Col. William Struthers, who is the antagonist of my short story “The Raid on Camp Struthers” which takes place around 1896 AD. Overseeing a colonial garrison in the protectorate of British East Africa (the titular camp being named after his family), Col. Struthers has captured and imprisoned King Oburu of the local Sibour people for refusing to pay the colonial regime’s oppressive taxes. It is up to Oburu’s sister Anyango, together with the American diamond prospector Jack Erwin, to free him from Struthers and his men’s clutches.
