Henry Stephen Rolfe - Bandmaster

I've no idea when this photo was taken but I understand that Harry created or at least helped to create a military unit band which later became the Mauritius Police Band. Locals were recruited as there was a shortage of musicians for the band. A Hall of Fame for the Police Band is to be created at the police barracks (or perhaps it already has by now) which may prove useful in shining some light on Harry’s involvement with the band.
