Prince Frederick of Teck, later Lord Frederick Cambridge (23 September 1907 – 15 May 1940). Duke of Teck and later military career. In January 1900, Adolphus succeeded his father as Duke of Teck. The new duke served with his regiment during the Boer War 1899–1900, for which he was promoted Brevet major in November 1900.
The 1st Battalion moved to Vilvorde, then on to Leuven, where they had their first engagement with German troops four days later. The following day, during very heavy fighting, Lord Cambridge was killed, the first officer of the Coldstream Guards to fall. He was a popular soldier and his loss was felt.
Lord Frederick's cricketing talent as an accurate slow bowler was spotted at Cambridge University by the George, 9th Earl of Winchilsea, who invited him to play for MCC. Beauclerk's first-class debut was for MCC v Gentlemen of Kent at Lord's Old Ground on 2 & 3 June 1791. Beauclerk was "now but 18 years of age".
