Thank you all very much, nice to put a name to the item.

Found in Staffordshire so both regiments are local.

There is also this transcription of his medical record. You'll notice a difference in birth year of 1873 on this document compared to 1874 on his pension ledger. Not uncommon and I believe it's the same man. (also an original record entry)
