Nicolaas Leo served in the military administration in Dutch colonial forces. In Borneo's Western Division, he worked under Speters as an assistant superintendent. On January 7, 1882, he received a second-class punishment of three days room arrest for repeatedly submitting general forms that did not follow model 28.70.
