Notes
1. "(a. 18 Nov. /79)" appears on the top left of the first page of the letter. 2. Austrian Rev. J Rath was one of the well-known missionary-linguists working with the Herero in Namibia in the service of the Rhenish Missionary Society. By the time of this letter Rath was living in the Cape, working as a preacher and no longer as a missionary. 3. See Jemima Bleek's letter to Sir George Grey of 8 September 1875, shortly after Wilhelm Bleek's death, describing the situation at the Grey Library and the Committee's treatment of Wilhelm Bleek [C10.18].
