Notes
An original cutting of a Victorian article (no printed thematic title included in the cut out) by WHI Bleek. Published in Het Volksblad on Thursday, January 12th, 1865. A continuation of the untitled article under the previous entry. Bleek vacillates between justifying peace being inevitable due to the outnumbering of the Free State Burghers by the Basuto and the Basuto capitulating to avoid an existential crisis at the hands of a unified settlerdom.
