Coal Capital: the Shaping of Social Relations in the Stormberg, 1880-1910 UNIVERSITY OF THE WITWATERSRAND FACULTY OF HUMANITIES SCHOOL OF SOCIAL SCIENCES DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY COAL CAPITAL: THE SHAPING OF SOCIAL RELATIONS IN THE STORMBERG, 1880-1910 PhD PAT GIBBS 330289 Supervisors: Professor Phillip Bonner Dr Noor Nieftaqodien Professor Anne Mager Port Elizabeth 2014 i Abstract This thesis is an analysis of the interaction of a variety of communities that coalesced around the coal fields in the environs of the town of Molteno in the Stormberg mountains, during the late Victorian period and the first decade of the 20th century. An influx of mining and merchant capitalists, bankers and financiers, skilled miners and artisans from overseas and Thembu labourers from across the Kei River flooded into what had been a quasi-capitalist world dominated mainly by Afrikaner stock farmers, some English farmers and Thembu and Khoi sharecroppers and labourers. It also examines the brief life-span of a coal mining enterprise, which initially held out the hope of literally fuelling South Africa’s industrial revolution, and its relationship with the economically and socially significant railway, which it drew into the area. This capitalisation of an early capitalist zone on the northern border of the Cape has demanded an analysis of the intersecting economies of mining, farming and urbanisation as well as of the race, class and ethnic formations generated by this interaction. In delineating the day-to-day minutiae of events, this thesis seeks to reveal a microcosmic view of the fortunes and identities of the associated communities and to present a distinctive, regional study of a hitherto unknown and early aspect of South Africa’s mineral revolution. ii DECLARATION I declare that this thesis is my unaided work. It is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, South Africa. It has not been submitted before for any other degree or examination in any other university. Patricia Anne Gibbs -------------------------------- day of ---------------------------------, 2014 iii Dedication I dedicate this thesis to the memory of Johannes Meintjes, artist and author, who wrote to preserve the stories of Molteno and who loved the Stormberg iv Acknowledgements I would like to express my thanks to my supervisors, Professor Phil Bonner and Dr Noor Nieftagodien, and to my co-supervisor at UCT, Professor Anne Mager. I have been very fortunate to have benefitted from their intellectual guidance. Professor Mager deserves my enormous gratitude for her incisive criticisms and her rapid responses to my every query. Under her tutelage, I believe that I have learned much. I am also indebted to Professor Bonner and Dr Nieftagodien for accepting me onto their research programme ‘Local Histories, Present Realities: Addressing Current Problems by Recovering South Africa’s Lost Local Pasts’. Even though the project was conceptualized around Mpumulanga, Limpopo and Gauteng, my Eastern Cape focus was welcomed. In this regard, I must also thank Ms Zahn Gowar, the Senior Administrator of the History Workshop, whose sharp efficiency quickly solved every query I had and dissolved the problem of distance. I also want to thank the National Research Foundation (NRF) Chair in History for its generous funding over a period of three years. It gave me an opportunity to explore a world removed in time that eventually came to feel as though it existed alongside of me. I only hope that my research has fulfilled the NRF’s expectations. Jeff Peires also deserves special mention for his kindness in always being ready to share his vast expertise and keen insights with me. The staff of the Wits University Library and Historical and Literary Papers, particularly Zofia Sulej, was extremely helpful with my enquiries. Gloria Cooper deserves thanks for her fastidious transcriptions of the interviews as does Emile Coetzee for translating the whole of Johannes Meintjes’ Dorp van Drome from Afrikaans into English. My great thanks also goes to Callum Anderson for the hours he patiently put into formatting the thesis, entering maps and photos for me and creating a professional finish to the document. Francky Herbst and Dr Robert Herbst deserve mention for printing chapters for me when I had limited access to a printer. My heartfelt thanks go to the people of the Stormberg: busy farmers who made time for me such as Sandy and John Stretton, Paul Mortlock, both Jan Aucamps, Derric Fuller, Dudley Price, George Moorcroft, Sean Bryant and Hannes van Zyl. Verne Cockin of Kei Mouth gave me a lengthy interview and a roast lunch. Mr. Dlamini of the Molteno Municipality introduced me to a number of informants including Mrs Koto, Rose Buttlend and Mrs Noto. Topsy Beukes at the Sterkstroom museum gave me an interesting overview of some of the notable inhabitants of former years. Although, in the end, I did not use certain interviews v because of the shifting perameters of the study, I would like to record my apologies and thanks to the informants. They include Chief Ngangomnlaba Matanzima at Qamata, Chief Zwelenqaba Mgudlwa at Engcobo, Monde Makhambe at Lesseyton, Dennis Simanga at Sterkstroom, Adam Karelse’s group and Poppie Wagenaar at Molteno, Mr Dyani at Sterkstroom, Mr Jamela at Cofimvaba and Ntombi Ndlula in Queenstown. Finally, I want to thank my beloved family in Cape Town, Liam, Janine, Sade and Erin for accommodating me for long periods while I visited the Cape Town Archives. vi Table of contents CHAPTER 1 - INTRODUCTION ............................................................................................. 1 Approach to the problem ....................................................................................................... 6 Themes ................................................................................................................................. 12 Methodology and research process ...................................................................................... 21 Terminology ......................................................................................................................... 24 Outline of subsequent chapters ............................................................................................ 24 CHAPTER 2 - THE OPENING OF THE COAL MINES AND THE COMING OF THE RAILWAY, 1880 – 1899 ......................................................................................................... 27 The establishment of coal capitalism and the railway ......................................................... 27 Expanding horizons ............................................................................................................. 39 The ambivalence of the Cape Government Railways to Stormberg coal ............................ 45 Social relations on the coal and rail nexus ........................................................................... 56 Conclusion ........................................................................................................................... 69 CHAPTER 3 - THE URBAN ECONOMY OF COAL, 1880-1899 ........................................ 70 The political economy of the towns ..................................................................................... 70 Ideology and identity ........................................................................................................... 78 Imagining community: the Middleburg junction and the rise of Molteno, 1888................. 80 Challenges to Victorian sensibility .................................................................................... 101 Conclusion ......................................................................................................................... 115 CHAPTER 4 - THE RESPONSE OF FARMING TO THE COAL FRONTIER, 1880-1899 ................................................................................................................................................ 118 Pre-existing challenges and class differentiation ............................................................... 118 Farmers’ responses to coal and the railway ....................................................................... 126 Increasing social stratification due to the railway .............................................................. 133 Coal, farming, labour shortage and the perennial issue of stock theft ............................... 141 Ethnic polarisation: English – Afrikaner relations............................................................. 146 Conclusion ......................................................................................................................... 160 CHAPTER 5 - THE SOUTH AFRICAN WAR AND ITS AFTERMATH, 1899-1906 ...... 162 The war, 1899-1902 ........................................................................................................... 162 Opportunities, losses and loyalties ..................................................................................... 169 The war’s impact on blacks ............................................................................................... 180 Aftermath: restitution, rural struggles and urban development, 1902 - 1906 ................... 182 Conclusion ......................................................................................................................... 199 CHAPTER 6 - THE DEMISE OF THE COAL INDUSTRY, 1902-1911 ............................ 201 The decline of the coal mines ...........................................................................................

Two eThembeni staff members inspected the borrow pits on 8 and 9 September 2008 and completed controlled-exclusive surface surveys of each. We identified no heritage resources within any of the proposed development areas. The landscape within which the borrow pits are located is one of extensive agriculture and conservation, dominated overwhelmingly by game and hunting farms. Scattered villages, towns and farmsteads are present and infrastructure is generally basic and limited to services that provide for local needs. All the borrow pits will be rehabilitated according to the standards of the Department of Minerals and Energy, to ensure that visual impacts on the landscape are minimized in the long term. We recommend that the development proceed with no further heritage mitigation and have submitted this report to the South African Heritage Resources Agency in fulfilment of the requirements of the Heritage Resources Act 1999. The relevant SAHRA personnel are Dr Antonieta Jerardino (telephone 021 462 4502) and Mr Thanduxolo Lungile (telephone 043 722 1740/2/6).

  • The Sauropodomorph Biostratigraphy of the Elliot Formation of Southern Africa: Tracking the Evolution of Sauropodomorpha Across the Triassic–Jurassic Boundary
    Editors' choice The sauropodomorph biostratigraphy of the Elliot Formation of southern Africa: Tracking the evolution of Sauropodomorpha across the Triassic–Jurassic boundary BLAIR W. MCPHEE, EMESE M. BORDY, LARA SCISCIO, and JONAH N. CHOINIERE McPhee, B.W., Bordy, E.M., Sciscio, L., and Choiniere, J.N. 2017. The sauropodomorph biostratigraphy of the Elliot Formation of southern Africa: Tracking the evolution of Sauropodomorpha across the Triassic–Jurassic boundary. Acta Palaeontologica Polonica 62 (3): 441–465. The latest Triassic is notable for coinciding with the dramatic decline of many previously dominant groups, followed by the rapid radiation of Dinosauria in the Early Jurassic. Among the most common terrestrial vertebrates from this time, sauropodomorph dinosaurs provide an important insight into the changing dynamics of the biota across the Triassic–Jurassic boundary. The Elliot Formation of South Africa and Lesotho preserves the richest assemblage of sauropodomorphs known from this age, and is a key index assemblage for biostratigraphic correlations with other simi- larly-aged global terrestrial deposits. Past assessments of Elliot Formation biostratigraphy were hampered by an overly simplistic biozonation scheme which divided it into a lower “Euskelosaurus” Range Zone and an upper Massospondylus Range Zone. Here we revise the zonation of the Elliot Formation by: (i) synthesizing the last three decades’ worth of fossil discoveries, taxonomic revision, and lithostratigraphic investigation; and (ii) systematically reappraising the strati- graphic provenance of important fossil locations. We then use our revised stratigraphic information in conjunction with phylogenetic character data to assess morphological disparity between Late Triassic and Early Jurassic sauropodomorph taxa. Our results demonstrate that the Early Jurassic upper Elliot Formation is considerably more taxonomically and morphologically diverse than previously thought.

  • The Anatomy and Phylogenetic Relationships of Antetonitrus Ingenipes (Sauropodiformes, Dinosauria): Implications for the Origins of Sauropoda
    THE ANATOMY AND PHYLOGENETIC RELATIONSHIPS OF ANTETONITRUS INGENIPES (SAUROPODIFORMES, DINOSAURIA): IMPLICATIONS FOR THE ORIGINS OF SAUROPODA Blair McPhee A dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Science, University of the Witwatersrand, in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science. Johannesburg, 2013 i ii ABSTRACT A thorough description and cladistic analysis of the Antetonitrus ingenipes type material sheds further light on the stepwise acquisition of sauropodan traits just prior to the Triassic/Jurassic boundary. Although the forelimb of Antetonitrus and other closely related sauropododomorph taxa retains the plesiomorphic morphology typical of a mobile grasping structure, the changes in the weight-bearing dynamics of both the musculature and the architecture of the hindlimb document the progressive shift towards a sauropodan form of graviportal locomotion. Nonetheless, the presence of hypertrophied muscle attachment sites in Antetonitrus suggests the retention of an intermediary form of facultative bipedality. The term Sauropodiformes is adopted here and given a novel definition intended to capture those transitional sauropodomorph taxa occupying a contiguous position on the pectinate line towards Sauropoda. The early record of sauropod diversification and evolution is re- examined in light of the paraphyletic consensus that has emerged regarding the ‘Prosauropoda’ in recent years. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First, I would like to express sincere gratitude to Adam Yates for providing me with the opportunity to do ‘real’ palaeontology, and also for gladly sharing his considerable knowledge on sauropodomorph osteology and phylogenetics. This project would not have been possible without the continued (and continual) support (both emotionally and financially) of my parents, Alf and Glenda McPhee – Thank you.
