  • The Anglo-Boer War, a Welsh Hospital in South Africa
    24/05/2015 9:00 AM http://samilitaryhistory.org/vol123sw.html The South African Military History Society Die Suid-Afrikaanse Krygshistoriese Vereniging Military History Journal Vol 12 No 3 - June 2002 THE ANGLO-BOER WAR A WELSH HOSPITAL IN SOUTH AFRICA SA Watt, Pietermaritzburg The Welsh Hospital was one of a number of private initiatives in the medical services that were accepted and used by the British Government during the Anglo Boer War (1899-1902). It was organised by Professor Alfred W Hughes, assisted by a committee elected from the men and women of Wales. Funds amounting to £12 000 were acquired by subscription from the citizens of Wales and Welshmen residing outside the country. According to a Report by the Central British Red Cross Committee on the Voluntary Organisations in the Aid of the Sick and Wounded during the South African War, the personnel originally comprised three senior surgeons, two assistant surgeons, eight medical students and dressers, ten nursing sisters, two maids, 48 orderlies, cooks, and stretcher bearers. The medal roll lists 44 staff (W A Morgan, 1975, p 12). With them was the matron, Marion Lloyd. One of the senior surgeons was Professor Thomas Jones, who was a professor of surgery at Owen's College, Manchester, England (Report by the CBRCC, 1902; British Medical Journal, p 250). The personnel and equipment under the command of Major T W Cockerill embarked from Southampton on the Canada, 14 April 1900. The passage and freight was provided by the government. The stores, subsequently sent out, were shipped at the expense of the organisers.

  • Report Hoekpan Eden Fauresmith Diamond
    10 SEPTEMBER 2014 FIRST PHASE ARCHAEOLOGICAL & HERITAGE ASSESSMENT OF THE PROPOSED DIAMOND PROSPECTING AT HOEKPAN 942 & EDEN 893 NEAR PETRUSBURG, IN THE FAURESMITH DISTRICT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY De Beers Exploration is planning to do diamond prospecting at the farms Hoekpan 942 and Eden 893, about 4km south west of Petrusburg in the Fauresmith district, Free State. The proposed land lies in a relatively level area on the edge of a pan. The prospecting will be done on 35ha of partly cultivated land. Although the farms Hoekpan 942 and Eden 893 are located in a cultural and heritage rich area, no historical finds of significance were discovered. A small collection of heavily patinated Middle Stone Age flakes and flaked cores occur around the pan. The stone artefacts appear to be very old and seem to be a fairly general occurrence in the specific area. The flakes are considered as insignificant for closer investigation. No other cultural remains were found. It is assumed that the prospecting will have no major impact on the cultural heritage and historical environment at Hoekpan 942 and Eden 893. Further planning of the proposed project may continue and no mitigation measures will be needed. INTRODUCTION & DESCRIPTION Scope and Limitations De Beers Exploration is planning diamond prospecting at the farms Hoekpan 942 and Eden 893, about 4km south west of Petrusburg in the Fauresmith district. The prospecting work will cover a 35ha portion of land. De Beers Exploration commissioned the archaeological and heritage assessment. 2 The investigation provided the opportunity to examine the site. The soil surface consists of undisturbed grass-covered open veld with a scatter of Prosopis trees.

[email protected]@man. a c. uk A central claim in the war commemoration literature is that World War I brought about a fundamental change in state commemorative practices. This argument is problematised using a case study concerned with the relationship between local mourning, state commemoration and remem­ brancefollowingbrance following the South African War of 1899-1902, in which meanings about nationalism, belonging and citizenship have been inscribed within a 'legendary topography' which has concretised remembrance in commemo­ rative memorials and monuments. Two silences in commemoration from this War - a partial one concerning children and a more total one con­ cerning all black people - are teased out in relation to the Vrouemonument built in 1913, the Gedenktuine or Gardens of Remembrance constructed during the 1960s and 70s, and some post-1994 initiatives, and also related to ideas about citizenship and belonging.
