FOOTNOTES:
[1] Cape Colonists _versus_ Natives; also despatch of Sir Bartle
Frere, dated 12th February, 1879.
[2] Strange to say, this Captain Allen Gardiner met the same cruel
death some years afterwards, in South America.
[3] The names of the principal Englishmen killed are—R. Biggar,
Cane, Stubbs, Richard Wood, William Wood, Henry Batt, John
Campbell, Thomas Campbell, and Thomas Carden.
[4] The Dutch say 3000 Zulus were killed; but this is probably a
great exaggeration.
[5] Proclamation in the Government _Gazette_.
[6] Called after a Dutchman named Pieter Maritz.
[7] A little vessel, the _Mazeppa_, Captain Cato, escaped from the
inner harbour, although fired upon by the Boers, and proceeded to
Delagoa Bay in order to obtain assistance. She found no British
man-of-war there, and on her return to Natal H.M.S. _Southampton_
had arrived.
