The time is just before the battle of Majuba, during the 1st Anglo Boer War. Pieter's eldest son, Jakob, born in 1840, is now an adult with a family of his own - his wife Magdalena and his two children, Frederik and Thea. The patriarch, Pieter de Witt, now in his sixties, is also still there. Jakob and Frederik return from the battle of Schuinshoogte, satisfied that the Englishmen have finally learnt their lesson. Young Frederik's blood runs hot with the excitement of his first fully-fledged battle and he has a helmet as a trophy of the first English soldier that he shot. But old man Pieter is opposed to the war: "The English always come back," is his warning to Jakob. Shortly thereafter the commandos are called back to Majuba. Only one Boer soldier fell in battle at Majuba. Written by Martin J Hutton See less
