What little there is of this portion of the history of the Colony is now antiquated, and no writer has given particulars of the British Settlers themselves, their experiences after arrival, and their troubles and trials before the severe sufferings they had to endure by successive Kafir wars. The history of these wars is full enough, in which the British military forces figure prominently with dis- tinction, while the ruin Settlers themselves is hardly alluded to.of the Many circumstances anything in this directionprevented my attempting whilst resident in Graham's Town.
