Dingaan

How the O'Neils came to the Transvaal—Boers with Irish names—Oom Paul's refusal to buy Delagoa Bay—The Boers break for freedom—Their bloody battles with the savage tribes—The Great Trek—Dingaanzulu's treachery—The Dingaan Day celebration.

All self-respecting Boer families join in the Dingaan Day celebration, many of them coming scores of miles to do so.

It caused Dingaan, instead of using force, to resort to treachery—treachery which was very nearly being the death of me, though in the end things turned out well.”

Mr Scheren told me some terrible stories of Dingaan’s cruelty and rapacity.

I was much interested in the history you gave us the other day of the colony, and King Chaka and his brother Dingaan.
