It was the wet season, and the movement of the troops stationed at the Umgazi, who were designed for that service, had to be delayed till the following March. In that month THE STORY OF THE ZULUS 97 Captain Smith began his march; he reached his destination early in May 1842, and established a camp near the Port. The Boer authorities, having sent him formal protests, which he declined to receive, began to collect at Congela, where they were soon in considerable force. On the 23rd of the month Co...mmandant-General Pretorius demanded that Captain Smith should instantly break up his camp and withdraw across the borders of the territory which the Boers claimed, besides paying the expenses incurred, threatening war unless these demands were complied with. Captain Smith determined to attack the Boer camp, which he accordingly did, with disastrous results to himself, the same evening. The Boers were prepared for his advance, and suddenly rained a deadly shower of bullets upon him from behind trees, killing seventeen and wounding thirty-one of his men, and forcing him to retire to his camp.
