To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
An old Boer finds his son of fifteen years or thereabouts has stolen away, and has asked for a rifle from the veldkornet to join the troops. The old man in the end approves his son's desire "Behave as a man, " is his word of leave taking. Men of 80 and children of 14 stand up side by side against the forces of an immense Empire and the most terrible fire, that has ever swept a field of battle. In the Leek Times I read a beautiful description of this nation in arms; 71 "The old man, the youth an...d the stripling, are offering their heart's blood as a sacrifice; nor do they think the sacrifice too great, strengthened and urged on by all they believe to be the highest and holiest in religion and principle. The Boer will fight on, giving his last drop of blood and his last breath for this freedom. And the women-folk of his land are bearing their share of this task; they do not shrink; they are helping their fathers, brothers and sons in this fight. They think no distance too great to travel, no burden too heavy to carry.
