To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I was not there myself that day, but it appears that the whole of Lord Dundonald's brigade, com^DOsed as it is almost entirely of Colonials and Uitlanders, 154 BACK IN CAMP AGAIN. were omitted from the programme. There is considerable comment on this, and no little ill- feeling has been aroused, as this is not the first time this splendid body of irregulars has been overlooked. After Spion Kop General BuUer went round to every camp and said something nice, but the heroes of the battle (this reg...iment) and the rest of Dundonald's brigade were absolutely ignored. Let us hope it has been an oversight (though few believe it to be anything but an intentional slight), as we can ill afford in these days to treat our Colonial forces who have come so grandly to the Empire's aid with such scant courtesy. I wish you could have seen Thorneycroft's Mounted Infantry, the South African Light Horse, or the Natal Carabineers. They don't go in for dress, but they look like business, and good work have they done already.
