respondent of the Daily Mall in letter by
post describing the battle of Nicholson's Mex,
hears eloquent testimony to the humanity of
the Beers. He writes:
The Beers had their revenge for Dundee
and Elardslaagte. They took it, full measure,
in kindness. AS Atkins (the British SOLDIER
had tended their wounded and succored their
prisoners there, so they tended and suecored
him here.
"one commandant wished TO send the
wounded TO Pretoria. but the Others more
prudent as well as more humane, decided tc
send them back TO Ladysmlth. They gave
whole men the water out Of their own bottles
they gave the wounded blankets OFF their own
saddles and slept themselves on the naked
veldt They We're short of transport. but they
were mostly armed with Martins, yet they
gave the captured mules for hospital pau
ners and the captured Lee-Metiords for
splints,
