Government of which Lords Kitchener and Milner are the heads being accepted. An arrangement of
this nature would, it seems to me, be an insurmountable difficulty. When I feel so strongly in this
matter, it would not be fair to their Excellencies for me to remain silent.”
Lord Kitchener : “ I think it would be better if General de Wet were to wait until he has seen the
whole document before he gives his opinion.”
It was then agreed that Judge Hertzog and General Smuts should act as a sub-committee, in order to
draw up a complete draft with Lord Kitchener, who was to be assisted by Sir Richard Solomon.
The meeting then adjourned.
On Wednesday, 21st May, 1902, the Conference reassembled.
Lord Milner laid before the meeting the document which he had drawn up with the help of the subcommittee. It was in the form of a contract, and the names of the members of both Governments were
now filled in. The document was the same as that telegraphed, with the exception of Article II,
dealing with the notes and receipts and the sum of three million pounds.
It was read in Dutch and English, and ran as follows :—
“ General Lord Kitchener of Khartoum, Commander-in-Chief, and His Excellency Lord Milner, High
Commissioner, on behalf of the British Government ;
“ Messrs. S. D. Burger, F. W. Reitz, Louis Botha, J. H. De la Rey, L. J. Meyer, and J. C. Krogh, on
behalf of the Government of the South African Republic and its burghers ;
“ Messrs. M. T. Steyn, W. J. C. Brebner, C. R. de Wet, J. B. M. Hertzog, and C. H. Olivier, on behalf
of the Government of the Orange Free State and its burghers, being anxious to put an end to the
existing hostilities, agree on the following points :—
“ Firstly, the burgher forces now in the Veldt shall at once lay down their arms, and surrender all the
guns, small arms and war stores in their actual possession, or of which they have cognizance ; and
shall refrain from any further opposition to the authority of His Majesty King Edward VII., whom they
acknowledge as their lawful sovereign.
“ The manner and details of this surrender shall be arranged by Lord Kitchener, Commandant-General
Botha, Assistant Commandant-General J. H. De la Rey, and Commander-in-Chief de Wet.
