“ His Majesty’s Government has received from the Government of Cape Colony a statement of
their opinion as regards the terms to be offered to British subjects of the Cape Colony who are still in
the Veldt or who have surrendered since April 12th, 1901. The terms are as follows :—In regard to
the burghers, they all, on their surrender, after having laid down their arms, shall sign a document
before a resident magistrate of the district in which their surrender has taken place, in which
document they shall declare themselves guilty of high treason ; and their punishment, in the event of
their not having been guilty of murder, or of other deeds in contradiction to the customs of civilized
warfare, shall be that for the rest of their lives they shall not be registered as voters, nor shall they be
able to vote in Parliamentary, district, or municipal elections. As regards justices and veldtcornets of
the Cape Colony, and all other persons who had occupied official positions under the Government of
Cape Colony, and all who held the rank of commandant in the rebel or burgher forces, they shall be
brought on the charge of high treason before the ordinary Courts of the country, or before such special
Courts as later on may legally be constituted. The punishment for their misdeeds shall be left to the
discretion of the Court, with this reservation, that in no case shall capital punishment be inflicted.
“ The Government of Natal is of opinion that the rebels should be judged by the laws of the
Colony.”
The meeting now adjourned.

task of making copies of the proposal of the British Government for the use of the national
representatives at Vereeniging. This work kept them engaged until the evening.
