Zululand correspondence (November 27, 1905 mentions Poll Tax leading to the BAMBATHA REBELLION Fred Boyce letter written Mangeni mentions "how pleased I will be to get the photos. I should like one of your Ian in uniform. The property on which we hold 4 claims each has been taken over by a developing syndicate. They intend going down 200 ft and if the reef is as good at that depth
as it is at the surface they will float at once. The Poll Tax here has caused great dissatisfaction among all classes. The natives here have refused to pay. There may be trouble when the tax is collected (or tried to be collected rather). The natives have lost all confidence in the Govt which is rotten. Getting ready for a prospecting trip. Pegging off is the order of the day now in Zululand. Copper is all
the rage".

Zululand correspondence (August 22, 1905) Fred Boyce letter on MINNESOTA MILL EXTRA STRONG wmk'd paper mentions "There is a bit of a boom on in Zululand Gold Fields just at present. All the
Johannesburg speculators seem to have had a “down” on poor old Zululand, but now they seem to be taking an interest. I have now 3 medals and 5 bars. I have fought through four wars since I came here; been in some very tight corners. I lost
nearly every head of cattle I had by xxxx pest, and now we are threatened by a new plague called East Grass fever which is most deadly".
