Untitled extract from newspaper article in the Manchester Guardian

Scope and Content

Untitled extract from newspaper article in the Manchester Guardian, including telegrams sent by the British government during negotiations with the government of the South African Republic, containing a [South African] charge of a breach of faith, the treatment of the Outlanders [Uitlanders], [British] non-interference and suzerainity [of the Transvaal], and the use of the English language by Outlanders [Uitlanders] in the Volksraad.

The reverse side contains an extract from a published letter, criticising the stance of the Manchester Guardian in advocating peace at almost any cost, which has failed to persuade the public and made the Boers more obstinate. The author defends [Joseph] Chamberlain, politician, whom they believe is acting in good faith, and believes that the Boers are ready to contest British supremacy in South Africa.

Attached is a printed copy of the complete letter published in the Manchester Guardian.
