South Africa- Kaffir Wars two outstanding letters describing in considerable detail events during the Kaffir Wars, dated July 15th and September 30th 1845, both letters were written by a Stephen Tayler, writing from Uitenhage (Eastern Cape Province), to his sister. ‘…I wish there were peace but what can be done? Here are the Kaffirs roving about stealing, burning and murdering – a few nights ago they came to Sandfontein Farm, about 6 miles from this and carried off near 200 head of cattle, they were immediately pursued by the Patrols and others and the cattle recaptured after a skirmish in which one of our own men was stabbed and 10 Kaffirs killed. As the greater part of the repairs to the arms is done, I am again obliged to be out on patrol every fourth day. Seven men out of which there were perhaps only 4 that go, the others getting off on some excuses. Start at daylight every morning and ride into the country 10 or 12 miles making a bit of a tour to the neighbouring farms, to see that all is right and returning again by evening. If there is any reason to believe that there are certainly Kaffirs in the Plain – we go out perhaps 20 or more strong… ‘a fresh levy was called for from the Eastern Districts and in this town the Field Cornet was ordered to select 17 horsemen from the inhabitants to follow the Army into Kaffirland – he first separated the unmarried men from the Cavalry 21 men or about half of the force, these, as only threatenings and not actual punishments had been inflicted on the disobedient, were the men who had done all the duty hitherto…20 men are ordered from the District they should start in a few days – whether they will is uncertain…by some bluncer in the order, the Burghers defending some of the Colonial Posts left, they are continually passing here on their way home, they did not want much telling, they are glad to turn their backs on the Frontier – the great number on foot carrying their baggage in the wagons – the greater number of the horses having starved to death. It is hoped that these outposts may be immediately occupied or the Kaffirs may take advantage of it and pour into the Colony. Money, men and supplies are anxiously looked for from England for though the Western people may settle down with comparative comfort, the Eastern cannot till the matter is settled – several farmers that were patriarchs in flocks have lost hundreds of sheep and cattle and some their all, their houses, their implements and even their children, privation and anxiety have done their work upon many – an immense amount of property has been destroyed…the Kaffirs say they want peace, to suits their convenience, they have captured a fine number of horses, cattle, sheep etc and would like to have time to enjoy them…’ (part of letter written on September 30th) The Kaffir Wars lasted more than 100 years and were caused by the dual expansion and migration of the Xhosa indigenous population (then called Kaffirs) and the white settlers both British and Dutch. Conflict became inevitable as the competition for land and water grew more intense. The events described in these letters belonged to the Seventh of the Wars, known as ‘The War of the Axe’ because it was sparked by the stealing of an Axe by a Xhosa tribesman named Tsili. This was seized upon by the British as a pretext for war – mainly because important issues from the previous war remained unresolved. The result of two years of fighting were that the Xhosa were pushed ever further east, and thousands of tribesmen starved. Letters containing such graphic and extensive details as these are rarely found. Both come with typed transcripts.

Provenance. Schloss Blankenburg. The significance of the date 1717 on this group of halberds remains unclear. Ludwig Rudolph received the Earldom of Blankenburg am Harz in 1707. In complete violation of the rule of primogeniture the Earldom was raised to a Principality with all the rights of an Independant Sovereign State, in the centre of which Ludwig Rudolph created a lavish Court. In 1731, following the death of his brother, August Wilhelm, Ludwig Rudolph reunited Blankenburg and Wolfenbüttel and ruled them together briefly until 1735. The present halberd would have been made for the Court at Blankenburg. A number of these were sold Sotheby`s Hanover October 2005, lots 773-777.
