When General Botha arrived in Natal in the first days of May he asked the Standerton commando to return with him to the Free State. They flatly refused to go unless they were first allowed to spend a week at their homes, but Botha finally, after much begging, cajoling, and threatening, induced the burghers to go immediately.

"How dare you!" she cried indignantly.

The face of his old acquaintance had vanished; this was a cajoling, coquettish, smiling face, suggesting undreamed-of things. "Nu, yes," he replied, without perceptible pause.
