This pretended Secret Agent of the War-Intelligence-Bureau that never existed, and who called himself Van Busch a name that's as common among Boers as Murphy is among Irishmen arranged to pass off my wife as his sister, a refugee from Gueldersdorp, who'd married a German drummer, and buried him not long before.

The Major coughed, and went on: "My wife came across that man at Tweipans under curious circumstances, which I'm here to put before you as plainly as may be.... She'd met him before the Siege, travelling up from Cape Town. He scraped acquaintance, called himself a loyal Johannesburger, and an Agent of the British South African War-Intelligence-Bureau. Not that there ever was such a Bureau."
