or on the other hand whether it was talented to them by the Transvaal government,
doesn't refute the way that this exchange happened inside the more extensive event of pilgrim relations," he said.
"The English government should have its impact in breaking this pioneer relationship by recognizing the job that it played."

is to quit utilizing our assets during their services, on the grounds that … we are never again part of the English Realm.".
