Vorentoe, Suid-Afrika!

Per the #Edison films catalog: "Here we have a mixed Company of Gordon #Highlanders, #Irish Fusilliers and #English #Lancers, as a group of prisoners taken to the rear by a troop of #Boer Cavalry. The expression of their faces show who is the victor, and who the vanquished. You can read in the dust and smoke-begrimed countenances of the prisoners, the story of their stubborn resistance to superior numbers before they surrender: while the Boers give expression to their feelings, by cheering and waving their hats in triumph as they pass by. 75 feet"
