Description

A rigid marbled folder with a plain paper label with cancelled inscriptions 'Bushman Genealogies' and '"Grimm's Law" in S. A.' -- replaced by 'Chas Thomas's MS.' -- containing C Thomas's MS for his 'History of Bishop Mackenzie's Mission to Central Africa' (c. 1872-3) along with related correspondence and notes (c. 1873-1876), MS.

Keyword

Charles Thomas (his MS), History of Bishop Mackenzie's Mission to Central Africa (bought for the Grey Library), JC Juta (Henry Solomon's letter to), LC Lloyd (letters to and notes by), Henry Solomon (letter to JC Juta), C Herman (letter to LC Lloyd)

Notes

Enclosed in a rigid cloth-bound folder - with its front and back faced with marbled paper - are 4 letters from Charles Thomas to WHI Bleek, some dated 1873, about Thomas's MS (F1.12.1-4). Thomas was a 'Negro' Makua interpreter to the late Charles Mackenzie, the first Anglican Bishop of Central Africa (d. 1862). Additionally, there is a letter from C Herman to Miss Lloyd about photographing 'the Negro' (Charles Thomas), dated 1876 (F1.12.5); part of a draft letter to Mr Marsh, who then employed Charles Thomas as a 'storeman', dated 1876 (F1.12.6); a receipt for £5 written by Lucy Lloyd and signed by Charles Thomas allowing the Grey Library to acquire his MS, dated 1876 (F1.12.7-8); some preliminary pages to the MS, by Dr Bleek and Lucy Lloyd (F.12.9-14); and a letter from Henry Solomon to Jan Carel Juta, dated 1873 (F1.12.16). Charles Thomas' (unpublished?) MS (F1.12.17-18) was partially corrected by Dr Bleek and retitled 'A Negro's History of Bishop Mackenzie's Mission'. Given Charles Thomas's (native name: Milī́kot?) strained signature when compared to the fluid script in 'his' letters, Thomas conceivably had someone else scribing for him. A note (by LC Lloyd?) inserted with F1.12.7 names Thomas's son and that man's sister-in-law as the scribes for his MS.
