Mrs Lipp was determined to remain and support ther husband, but they sent their children to the coast with relatives The Diary was kept for the period immediately before the granting of the Ultimatum by the British Government until the occupation of the British troops under Lord Roberts on 31 May 1900 - a period of just under eight months.
