Early in the nineteenth century there were four small semi-independent Griqua states in the Trans-Orange, each reigned over by its own Head or Kaptyn. They were of the greatest importance to British authority in the Cape, as well as to the London Missionary Society. This volume contains a collection of official and semi-official documents concerning the Captaincy in Phillipolis, in the later Free State, from 1826 to 1861, when it was transferred to Kokstad in Griqualand East. The documents give a detailed picture of a poorly documented aspect of our history.
