'The famous Ultimatum had gone forth to the world. War had come at last. We, in Kimberley, were in for it - though happily unconscious of our destiny until it was revealed by the gradations of time. Nothing awful was anticipated. The future was veiled. The knowledge of what was to come was brought home to us by a gradual process that kept us permanently sane. Dull Kimberley was to be enlivened in a manner that made us wish it were dull again. We felt it from the first - the sense of imprisonment - the deprivation of liberty. But that was all, we thought - all that we should be called to endure. . . '
