Court of Appeal among Kafirs under Maritzburg minister
An observer describes a native court of appeal held in a ministerial office in Maritzburg. The scene contrasts old open-air justice with a modern, simple process where a kingly salute and direct access to the minister mark the proceedings. It recalls a brutal street execution carried out by Zapties, with shopkeepers profiting from the hanging logistics as crowds jeer.
