Note 7 — I.

Much of the earlier history of the Colony will be found in the following works: N. Isaacs, Travels and Adventures in Eastern Africa, 2 vols. London, 1836; Capt. Allen F. Gardiner, A Journey to the Zoolu Country, London, 1836; H.F. Fynn, Papers, printed in part on pp. 60-124, vol. i. Bird's Annals of Natal, Pietermaritzburg, 1888.

Up to the day of his death, Fynn, the friend of Isaacs and the source from which the latter drew much of the information in the work above quoted, was the final authority on all matters appertaining to the Natives of South-East Africa. He, fortunately, left a number of valuable manuscripts. These are being prepared for the press by the author. They include a large quantity of matter connected with early Zulu history, customs and habits hitherto unpublished.
