This pencil sketch of March 1839, done on the spot, has as its subject a meeting between Andries Pretorius, leader of the Voortrekkers, and Dingane's emissaries. The artist is given as J.A. Harding. There is some interesting detail. Pretorius and two of his men wear hats decorated with ostrich feathers. A spectacled man records the proceedings in a book. Beside him a child holds the inkpot.
