Protests against annexation to the Cape and expresses fear of losing the land; requests that the sale of brandy be forbidden for fear that it will cause fighting; also fears that their land will be given to the British South Africa Company; as the Barolong are a loyal, industrious nation, why does the British Government want to get rid of them?; refers to his division of the land among individual members of the tribe; the petition is being carried by his son Wessels and Stephen Lefeynya to the Queen.
