Plaatje, S T, To Bra [Silas Molema]

Refers to meeting in Thaba Nchu and the work of the "Committee" to raise money; as Thaba Nchu alone has given 250, the aim of the committee should be to collect 500 or mere in the Orange Free State, Transvaal and Bechuanaland; requests Molema to pass on news to committee; refers to a meeting of the Bechuanaland chiefs with the Duke of Connaught at Gaborones on November 24 and suggests interview between chiefs and Mr Jabavu or Mr Makgothi, Mr Masibi or Rev Goronyane.

[Plaatje, G T]. To Bra [Silas Molema, Mafeking]

Has just returned from Thaba Nchu where he attended a successful meeting; Molema's proposal was not put forward and advises him to contact Rev Gorenyane; has troubles which will place Chief Joshua in serious difficulties, Molema must make an address to the "Duke" of Connaught but must first consult Mr Algie as to whether it should be made in Mafeking or Gaberones.

Plaatje, S T, Kimberley. To Bra [Silas Molema, Mafeking]

Refers to financial problems and debts; Harriet (Molema) is happy; is not keen that she work for Mr Hlangwana; has recently heard that there are a few vacancies for teachers at the Lutheran School of R Brune and a school for Whites belonging to the School Board housed in the buildings of the Wesleyan Church; would prefer her to take either of these positions as the pay is more certain.
