Hi all

Forgive me I am on my phone and cannot copy and post.

I have come across an account of the battle of Isandlwana and Rorke's Drift in a New Zealand Newspaper:

Google: "Natal Witness Archive 1879" scroll down to website "paperspast.natlib.govt.nz", enter and read the account.

There are a few details that differ to what I have read up to now. I don't know if this has been mentioned before, so please forgive me if it has.

Regards Eddie

Thank you Kate

Seems to be some different opinion on timings in this account, I wonder what others think, in particular Dunfords arrival time in the article.
