Hi Littlehand,

That picture of Dinilzulu and a group of whites were in fact the infamous Miss Colenso ( a missionary), on her right R.C.Samuleson ( the leader of the Driefontein Scouts and a missionary ) . On Dinizulu's right are lawyers Eugene Renaud (standing) and on his left, sitting, W.P.Schreiner. These people were the defence team at Dinizulu's trial in Greytown in 1907, where the picture was taken.

regards

barry

Always fascinating to put a few faces to these names.
Pascal will I am sure be excited to learn that the lady is in fact, the infamous Miss Colenso.
A lovely image of her and them all. I see a strong resemblence to the good king Cetshwayo.

I think, the mady on the photo is Harriette COLENSO, the sister of Frances.
"DINIZULU was arrested in 1907 and was charged with having incited the poll tax disturbances of the previous year.
Once again Harriette "was at the forefront of his defense, organising his legal representation and arguing his case in the press." p.15-16
