CO48/74 National Archives, Kew, London  ~   Selected Settler Correspondence for 1825

 

Transcribed by volunteers from the ZA-IB and ZA-EC Rootsweb mailing lists from digital photographs taken by Sue Mackay at the National Archives. The original correspondence is filed in order of receipt. Here it has been placed in alphabetical order according to the surname of the writer, with letters by the same writer in chronological order, for ease of reading. Original spelling has been maintained.

 

Letters were either addressed to Lord BATHURST, Secretary of State for the Colonies, (starting My Lord), or to his deputy Robert WILMOT-HORTON (starting Sir). Reference numbers, where given, refer to printed page numbers stamped on the letters and will enable visitors to the National Archives to locate the letter more easily. If a page number is not given then the date of the letter will give a good idea of its whereabouts in the file.

 

ALL the 1819 correspondence was transcribed (see CO48/41 through CO48/46) whether or not the writers emigrated to the Cape, and the names of actual settlers appeared in red. Here only letters by known settlers or their families, or letters of great relevance to the 1820 settlers, have been transcribed, therefore no colour distinction has been used. In many cases further letters by the correspondents below are filed with the 1819/1820 correspondence.

Hon’ble Sir,

                My brother Christopher ADCOCK went to the Cape of Good Hope in 1819, but his first intention not succeeding he was driven to try his trade of a tallow chandler, and his conduct gaining him the approbation of the officers and authorities of the district in which he was located he was induced to memoralize Lord Charles SOMERSET for his recommendation to Earl BATHURST for His Majesty’s Government to provide conveyance for any utensils his friends in England might send him. This his Lordship was kind enough to accede (as you will find by the inclosed document) but at that time we had not the means to [second?] the liberality of his Lordship and I heard nothing further untill this month when my brother informs me he is still in great difficulties for want of utensils; and could supply the colony (in and near Graham’s Town) with the necessary article candles if his friends could assist him. They are willing to subscribe for that purpose to purchase articles according to the inclosed list and humbly pray His Majesty’s Government to forward such things as originally granted by Earl BATHURST; and it will confer a lasting obligation on them and your humble devoted servant

Sir,

            In consequence of a letter from Earl BATHURST of the 13th instant directing that conveyance may be provided to the Cape of Good Hope for certain articles which Mr. ADCOCK, a settler in that colony, has petitioned His Majesty’s Government to forward to him in order to enable him to carry on his trade, I am commanded by the Commissioners of the Navy to desire to be furnished with an account of these articles and their tonnage.

I am Sir your humble servant

Hon’ble Sir,

                        After some inquiry as to the bulk and weight of the articles which the friends of my brother propose sending to him to Graham’s Town, I find they will not exceed five tons tonnage or about one ton actual weight. Should this meet the approbation of Earl BATHURST it will confer a great obligation on them and I have most sincerely to thank you for your kind attention.

Remaining your obliged humble servant

Sir,

            I have taken the liberty of addressing the envelope of the enclosed communication to you in consequence of Mr. HAY’s having mentioned his intention of leaving town (on Thursday last) and shall be happy to call at your office whenever it will suit your convenience.

I have the honor to be

[Enclosed letter to R. HAY Esq, Under Sec’y of State, Colonial Department]

London

December 16th 1825

Sir,

            Owing to the great deficiency of agricultural and mechanical labour which has long prevailed throughout the British settlement of Albany and serious depression arising from that circumstance it was some time back thought advisable by the settlers that some person acquainted with the particulars of their situation should proceed with a memorial to His Majesty’s Government, praying for assistance in removing the evil complained of by supplying the expence of transport to a number of emigrants of the various descriptions required. Relative to this I beg to inform you Sir that I am the person deputed by the inhabitants of Albany for the above purpose, and having delivered to His Excellency the Governor of the Colony the memorial above mentioned I beg to announce to you my arrival in England and that I am now ready to give any information in my power on the subject that you may require, and shall also be able to superintend the collection embarkation &c of the persons composing the emigration should it eventually be the pleasure of His Majesty’s Government to comply with the wishes of the settlers.

            In order that the proof of the actual demand for labour and the due provision to be made for the people sent out might not rest upon mere assertion, a Tabular Document was prepared whereby the subscribers bind themselves to provide for a certain number of labourers according to particular terms therein stated. This document I presume has been forwarded to Earl BATHURST by His Excellency Lord Charles SOMERSET together with such representations as I trust will bring the case under his most serious consideration.

            I shall now Sir proceed to detail to you the number and description of persons required by the subscribers of the above mentioned document, and also the rates of wages proposed to be given.

            The aggregate number of mechanical and agricultural labourers together with the women and children amounts to 771, viz

 

Mechanics of the descriptions required                105

Agricultural labourers                                          200

Adult females                                                      71

Boys between the ages of 16 & 18 years               90

Boys under the age of 15 years                           190

Girls under the age of 15 years                            115

Total                                                                 771

 

The rates of wages proposed to be given to the different descriptions of emigrant are as follows, viz.

 

To mechanics 250 Rixdollars Cape currency or £18 15s sterling per annum, making the daily rate of 1s 2d½ nearly. To this is to be added the daily allowance of 2lbs of meat and 1½ lbs of bread, which taken at 10d brings the whole to something more than 2s p. diem.

To agricultural labourers 150 Rds or £11 5s sterling per annum being 8d½ daily, which added to provisions as above makes in all 1s 6d p. diem.

To boys between the ages of 16 and 18, 100 Rds or £7 10s sterling per annum, being 5d¾ daily and with food as above makes in all 1s 3d¾ p. diem.

To female adults 80 Rds or £6 sterling per annum being 4d½ daily and together with 1½ lbs of meat and 1lb of bread makes in all 11d½ p. diem.

Children under the age of 15 are offered clothes and food only.

 

            Relative to the period for which the services of the emigrants are to be engaged, I beg to state Sir that it is the general wish of the subscribers that the adult males and females should be indentured for 3 years, the boys between the ages of 16 and 18 until they are 21, and the children under 15 years of age until they are 18.

            It is not Sir for a moment to be supposed that the number of labourers &c stated above will be sufficient for the whole settlement, as it will at once be seen that the subscribers to the document above alluded to compose but a small portion of the inhabitants, but this circumstance alone will enable you to judge of the great extent to which labour is required.

            In the memorial which I had the honor to present to Lord Charles SOMERSET the petitioners pray that His Excellency will recommend to His Majesty’s Government the expediency of providing the means of transport to the emigrants required, as owing to the reduced state of their funds it will be found quite impossible to meet the expence themselves. For the truth of this latter circumstance I can fully vouch, and His Excellency Lord Charles SOMERSET being also well aware of the same assured me whilst in Cape Town that he would use his interest with Earl BATHURST in supporting the prayer of the petitioners; should it however be ultimately the determination of His Majesty’s Government to advance the sum requisite for the emigration, merely by way of loan, I beg Sir to say that I am not at present prepared to give an opinion as to the most practicable mode of repaying the same, this not having been contemplated by the petitioners previous to my leaving Albany.

            In conclusion Sir may I presume to take the liberty of requesting that in bringing this subject under the consideration of Earl BATHURST you will not fail to impress upon his Lordship the vital importance of it to the welfare of the British settlement in Albany, and I have no doubt that the interest and attention which has on all occasions been so conspicuously displayed by his Lordship towards that class of His Majesty’s subjects, will not be wanting on this.

I have the honor to be Sir

Your most obed’t humble serv’t

The humble petition of John DIPLOCK and others

Sheweth

            That in the year 1819 one Richard GOWER, then of Greenwich in the County of Kent, Plumber and Glazier, was induced with his family consisting of a wife (Mary GOWER) and three children to emigrate to His majesty’s settlements at the Cape of Good Hope, taking with him a considerable property which he had saved in this country.

            That the said Richard GOWER on his arrival at the Cape settled in Graham’s Town where he used every exertion to support himself and family but in consequence of the failure of the crops and other misfortunes he was reduced to great extremities which ultimately caused his death in the month of July last leaving his said wife the said Mary GOWER and her three helpless children (the eldest only 10 years old) entirely destitute in a strange land.

            That your petitioners are advised that in cases of such extremity Government have in some instances granted free passages home to this country and your petitioners being unable to send her the means of returning and conceiving that this is a case for the merciful consideration of Government.

            Your petitioners therefore trusting to the well known humanity of your Lordship prays that you will be graciously pleased to take the case of the said Mary GOWER and her said three children into your serious consideration and order them a free passage to England and petitioners as in duty bound will pray.

Sir,

            With reference to my letter of the 4th ultimo inclosing a petition from the friends of Mary GOWER praying a free passage home from the Cape of Good Hope for herself and children, I shall esteem it a particular favour your obtaining an early answer thereto.

I have the honour to be Sir

Your most obed’t serv’t

Cape of Good Hope

July 12th 1825

My Lord,

            I have resided in this colony near five years during which time I have not presumed to address your Lordship. I am the person who in 1818 proposed to make the Funded Property transferrable to Bearer; which plan Mr. VANSITTERT declared in the House of Commons would have rendered our Banking System “as perfect as any thing of this nature could be made.” The public distress occasioned the subject to be much discussed & my pamphlet was treated with very great respect in the {Antiquarian?] and two other magazines. The principle I recommended was attended to by distant countries & even the Cape Town Exchange was built by money raised on Bonds payable to the Bearer. (Very distinguished statesmen received me with the greatest courtesy – but I was told from authority that unless my plan was adopted I could not expect a remuneration.

            I had been despoiled of my property by placing undue confidence in a relation. Lord SIDMOUTH advised my coming to the Cape of Good Hope and Mr. CANNING furnished me with a letter of recommendation to the Colonial Secretary. With a very little property, honorably bestowed upon me (which Mr. CANNING, Mr. WILBERFORCE and Lord CALTHORPE kindly augmented) I established myself at Cape Town as a Teacher of the English Language. I so fully succeeded that my income increased to above two hundred Rix dollars a month: a system of forgery being at this time discovered I was induced to lay before the Government my plan for preventing forgery in the case of the intended Funded Securities. The Colonial Receiver General at once entered into my views & all the Rix Dollars issued after March 1821 were formed agreeably to my instructions. I will not trouble your Lordship with a detail of my minor services. I was sent for to the Colonial Office and as an acknowledgement of my services I was appointed Resident Custom House Officer of Port Elizabeth with a salary of 100 Rix dollars per month. I particularly expressed my hope that the appointment was intended as introductory to a higher rank & in a letter which I afterwards wrote to England & which the Colonial Secretary admired I stated that I considered myself as being “educated for office”.

            The real object of this letter is to solicit an appointment by which I can procure for my family the necessaries of life. It was announced in the Cape Town Gazette that the Clerk of the Council was not yet named, and at the suggestion of a most respectable person who knew my habits & saw my struggles (that I was unable to purchase the most homely cloathing) I wrote as follows to His Excellency in Council.

            “as the advertisement advertising the non appointment of a clerk to your august body may possibly be intended as an invitation to candidates, I should ill fulfil the duty I owe to my very large family if I refused to enter into the ranks as an humble applicant – that I may at once be acquitted of the charge of being dissatisfied when possessing the conveniences of life, I beg leave to state that my present salaries amount to about 3Rds 4sh per diem. I would submit to the most rigid economist the following scale of my expenses.

Bread                                        1Rd

Meat                                         1Rd

[Vegetables?], milk        }          

[Obscured] & firewood    }           1Rd

[Obscured] & candles     }

Tea or coffee & sugar                 4sh

Leaving nothing for cloathes for my large family

Nothing for servants wages

Nothing for wine

Nothing for linen

Nothing for furniture

Nothing for illnesses

Nothing for lyings in

Nothing for hospitality &c

I must therefore run in debt for all these necessaries: I have hitherto by the peculiar providence of God [been] supported; but humanly speaking I see nothing but Debt & its infallible consequences of impaired health for my future years.

            As a Public Functionary at Port Elizabeth His Majesty’s Colonial Council would censure me if I withheld from them on proper occasions a just statement of my civil and political relations - in the case of the Brig Venus, the Lady Flora, the St.Antonio and the George the Fourth I acted contrary to my instructions and received the approbation of the head of my department: and in the affair of the Stedcombe I gave general satisfaction.”

            I enumerated other services and made the usual professions of attachment and fidelity. A friend has now informed me that the appointment of the Clerk of the Council is reserved by the home Government, and I feel no difficulty in addressing the Ministers of my beloved country as a Freeholder of Middlesex & as a Liveryman of London. I voted for their supporters and I have been in the Committee Room at a [constituency?] election, when my life was in danger – a refusal therefore of my request will bring with it the pleasure of a letter from home, and my application will be treated with respect altho’ it may be unsuccessful.

            Mr. CANNING is so kind as to permit me occasion to forward through him a letter to my son and I have felt an enjoyment in relating to him my fondness for this country to which he in some measure introduced me: but I have little hope that he can interest himself further on my behalf – it appears to me he never had a patron & that he would be ashamed of those who required one.

            Referring to any attachment to this colony, your Lordship will perhaps think I ought to say a few words in support of my opinions. The improbability of my ever leaving the Cape of Good Hope may have induced an attention to every supposed latent advantage, and I hope an acquiescence in the appointment of Providence may have produced a degree of satisfaction – yet I think this country absolutely good for rich and poor. Gentlemen of small fortunes in England would rank as noblemen in the Cape of Good Hope and industrious people are even more [obscured] than men of large estate. I could employ ten thousand British labourers – [you?] can hardly get anyone to wait upon you. His majesty has no subjects more loyal than the British inhabitants of this colony and I think some plan might be thought of to gratify our feelings in respect to our interests & being equally under the safeguard of the [obscured] Estate with those of the remote islands of Scotland. I wrote a paper some time since which I have enclosed. I do not think the description of Algoa Bay too highly colored and this week’s Gazette announces that the returning India ships in general avoid Table Bay in consequence of an additional premium of insurance being required. I have therefore induced the inhabitants of Port Elizabeth to petition for a wharf and I suppose the petition will be forwarded by this port.

            I shall not disturb my peace by the slightest reference to Colonial politics, and I ought to beg pardon for being carried beyond the original object of this letter & for addressing your Lordship without a previous copy. I shall conclude my present address by expressing my hope that the same councils will continue to direct the affairs of the British Empire. I think it would give your Lordship pleasure to witness the appetite with which an Englishman in South Africa devours the contents of a London newspaper and I feel as much alive to the Quarterly Statement of the Revenue as any frequentor of the [Cyder Cellar??]

This reduction of duties I may almost say is a criterion of the wisdom of the age – may no unforeseen vicissitudes derange the wise design

I am my Lord with the greatest respect

My Lord,

            About the beginning of the year [1820] my brother Charles EVANS went out to the Cape of Good Hope as a settler there, since which [period] I have heard no tidings of him whether he be alive or dead. If you have it in your power to give me any information respecting him I shall esteem it a great favour if your Lordship will be pleased to direct one of your clerks to drop me a few lines to satisfy the enquiries of his anxious relatives.

NEWLAND, William

Church Gate, Cheshunt

14 June 1825

Address: 4 Middleton Terrace, Pentonville, London

My Lord,

            As I understand that it is the ardent wish of the clergy and many respectable persons at the Cape of Good Hope that a Classical Institution be established under the auspices of Government, and knowing at the same time that His Majesty’s Ministers are most [obscured] and most active in doing everything in their power for the instruction of the Colonies, I have taken the liberty of addressing your Lordship on this very important subject. When the Rev. Dr. THOM of the Dutch Church at Caledon was in this country he informed me that your Lordship was favourable to the establishment of a College at the Cape and he was most pressing that I should come out in the view of forwarding an object so much calculated to promote the civilisation and tranquillity of the Colonies. The expense attending such an establishment is perhaps hitherto the only thing which has hitherto retarded this design, but I can assure your Lordship that the expense will not be great & that a number of efficient and well qualified teachers may easily be procured. I hope the [obscured] of the plan will no longer be delayed. The erection of buildings will be the principal expense, the salaries of the teachers need not be large as their principal [obscured] may be derived from the fees of the students. A great part of the expense attending the erection of [obscured] may be defrayed by voluntary subscriptions to be raised in the Colony.

            If His Majesty’s Ministers would signify their wish to cooperate with the Colony in the establishment of a College and that they were willing to bear two [obscured] of the expense attending the erection of the buildings and to appoint six professors with a specified salary, [who] would be sufficient in the first instance as the same professor might teach two or three branches, from the desire for education existing in the Colony the [remaining] expense might be left with the friends of colonists.

            Having an ardent desire to be useful in extending the blessings of education to which my life has been devoted I should feel it an honour to be employed by His Majesty’s Ministers in any way in which I might be useful in carrying into effect this laudable design. But as your Lordship cannot be expected to communicate with a stranger without knowing something of his character and qualifications it may be necessary to state that I am a minister or rather licentiate of the Church of England and that I have been employed for several years in giving instruction in the Latin, Greek and Hebrew languages and mathematics and several other departments of education.

            Of my moral and religious character, of my qualifications and success as a teacher, particularly [as] a man designed for the work of the ministry I can produce the most respectable and satisfactory testimonials. I have carried my instructions to the highest [obscured] and Roman [classics?]. For one thing I have been particular in inspiring my pupils with a passion for literature. I am well known to all the ministers of the Established Church in London. I have studied nine years at the University of Glasgow and if your Lordship should grant me an interview or be disposed to [obscured] on this proposal I will present such [obscured] will leave no doubt in the mind of your Lordship as to my fitness for this undertaking. I should be much obliged by an early answer addressed to me at the Rev. Edward IRVING’s, 4 Middleton Terrace, Pentonville. I have taken the liberty of presenting your Lordship with a copy of my essay on education of which I beg your Lordship’s kind acceptance.

I have the honour to be, my Lord

Your Lordship’s obedient humble servant

Wm. NEWLAND

 

PS As I intend leaving this place on Monday next, that is Cheshunt Herts where I now reside, I have requested your Lordship to address to me at my friend the Rev. Edward IRVING, from whose address I have been induced to write this communication to your Lordship, as it may not be convenient for your Lordship to favour me with an answer in the course of this week.

 

SHEPHERD, William

 

379

My Lord,

            Permit me to address your Lordship on behalf of ninety three persons whose petition I presented to your Lordship through the medium of the Colonial Office sent from the Rt. Hon’ble Lord Charles SOMERSET. In an interview I have had with Mr. HAY I was informed that the petitioners’ request would not be complied with except some engagement was entered into on the part of the settlers, or some portion of the large wages his Lordship speaks of in his dispatches was set aside for the reimbursing of Government for the expence.

            Permit me my Lord to say (as one whom they have appointed to speak in their behalf; and one who from my long residence and sufferings amongst them speak feelingly) that I am not prepared to make any offer in their behalf; & few of them are in a condition to make it; give me leave to state to your Lordship that the settlers of South Africa are not on a level with the settlers of other colonies owing to the visitations of Providence which blasted the crops the first four years, added to the loss of cattle by the depredations of the Caffres which reduced many to beggary; also the flood which happened in the year 1823 which swept away the hopes of many more: from this low estate your Lordship will perceive they have had but the last year & present of prosperity and that their savings must have been wholly [employed] & will be for some time in recovering their losses and providing houses to receive their families in, in hopes your Lordship’s liberal government will again unite them to their long absent wives & children.

            In testimony of these facts my Lord allow me to inclose for your perusal the “Report of the Committee at Cape Town for the Relief of the Distresses Settlers” * and the annexed list with the names of the petitioners, with their families and [employees], by which your Lordship will perceive that the bulk of them are of that class most calculated to increase the prosperity of the Colony, & in recommendation of which your Lordship has the signatures of the Landrosts & gentlemen of the District.

            The petitioners feel grateful for all the kindness & attention your Lordship’s government has bestowed on them, but still feel that anxious [solicitude?] for their families rejoining them (many of whom are a burthen to the public here & in Ireland & that the selling of their little all would be insufficient to pay the expence of their transport) which makes them thus appeal to the humanity of the Home Government for the accomplishment of their wishes, without which the good intentions of Government in sending them out will be frustrated.

I am my Lord

Your Lordship’s most obed’t humble serv’t

Wm. SHEPHERD
