Porter about it.

I have had a busy week - the
same old see-saw between Pretoria
and Johannesburg. I hope another week
will see the end of it. To-morrow
I have to make a wild rush down
to Machadodorp on the Swazi
Border to try to redd up a
tangle there. I must say I am
rather proud of my Lands Act. It
is nearly entirely my own work, &
is better than any other Colonial
Land Laws that I know.

I have been sair troubled
this week with the Master of Elibank.
