    The speaker agrees to be informed by about the question of slave trade in East Africa but he was imperfectly informed therefore he looked at it using general principles. He further point out that the situation of slave trade in East Africa is totally different from that of West African slave trade therefore techniques which were used in the past to deal with slavery cannot be deemed reliable to deal with their own situation of slavery so he suggests that they should come up with new tactics because firstly they cannot compared their situation with the one in West Africa because slave trade in the west had its origins which were supported by the Christian nations who were willing to even transport slaves from Africa to their colonies for their own benefits when they realized their inhumane actions they made it their responsibility to put an end to slavery and their means were different therefore theirs should be different to. so the measures which the speaker suggested to be put in place to end slavery were to limit slave trade by putting an end to selling of slaves in the markets, he suggests to put pressure on the leaders to stop the import of slaves and making it difficult for them to break laws against the slave trade.

WO 32/7805: Overseas: South Africa (Code 0(AU)): Preparations for Advance against Boers... - 2 views

  • I arrived here on the llth instant, and found the force assembled here under Colonel Deane in good health and spirits and in excellent order, and all preparations for an advance being rapidly pushed forward

      The significance of this quoted line reveals how the state of African armies (particularly the southern part) were advance and their plans of repression against the the Boer's and apartheid which is a by product of colonialism.
  • The Naval Brigade, 2 guns R.A., Head-Quarters of the 60th Regiment, drafts of the 21st, 58th, 60th, and 94th Regiments, and mounted troops have since arrived.
    • maselaelo1
       
      This is evident from the handwritten source that African's were able to use guns and military equipment as well as an operational army. And, the guns and all the military equipment involved was not used to enforce dictatorship but to defend and fight back the invasion of the Boers against their freedom.
  • Two men of the Natal Mounted Police, on patrol within Natal territory, were captured by a Boer patrol a few days ago.
    • maselaelo1
       
      The significance of this quote reveals the marginal lines between the Natal forces as well as the Boers and gives reason to the advancement of the attack towards the Boers. This gives evidence that African's had skilled armed forces, soldiers and troops and guns during the 1800s and they were not clueless like other unreliable sources claim.

      This quote further reveals that during the 1800s opposing parties mostly used guns as their form of protecting themselves and eliminating their oppositions. Either to inflict violence so as to accomplish dictatorship or the opposite party protecting itself from that and their freedom.
