DIED, on New Year’s Eve, Henry and Edward, the two sons of Mr. William TROLLIP of Dagga Boer’s Neck – Henry aged 27 years, leaving a widow and three infant children, and Edward aged 19 years. They were shot down within a few hundred yards of their father’s residence by a party of Kaffirs and Hottentots, who waylaid them on their return from Blue Krantz, to which place they had been to escort some livestock – of which painful bereavement relatives and friends will be pleased to accept this notice.
