In Afrikaans throughout of this particularly individualistic history of Smithfield and the Caledon District. Prinsloo was a teacher and noted the copyright thus: "Alle regte van elke bladsy streng voorbehou" [The rights to every page is strongly held].

As sommige mense aanstoot sou neem, dan is dit daarna toe, dog onthou net dit dat u die gebeure van 133 jaar in een boek vind ...

If some people take exception, then so be it, as remember you are have…
