  • and
  • General
  • George
  • Pomeroy-Colley,

  • in
  • Natal,
  • is
  • planning
  • to

  • out

  • He
  • is
  • convinced
  • the
  • Transvaal
  • Boers
  • can
  • pose
  • no
  • serious
  • threat,
  • but
  • he
  • needs
  • reliable

  • He
  • calls
  • on
  • former

  • captain
  • Simon
  • Fonthill.A
  • veteran
  • of
  • the
  • recent
  • Zulu
  • and
  • Sekukuni
  • campaigns,
  • Fonthill
  • knows
  • to
  • never
  • underestimate
  • the
  • enemy.
  • He
  • and
  • his
  • servant,
  • '352'
  • Jenkins,
  • agree
  • to
  • carry
  • out
  • a
  • covert
  • diplomatic
  • assignment.
  • But
  • the
  • greatest
  • test
  • is
  • yet
  • to
  • come.
  • As
  • the
  • two
  • armies
  • converge
  • on
  • the
  • heights
  • of
  • Majuba
  • Hill,
  • Fonthill
  • and
  • Jenkins
  • are
  • first
  • into
  • the
  • fray.
  • If
  • they
  • are
  • to
  • break
  • the
  • enemy,
  • Colley's
  • men
  • must
  • hold
  • the
  • summit
  • at
  • all costs...
