Autograph Letter Signed 'W. P. Schreiner' from William Philip Schreiner Prime Minister of the Cape Colony during the Second Boer War to 'My dear J. S. C.' J. S. Cox suggesting a meeting while in London for the enquiry into the Jameson Raid.
On letterhead of Morley's Hotel Trafalgar Square London WC. 24 March 1897. 1p. 12mo. In good condition with slight spotting to extremities laid down on leaf removed from autograph album. 'I am sorry that we have missed each other on the occasions you have called. My time is much occupied & it is difficult to fix an hour before 6 P.M. on Sunday when if you can manage to call once more I shall be delighted to see you & revive our mutual recollections of old days.' According to Schreiner's entry in the Oxford DNB 'During the closure of the Vaal River drifts in 1895 he helped to commit the Cape to possible war by drafting the ultimatum to the Transvaal republic; but he was appalled by the Jameson raid later that year and soon afterwards broke finally with Rhodes. Although he opposed ending the British South Africa Company's charter he chaired the Cape select committee which condemned Rhodes's conduct. In 1897 he gave evidence at the raid inquiry in London.' On letterhead of Morley's Hotel, Trafalgar Square, London, WC. 24 March 1897. unknown

Short tear in cloth along rear joint at head of spine paper cracked over front hinge occasional penciled lines in the margine; else sound and clean. No dust jacket. Willis was a mining engineer who worked for the U.S. Geological Survey. "In 1929 after attending an IGC conference in South Africa Willis traveled the length of Africa accompanied by his wife and supported by the Carnegie Institution of Washington to study the geologic structure of the deep rift valleys that bisect the East African plateau. His study convinced him that the valleys had not developed because of separation as most geologists thought but were the result of "ramping" caused by compression and vertical movement" ANB.
