About this book
John A. Hassell, a former captain of American scouts in the Boer army, was asked by friends of the Boers in New York to find out by personal observation how Boer prisoners of war were held on the Bermuda islands. His pamphlet, printed in New York, answers British press reports of well-run camps with an account of shameful conditions. It asks Americans to send new clothing, digestible food such as condensed milk, and small tools for the roughly four thousand prisoners. It cites the Hague Conference rule that gifts for prisoners enter without duty, and a confirming article by the Rev. F. S. Ballentine in the Outlook.
