FRIDAY M¢\\' 10 100
THE WAR OPERATIONS
as lord Roberts’ victorious army
advances northward. his advanced guard
have reached Sand River, which is but
51 miles from Kmonseidr. It is si the
latter important railway centre that a
railway line from the south-east joins the
main lineffrom Bloemfontein to Pretoria.
This south-eastern line extends through
Bethlehem, Harrlsmith, Van ‘Reenaii‘s
Passon[to Ladysmith and Durban- in
Natal. General French, concerning whose
operations little has been heard for some
time past, is believed to be endeavoring
to seize this railway at some point near or
soutlreast of Bethlehem and so cut the
Boer line of communication between
Kroonstadt- and Van Reenan's Pass, the
importance;of which could hardly be
overrated.
Once in possession of a part of this rall~
»way an effort would be made
to secure the entire line down
to the pass, and thus take the
enemy inthe rear at that point. It is
probable that before long this will be ef-
fected and will enable General Buller to
advance through Van Reenan’s pass into
the Free State to co-operate with Lord
_Roberts there and in his march toward
jPretoria. It is now tolerably clear that
dBuller's long inaction has been awaiting
the development of Lord Roberts’ ad-
vance, and his getting possession
of the Ladysmith-Kroonstadt Rail-
way referred to, so that when the
forward movement from Natal takes
place it may be made under the most
advantageous conditions and with as
lsmall an expenditure of lighting force and
` blood as is possible.
As to the forces operating on the west-
ern border and moving northward to the
relief of Mafeking an important advantage
has been gained by the successful pas-
sage of the large Vaal River. Lord
Roberts' advance through the Free State
has no doubt also lessened the stress of
the enemy`s resistance on the border. In
fact the time is now very near when the
outlying Boerforccs must be called in to
‘makes united stand against the British
centre which is closely threatening
Johannesburg and Pretoria. 'It will be
by no means surprising if the relief of
Mafeking comes very soon in this Way
and before General Hunter's column has
I reached the beleaguered town. I

My Dear Mrs. Gardiner-Prince
