R.A.A.F.

On arrival at Potchefstroom Captain Raaf found that, without an armed force, it was quite impossible to effect any arrest.

He was one of Raaf's Volunteers, and as such had taken the oath of allegiance to the Queen.

Raaf's Horse and Weatherly's Borderers were, however, expected daily to reinforce him.

Poor Clarke and Raaf were kept for two months in a dark room, and were only allowed out twice for exercise.
