Mpande's Bones Empty

Subject: Mpande's Bones Tue Sep 20, 2022 8:57 pm

I read on p88 of Catshewayo's Dutchman a note by BishopColenso that during the AZW the grave of Mpande had been desecrated and his bones removed in a box. The Bishop was not aware of what was done with them. There was no reference given by the Bishop, is there any other corroboration? In the hope that the bones were returned, does anybody know what happened to them?
