The article "Reminiscences of the Zulu War, 1879" starts on page 547, and end on 562, which is the page this link will take you to.

Has several sketches by Fripp.

Enjoy Salute

Hi all .
Was just reading Fripp's reminiscenses of the azw from Pall magazine and in reference to John Dunn ; '' It is related that the king asked him if he would fight the English in case of war , and his reply in the negative , he was told that had his answer been otherwise he would not have been believed , and most likely '' Eaten Up '' . Later Fripp goes onto say that he stood on a Black Mamba and did an involuntary war dance on the reptile , much to the detriment of it's health . I think Fripp was very lucky the Mamba never latched onto him as that famous painting would never have existed !
cheers 90th. Salute
