I have just got off the phone with a dealer, who has the following. I think this is very special stuff, so contact me if you are serious about buying and want to be put in touch with them. I have nothing to do with this, I just can't afford it and I am trying to stick to medals only.
The documents relate to the 15 may 1902 when the Boer leaders met to decide if they would surrender, and are:
peoples congress book of signatures, 90 odd signatures of all there.
signatures of the 30 who voted to surrender.
2 passes one signed by kitchener for ZAR, and one for OFS signed by Lt Col Hamilton, for people to travel to meet the British.
The draft papers initially presented for peace, which were then typed and signed on 31 May.
