An interesting collection of cartoons on the Anglo-Boer War (1899 - 1902) is on permanent display in the conservatory in Melrose House. These cartoons are reproductions from various British, South African and European newspapers and magazines from the turn of the 19th century.
Kruger the Ogre terrifying the life out of the British Cabinet.
Cartoon by F. Carruthers Gould
"When the children are in bed
O the Ogre shows his head
Creeps along the rampled sheet
Tickling with his gostly feet
How can children take their rest
With an Ogre on their chest"
