The Residency, Maseru, Basutoland, 1881. Four months of desultory and indecisive warfare on the frontier of rugged Basutoland have already cost the [British] Cape Colony a million of money...The...[View] of Maseru which we now publish [is] of the Residency, with the three conical hills that overlook it, from the crests of which the Basutos kept up a hot fire...[The sketch was] drawn for the Illustrated London News by Lieutenant W. Nelson, an officer of the Native Levies under Commandant W. J. Nettelton, forming part of Colonel Bayly's forces at Maseru. Mr. W. Nelson was killed in the action of Oct. 28; and we have received from Commandant Nettelton a letter, dated Maseru, Nov. 10, inclosing the two Sketches, which were found among Mr. Nelson's papers, with a note showing that Mr. Nelson meant to send them to us'.
