Drum gives you the first full story of one of Africa's most controvesial figures, the white woman who claims to have gone native'. She was born on a farm called Rooiport near the little town of Vrede in the Orange Free State. Her father was a Englishman. She grew up playing with her father's servants rather than with her brothers and sisters. She learned to speak Zulu and Sesotho, and these she spoke more fluently than English. She met Seargent Khumalo in Durban and fell in love with him, she gave birth to her daughter Thandi. She went to stay with him in Dube, Soweto. They were arrested under the immorality act and went to court. They were fined and the people who came to listen to their case collected money and psid their bail.
