KRUGER, Stephanus Paulus Johannes ("Paul") : A 2pp 4to Letter in a Secretarial Hand, Signed By Kruger and Dated Pretoria 19 Mei 1899

Kruger writes to Cato, a member of the provincial Legislature (Volksraad), expressing his condolences on the death of Cato's wife. Stephanus Johannes Paulus Kruger (10 October 1825 – 14 July 1904), better known as Paul Kruger, and affectionately known as Uncle Paul (Afrikaans: "Oom Paul"), was State President of the South African Republic (Transvaal). He gained international renown as the face of Boer resistance against the British during the South African or Second Boer War (1899–1902).. Letters of a personal nature from Kruger are uncommon. He could not write, and had with great difficulty learned to sign his name. As such his autograph is most frequently encountered on official documents, land deeds and official correspondence.
