The existence of Moshoeshoe's Basuto kingdom on the settlers' eastern flank meant constant friction. |
I do not want that, the Colony does not, and the Queen does not, and no Basuto either. |
The Basuto rides like a horse, with a long stride, and is noted for its inherent trippling gait. |
Soon the horses, most of which were small and of the Basuto breed, were ready to start. |
Some of the quaint proverbs, doings, and sayings of the Basuto deserve mention. |
My advice is that you select as good a pair of Basuto ponies as you can obtain. |
