Sent from George Albert Turner
29 Dec 1910
Description:
‘Dear Dr Usher,
I trust you have had a Merry Xmas etc.
I came across the following passage in an article. The Basutos of Basutoland by H.E. Mabille, publisher is the Trans. of the Brit. & S.A. Assoc for Advancement of Science Vol. iii 1905.
“Besides these principal clans there were many others, the ba Fakeng (among whom are recruited several of the leading councillors, and are remarkable for the number of albinos) the ba Khatla also used to be cannibal, etc.”
This seems to point to certain clans having more albinos among them than others.
Yours sincerely,
G.A. Turner.’
