English (Events)

1699: In 1699 Governor Willem van der Stel visited the valley at the foot of the Winterhoek mountains, and named it "Land van Waveren" in honour of the Waveren, a prominent Amsterdam family to whom his mother was related. At that stage the area was part of the district of Stellenbosch, but on 11 July 1804 it was proclaimed a separate district with its drostdy at Tulbagh. ^[8]

2 February 1699: "This day at 2 a clock after noone we anchored in Table Bay at Cape Bona Esperance (for which mercy God be praised) haveing all my men in perfect health, depth of Water 6 fathams. The Fort bore from us SSW, Green Point NWBW, and the boddy of Penquin Isle NBWt, wee rid a large mile off shoar. soe soone as my anchor was gone I salluted the Forte with 11 Gunns then 5, 3, and one they gave me Gunn for Gun ... Sent my Purser a shoar this after noone to the Governer [Willem Adriaan van der Stel] to acquaint him whence I came and to desire leave for Water & refreshment he answered that Water there was Enough. but as for Refreshment hee could spare me none but what the ffreemen could they should have liberty soe to doe &c." - John Merry, transcribed from log kept in the "Fleet", frigate, sailing for Batavia (20 October 1698). [Mansell Upham] ^[9]

21 July 1699: Nepotistic 'oversight' corrected most likely at intervention of visiting jurist from Batavia ...: ^[10]

Rain continuing ... Meeting of Council to elect new member for Court of Justice, as it was found that 2 brothers-in-law had session at that board. Secretary Hugo De Goyer appointed ... ^[10]

Den Edle. Heer Gouverneur ter vergaderinge voorgedragen hebbende, hoe dat door het aantrouwen sommiger leeden in 't collegie der Raaden van Justitie alhier te nae waren vermaagschap geworden, sulcx deselve te samen niet wel vermochten in 't geseijde collegie cessie te nemen, en dat het oversulcx gans nodig was, dat daarinne eenige veranderinge wierde gemaackt, Soo is dan ook eenpaarlijk verstaan en goed gevonden, in plaatsse van een der affgaande leeden, den Politicque Secretaris deses Gouvernements, Hugo de Goijer, wederom te surrogeren en nae gedaene Eed cessie ter vergadering mede te late nemen ... ^[10]

Hugo de Goyer (from Culemborg), bookkeeper married 2 December 1696 the Cape-born Christina de Beer (baptised 25 July 1677) daughter of Jan Dircksz: [de Beer] van Wageningen but "geboortigh van t’ Rheensche Veen" [near Utrecht] & Anna van Velthuysen / Velthuysch (from Woerden [Utrecht]). ^[10]

Christina`s 4 other sisters also all married to VOC officials serving at the Cape ... mention of 2 brothers-in-law in this instance appears to refer to Johannes Swellengrebel who had just previously married (28 June 1699) Johanna Cruse becoming brother-in-law to Willem Corssenaar - already married to his new wife`s sister Catharina Cruse ... ^[10]

... this nepotistic 'oversight' on the part of Willem Adriaan van der Stel was probably only rectified at the intervention of the visiting de Heer en Mr. Philip Muijkens, Raad Independent van Justitie tot Batavia who attended in person at the Cape (21 May 1699) the previous meeting of the Council of Policy ... ^[10]

Curiously Lt. Adriaan van Reede (from Rhenen [Utrecht]) & Johannes Blesius (from Breuckelen [Utrecht]) - who also sat on the same Council of Justice were also related by marriage ... the former being married to Christina Does (from Nijmegen [Gelderland]), widow. Diemer & the latter being married Christina Diemer - mother & daughter respectively ... but this `in-law-relationship`, however, does not seem to have been considered similarly problematic ... [Mansell Upham] ^[10]

29 January 1700: Hon. Commissioner [ Wouter Valkenier] presents his credentials (21 November 1699) to the Council [of Policy] here, as follows ^[11]:

"Willem van Outhoorn, Governor-General, &c., with greeting to reader. Whereas the directors in their preceding letters & specially in 1656 have been pleased to order that he, to whom the command of the return fleet to Holland shall be entrusted, shall be likewise qualified & empowered as Commissioner to inspect the Company's affairs at the Cape, in order to give an exact report of the condition there to their Honours in the Fatherland (although for some years, in consequence of the conversion of the Administration into a Government according to further orders & arrangements of the Seventeen, this has not been precisely carried out, except, that last year Advocate Daniel Heins, Extraordinary Councillor of India & Admiral of the return fleet was empowered by us for this object), we have in council (9 October 1699), decided, as Mr. Wouter Valkenier, Councillor of India & late president of the Court of Justice here, has requested leave to return home, to appoint him Admiral of the Fleet, & also Commissioner to inspect the affairs of the Cape Government, with authority & power, should he find it necessary & expedient, to make such further or better regulations for the future, as, subject to the approval of the directors or this Government, he may deem proper, & likewise in accordance with the particular instructions of the masters for the Commissioners & Inspectors of the different offices in India, as framed of old." ^[11]

"We therefore order the Governor W. A. van der Stel, or whoever may be in his place, at the time of the Commissioner's arrival, & all others, without exception, living under the Cape Government, to acknowledge Commissioner Valckenier as such, to respect & obey him, & render him all assistance in the execution of his charge to the utmost of their power, & according to the oath by which everyone is bound to the Company, as we have considered this proper in the service of the same, & in fulfilment of the orders of our principals. Dated at Batavia on the island Great Java (21 November 1699). (Signed) W. van Outhoorn.“ [Journal] (Note: Valkenier, during his stop-over & inspection, approves the grant of the estate "Vergelegen" to Governor W.A. van der Stel ... [Mansell Upham]) ^[11]

2 November 1705: Sam! Sam! "This afternoon appeared before the Governor [Willem Adriaan avn der Stel] the 'Hottentot' [Khoi] Captain Koopman with an embassy from the so-called 'Bushmen' or 'Robbers', these being some of the 'Hottentots' who had stolen the cattle of the far distant burghers. As they had made 'Sam Sam' (Zaam Zaam) peace with the Company, or had calmed down they wished to enter into a covenant similar to that of the other 'Hottentots'. This was granted on condition of their promise that they would undertake no expeditions against the cattle of the Company or the burghers. They were presented with some beads, tobacco, &c., & then departed. [Journal][Mansell Upham] ^[10]

28 November 1705: Governor [Willem Adriaan van der Stel] receives 2 letters from the Landdrost [Starrenburgh] who had returned. ^[12]

No. 1, dated 19th November [1705]. Had arrived this day at Berg River visited kraals of 3 captains who had accompanied him (Klein Namaquas). He found them poor & badly off - 10 captains lived in only 2 kraals, & were poor in cattle. ^[12]

“We obtained from them 48 head of mixed cattle & 9 from Captain Bootsman. This is all that we could do during the 5 weeks of our absence. From Piquetberg we proceeded along the Berg River, but found no kraal. They always move out of our way & do not like to barter, as we saw in the case of Bootsman who on our arrival had the half of his cattle driven away. To-morrow I shall send to the Land of Waveren to discover what Kraals may be there, & where the others are, in order to make our expedition as successful as possible. We had the misfortune that a cruel brute of a Lion carried our sentry away from near the tent. One ox died - another misfortune. By the carelessness of the superintendent of Schuur we obtained an old wagon which brought great trouble upon us. One of its wheels is broken into atoms so it must be dragged on empty. When we move, the one wagon is to take on half of our luggage & then come back for the rest. This makes our journey very miserable. We hope to find another wheel somewhere, otherwise we must leave the baggage behind. I am much displeased to tell you all this, but trust to have better success among other kraals in order to realise the purpose of my mission," &c. (Signed) J. Starrenburgh. ^[12]

No 2. 26th November [1705]. "Since my last I visited the Kraals in the Land of Waveren & the Breede River & have now reached the farm of Pieter Jurriaensz: van der Heyden, in order to visit some 'Hottentots' [Khoikhoi] behind the Groene Kloof. Our number of cattle at present is 104, all young. As soon as the 'Hottentots' hear of our coming, they send their best cattle away, & will not part with them. But I must grin & bear it. Please let me know what farm I must bring the cattle to on my return. I intend to call 1st at Clapmuts & leave the men there until I have seen you & made my report". ^[12]

28 Feb 1706: Magistrate Starrenburg arrested Adam Tas. :: Between 1690 and 1724, 54 Huguenots signed documents. These signatures were published by Graham Botha in his book The French Refugees at the Cape and includes those of Louis de Berault, Pierre Simond, Jacques Delporte, Jean Durand, Jacques de Savoye, Jacques Nourtier, André Gauch, François Retif, Guillaume Néel, Paul Roux, Daniel Hùgo, David Senecal, Jean Prieur du Plessis, Guillaume du Toit, François du Toit, Jean le Roux (or Jean le Roux de Normandie?), Jacques Therond, Hercules des Prez, Abraham de Villiers, Jean Gardiol, Jacques de Villiers, Pierre de Villiers, Isaac Taillefert (or Isaac Taillefer-164), Jean Taillefert, Jean Gardé, Claude Marais, Estienne Bruére, Daniel des Ruelles, Pierre Rousseau, Jacques Pinard, Estienne Cronje, Jacques Malan, Gabriel le Roux, David du Buisson, Daniel Nourtier, Estienne Niel, Philippe Fouché, Gideon le Grand, Pierre Cronjé, Paul Couvret, Paul le Febvre, Salomon de Gournay, Pierre Vivier, Pierre Jourdan, Estienne Viret, Esaias Engelbert Caucheteux and Jean de Buijs. ^[13] These signatures were almost certainly also some of those of the 240 burghers who signed the petition headed by Adam Tas ^[14] against corruption and cronyism by the Government of Willem Adriaan van der stel. ^[15]

Mrt 6, 1707 "Hendrik Biebouw / Bibault ... son of surgeon Detlev Biebow (from Mecklenburg) & immigrant orphan girl Willemintje Ariens: de Wit (from Rotterdam) - shipped out with 7 other orphan girls on the ship China (1688) ... step-son of Stellenbosch deacon Jacob Pleunis (from Orsoy [Rheinburg]) ... his biological father & step-father both sire illegitimate children {Susanna} by Malagasy slave women Susanna [ed. This is actually Diana van Madagascar - see: http://e-family.co.za/ffy/exhibits/timeline-diana.pdf [Delia Robertson] ^[16][17]] & Lijsje van Madagascar respectively] … who goes on a rampage (1707) with his 3 unmarried cohorts - coinciding with free-burgher Adam Tas et al agitation against Willem Adriaan van der Stel's governership & cronyism - assaulting the miller at Stellenbosch, Sebastian Schroeder (from Schledehausen near Osnabrück) thereby gaining latter-day notoriety & commemoration for uttering contumaciously to interceding Landdrost Johannes Starrenberg: "ik wil niet loopen, ’k ben een Africaander al slaat die landrost myn dood, of al setten hij mijn in den tronk. Ik sal, nog wil niet swygen" ... which quote (since 1928 & subsequently) - arguably - is generally taken out of context, politically reconstructed & claimed to represent the beginnings of latter-day "Afrikaner" identity ...

… his friends in crime are:

• Hans Beijer - son of former brothelkeeper Catharijn Wagenmakers: van de Caep & grandson of reprieved-from-the-gallows & banished convict Groote Catrijn van Paliacatta;

• Jan Cloete - grandson of murdered cattle rustler Jacob Cloete (from Cologne) & youngest son of intrepid hunter & Drakenstein ensign Gerrit Cloete (from Cologne) who farmed at "Idas valley", Stellenbosch & "Allesverloren", Riebeeck Kasteel whose older brother Jacob Cloete (1675-1713) mercilessly (fatally?) beats up (1696) 'stamvader' Jan Smit (from Maastrict [Limburg]) – aided & abetted by another Cape-born youngster Jan Harmensz: Potgieter (1674-1733) “saying that a Cape-born man should not give way to a fellow from the fatherland” (seggende 't is niet te dulden dat een Caaps kindt voor een vaaderlandts keerel souden moeten swigten ...); and

• Matthijs Greeff - son of Stellenbosch heemraad Matthias Greeff (from Magdeburg) & Cape-born Susanna Claassens & step-grandson of Robben Island-banished bully, wife-beater & slave killer Jacob Artzen / Aertzen / Ertzen / Hertsz / Aartsz: Brouwer (from Tiel [Gelderland])." ^[18]

30 Feb 1710: Report of Commissioners for Hospital. ^[19]

They had proceeded to the Hospital the day before yesterday & inspected all the sleeping places & clothing of the sick, 225 in number. They found them fairly provided with all necessaries, better than was expected, excepting 10 or 12 who were almost destitute of blankets or beds to lay on excepting mat or piece of sail some had no pillows. They had also inspected .the building, & found the house of the chief surgeon, as far as the flat went, totally rotten & supported by various poles in order not to fall in. It therefore most urgently required repairs. ^[19]

All the sick, excepting the syphilis patients, were mixed up together, especially those suffering from dysentery & other bowel complaints causing by their stench great inconvenience to others. The privy stands nearly on the public road, about 3 roods distant from the Hospital. This enables the sick to visit a neighbouring tavern & retards their recovery. ^[19]

They would suggest to build a wall with a door in it in one of the wings, especially the one tending towards the Company's gardens, in which an apartment could be set aside for the use of patients suffering from dysentery & diarrhea; & in order to prevent the patients from running to the canteen, the plain of the hospital inside the Canal, which is continually filled with sand by the water daily running down & therefore easily passable, should be enclosed with a wall 7 or 8 feet high, leaving no opening except the gate opposite the church. This will leave abundant space for those who require fresh air outside; & as a commencement has been made already, it may further be planted with oaks or other trees for shade. The privy may be likewise placed in the neighbourhood. ^[19]

Blankets & clothing might be provided as follows ^[19]:

100 blue shirts of bafta, salampoeris or guinea

100 doublets of Surat Niquauias lined with Bengal sail cloth or something else as good, in stock.

100 pairs of trousers of the same material which might be given to those requiring them, on account.

The Superintendent should receive and account for

50 blankets home made & Bengalese.

50 covers of double Bengalese sail cloth tilled with straw which could often be washed & cleaned. ^[19]

In time, coarse Dutch linen might be used of five-fourths ell's breadth. What there is on hand at present is only 1 ell broad. The person using it, though the expense is trifling, might have it put on his account, ie, 2 skillings for using it, & 1d for a mattress or blanket. ^[19]

It may likewise be arranged that all the mattresses & blankets of the sick, brought by them into the Hospital, shall in case of their death, remain there, instead of being appropriated by others. They might then be given, after having been thoroughly washed & cleaned, to those who have left the Fatherland heavily in debt, & without payment, etc. (Signed by J. C. d'Ableing, J. Blesius, Gr. Brouwer, 7th Feb. 1710) ^[19]

Decided to repair the surgeon's dwelling; to draw up the partition wall as recommended; to build the wall round the hospital, plant the trees, remove the privy to a more private spot, & forbid the sick from walking through the streets, &c., &c The rest of the report adopted as it stood. ^[19]

It was also considered that there was only one cook for the Hospital, who had only 2 slaves to assist him. That as the work was consequently very heavy, because of the large numbers of sick often reaching 400 or 500, all Europeans; the Council decided to give the cook a mate, & to dismiss the female superintendent of the Hospital, who had been appointed by the late Governor, W.A. v. d. Stel, as her office was entirely incompatible with that of a woman & she was therefore uselessly drawing pay and emoluments. ^[19]

And in order to solace the Superintendent for this, his monthly pay of f 16 is increased to f 10 from date, he entering upon a new contract for 3 years after his term of office has expired. Moreover, considering the great importance of paying proper attention to the sick a matter of such grave moment to the Company it is decided to give him an assistant at f 14 per month. In order to prevent tho sick from running to & fro, & prevent all inconvenience caused by fires made of bushes, it was decided to hang a lantern with a lighted match continually in a suitable spot in the hospital, that they might light their pipes there. [Journal, 30 February 1710] [Mansell Upham] ^[19]

15. ↑ Willem Adriaan van der stel succeeded his father, Simon van der Stel, as Governor of the Cape in 1699; Willem van der Stel abused his official position to corner an over-supplied market in farm produce. Van der Stel was jealous of Adam Tas's wealth and easy going life, and in 1706 he used his legal powers to arrest and imprison him. Tas became a Stellenbosch legend when he had this petition drawn up against incumbent Governor W.A. van der Stel and other farming officials. Tas and his fellow free burghers were protesting against the corruption and extravagant lifestyle of Van der Stel and the fact that abuse of power by officials led to unfair competition with burghers. The Tas petition was submitted to the Lords Seventeen, the governing body of the Dutch East India Company (VOC), in Amsterdam. The petition was rejected and on Sunday, 28 February 1706 Magistrate Starrenburg arrested Adam Tas. From documents in the desk of Tas, Van der Stel established the nature of complaints against him and also the names of the dissatisfied burghers. Though several more burghers were arrested and punished, they were victorious at the end, when the Lords Seventeen in October 1706 categorically prohibited officials to own land or to trade. His wife Elizabeth van Brakel tried hard to get him released; when Adam Tas was finally freed after thirteen months, he named his farm 'Libertas' (liberty). Van der Stel was recalled to the Netherlands in 1707.
