A special correspondent of the Natal Mercury had already reported that
Churchill had arrived in Lourenco Marques and confessed that “I am not able to
say how he managed to elude his guards and get out of Pretoria, but the story
of his journey afterwards is sufficiently exciting to win general admiration.”
The S.S Induna arrived in Durban on
23rd December where the harbour was decorated with flags and bunting.
Churchill was carried shoulder high by a group of men who placed him on a box
and demanded a speech. He had a few words to say but the crowd sat him in a
rickshaw and conveyed to the City Hall.Monday, April 1, 2013
