Making that Vow On Sunday morning, before the commencement of religion, the Chief Commander sent those (Cilliers, Landman and Joubert - see below) who would practice the religion to come to Malkander, and asked them, to speak to the congregation, that all of them mightily persevere in spirit and in truth, praying to God for His help and assistance in striking the enemy; that he wanted to make a vow to the Almighty, (if all would like to), - "so that the Lord may give us the victory, to establish a House of Remembrance of his Great Name, where it will please Him," - and that they also had to plead, the help and assistance of God, to be able to fulfill this vow surely, and that we will record the day of victory, in a book, to make it known, even to our last descendants, that The glory of God may be celebrated.
