A request with a difference.

I am looking for a copy of the actual Treaty of Vereeniging, signed at
Melrose House, Pretoria at the end of the 2nd Anglo-Boer War.

It seems four copies were made, one or two would have gone to Britain with
the remaining copies staying in South Africa.

I have tried the National Military Museum in Johannesburg and the Boer War
Museum in Bloemfontein - both without success.

If anyone is near the State archives in Pretoria or Capetown, could they
enquire on my behalf.

Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
