Great South African Tales

Manie Kruger was one of the best farmers in the Marico. He knew just how much peach brandy to pour out for the tax collector to make sure that he would nod dreamily at everything Manie said. Then one day Manie Kruger read an article in the Kerkbode about a musician who said that he knew more about music than Napoleon did. After that having first read another article to find out who Napoleon was, Manie Kruger was charged, man. He could talk of nothing but his place in history and his musical career.
