Notes: | 11/6/1901: OM, Orphan Chamber, Bloemfontein: Received from CSRC a gold ring belonging to the estate of the late Mrs B Fivaz, born van Heyningen
Henry Becker: Mrs Fivaz arrived this camp suffering great pain.Her history was that she went to the farm Tempe to gain strength after typhoid. She was there but a week & at the end of that period, she was given according to her own statement, repeated frequently a 'large' dose of castor oil. She appears to have objected to it but after persuasion on the part of her hostess Mrs Williams, she took this oil. She soon suffered pain from the effects of this oil, was sent back per cart in great pain & arrived here in great pain. She was found suffering from peritonitis of a severe form, & in spite of all medical aid, died in less than 24 hours after her arrival here.
