- Description: This collection contains two diaries written by Ellen Case, wife of Rev. Philip Henry Case, describing their life in the service of the Anglican church from 1888-1894, as well as a volume containing copies of her letters home. The note books are in a fragile condition; they have been transcribed by her grandson, John James Case, who deposited the collection in Cory Library in December 2003, and the transcription in 2014. There are also six volumes of diaries (1944-1966) and a volume of poetry by her daughter, Nora Noel Case, born 27 December 1886. For a time Nora lived with her older brother Philip George Case, and her diaries describe their life on various farms, and subsequently as store keepers, in the Lower Albany area. She had trained as a school teacher. Her earlier diaries contain interesting details of day to day living and farming, and the hard physical work it entailed. Her later diaries describe social contacts in Barkly East, Bushman’s River Mouth and Queenstown, and as she was meticulous about recording weather, give an excellent overview of rainfall patterns at the time.

- Description: NUMSA as part of COSATU has helped draw up the ANC’s Reconstruction and Development Programme. It is our plan. It is the ANC’s plan. It is a plan to: • create jobs • build houses • provide basic services • improve education and training • get rid of discrimination • get the economy growing • put an end to violence • bring democracy to all in society. Comrades, we need a strong new government to get rid of the problems apartheid has left us. If we don’t vote for a strong party, the same people that control us now - the big bosses like Anglo American, Barlow Rand - will still control us. Workers will still suffer.

Speaking at Union Meetings

- Description: The type of meetings we have in mind are general members’ meetings with more than ten people in attendance. These notes are relevant where you have an opportunity to think beforehand about what you are going to say and to spend some time on preparation. Sometimes you may have to speak 'on the spur of the moment' in response to information, a statement or an event. In these circumstances, you should try to get your thoughts together before you speak, rather than simply 'thinking out loud’. The most important point about the 'spur of the moment' type of situation is to say what’s on your mind. Don’t leave it to someone else. These ‘spontaneous’ contributions to meetings can be very effective. People usually can recognise when someone is speaking ‘from the heart’! Sincerity, honesty and conviction are much more important for effective speaking than ‘polish’ and presentation. Hundreds of books have been written and millions of pounds ’earned’ telling people how to get their message across. While good presentation can help, for the trade union movement what people say is more important than how they say it. A speech is effective if the audience remembers most of the points made by the speaker.
