Cecil John Rhodes donates an organ to the Prince Albert church
about 1897 · local · Prince Albert
After the expedition toward Mashonaland with ds Adriaan Hofmeyr and Jan Luttig MP turned back at N'gami, Rhodes offered each man a farm in Rhodesia. Nobody accepted, so he gave the church an organ and a carved chair instead. When a better organ arrived from Britain the "Rhodes organ" was sent out to Zeekoegat, where it still is.
