| Title | Origins of Empangeni: Rev. Aldin Grout's mission station Inkanyesi on the Mpangeni river May 1984 - 25 July 1842 | |
| Creator | Cubbin, A.E. | |
| Description | From June 1840 till July 1842 Rev. Aldin Grout carried out mission work among the Zulus in Natal. His headquarters were at Inkanyesi (the origin of present day Empangeni). The conditions under which he operated were difficult. The relationship between Grout and the Zulu king, Mpande, deteriorated rapidly as a results of Grout's arrogant attitude and Mpande's mistrust of Grout's motives. Specifically, Grout's action in encouraging Zulus to settle on the mission station under his care provoked Mpande's attack on and destruction of Inkanyesi. | |
