Dit werk is, eerst, een kleine aanvulling van de verzameling die in 1919 onder den titel Enige Correspondentie uit 1899 is gedrukt en verspreid; doch daarenboven, en in hoofdzaak, een vervolg daarvan, lopende van het uitbreken van den Boerenoorlog op 11 October 1899 tot aan de komst van de deputatie Fischer-Wessels-Wolmarans in April 1900.

Dr. W.J. Leyds  served as the State Attorney (1884–1889) and later the State Secretary (1889–1898) of the South African Republic (Transvaal) under President Paul Kruger, essentially acting as Kruger's right-hand man. During the Second Boer War, he served as the Republic's special envoy in Europe to gather international support. He played a major role in developing Transvaal's early railway network and mining laws. The historical gold rush town of Leydsdorp in Limpopo is named after him.
