Cartwright calls FitzPatrick "the first South African" because "...in an age in which there were no South Africans, but only Transvalers, Free Staters, Natalians and Cape Colonials and Africanders, he started calling himself a South African and announced the fact wherever he went. The marked difference between Sir Percy and most of his colleagues in the mining industry 80 years ago was that when he said he was going 'home' he meant that he was returning to South Africa."
