'With the history of Richmond commencing at the time of the Voortrekkers and the Byrne Settlers way back in the first half of the last century, and with the passing of the years and the inevitable passing also of one generation after another, there is always the danger that our historic beginnings may be lost to posterity.

Mrs. Alice Hope, who has been the local librarian for many years, and who possesses not only a deeply ingrained love of Richmond, but also a great love of history, has spent much time collecting valuable data in regard to the area, and has now completed the compilation of this valuable and interesting book.'
