The town is also known for
an orphanage which was built
in 1918, when the flu epidem-
ic resulted in large numbers of
orphans. The writer, Rev. Solly
Ozrovech, also lived here and used
to be a director of the orphan-
age. The cornerstone of the new
Dutch Reformed church was laid
in 1953.
Producers from Aliwal North
to Barkly-East and Dordrecht are
mainly livestock farmers (sheep
and cattle) and in many instances
on a smaller scale than commercial
producers. Producers in the Elliot
and Ugie area are mostly commer-
cial crop farmers, with diversified
livestock components. The game
industry has also started to take
root in the area over the past two
years.
Should you be in the area,
make an experience of it and visit
the Tiffindell Ski-resort. This is
a picturesque area with beautiful
views from all angles. Colourful
little houses and bus stops lining
the road are unique, with one
bus stop on the way to our In
the Spotlight producer, Karel
Bezuidenhout, even sporting a
John Deere.

our personnel complement to
this extent in such a short period
of time, is excellent. There was a
definite gap in this area, which
Senwes filled.” People here have
time for one another and they
have such appreciation for every-
thing that is done for them. It is
wonderful to do business with
such people. Eastern Cape peo-

This is definitely not our last
visit to the Eastern Cape - a new
