Abstract
There was an Indian summer for the Liberal Party and the Transkei ‘common front’ after the first Africans-only election in November 1963. The Party’s activists were at the heart of the negotiations to form a government that would reflect the democratic victory. Lewis Majija and Silberbauer Zokwe in the Legislative Assembly, Revd Enoch Bono, S. K. Mgudlwa and Max Thomas out of it were in close touch with their Party colleagues and in particular with Peter Brown, who continued to travel to and from Umtata with great frequency, alone or accompanied by John Aitchison and others.
