Summary: "The Peace Negotiations between the Governments of the South African Republic and the Orange Free State" by Rev. J. D. Kestell and D. E. Van Velden is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work provides an official record of the peace negotiations that culminated in the Treaty of Vereeniging, which marked the end of the Boer War in 1902.

The preliminary exchanges indicate the complexities and stakes involved in reconciling national pride and the desperate need for peace, setting the stage for further discussions and developments in the chapters that follow.
