I was born at the Paarl on the fifth day of September 1849 and baptised in the Dutch Reformed Church at that place on the thirtieth day of that month.3 I cannot, of course, assert these facts from my own knowledge but for their correctness have to depend upon a baptismal certificate. I had several godparents, only one of whom I ever knew; but as none of them thereafter ever apparently concerned themselves about me I need not further advert to them.

The cradle of the extended De Villiers family in South Africa was an estate near La Rochelle, France. The revocation of the Edict of Nantes in October 1685 meant that freedom of religion came under siege in France.1 Among the many French Huguenots who felt compelled to flee from their beloved France in order to secure their right to worship their God as they chose, were three De Villiers brothers. They first went to Holland (the then Dutch Republic), before they came to the Cape in 1689. The De Villiers family in South Africa descended from these three brothers.

The Digest stressed the importance of the deterrent effect of strictly penal labour. Although strictly penal labour, that is, a regime of regular, strenuous, punitive labour, was not directly remunerative, it was believed that, in the long run, costs would be saved through a reduction in the prison population.
