Hi Opinion from an Attorney friend - CS 9 Act 16/14 would probably be Contravention of or in terms of Section 9 of Act 16 of 1914. Most likely attesting to a false Affidavit. Rising of the Court means - to the end of proceedings. In effect no sentence at all.

Hi Obituary for Joseph START (1835-1903) Joseph START, was born in Leicestershire on the 17th July 1835. The godly influence of the Methodist home in which he was brought up led him to seek the Lord at an early age. As he grew in years he took an active part in Church work. His success as a Local Preacher caused him to realise God's call to the work of the ministry. On his acceptance as a Candidate he entered Richmond College, where the missionary atmosphere that prevailed induced him to offer himself for the Foreign Field, and he was appointed to the Port Elizabeth Circuit in the year 1862. He was subsequently appointed to Healdtown, Cradock, Annshaw, Peddie and Seymour Circuits. When he was in the prime and full vigour of life he took up an appointment at Bensonvale, where he did much good work for the extension of God's Kingdom amongst the Native people. He founded the Bensonvale Institution, which is now one of our most successful Normal Training Institutions. At Tsomo and Mount Arthur he rendered effective service notwithstanding advancing years. The long and toilsome journeys in the latter Circuit brought on the trouble which resulted in his death. He removed to Kamastone, where he enjoyed a useful but quieterlife, and lastly to Mount Coke. For over forty years he laboured without a single break. He was a good man, unblameable in character, of a very retiring disposition, sympathetic and courteous in manner, devoted and faithful in the performance of his duty. He lived for God and His work, and found great enjoyment in preaching Christ and Him crucified. He loved the Methodist Church and laboured abundantly for its welfare and success. His sermons were evangelical, fervent and convincing and he was eminently blessed in his ministrations amongst the Native people of South Africa. He bore with much Christian fortitude the pain which often became excruciating, and passed into rest on the 21st June, 1903.

Hi Obituary for Alfred Ernest BARNET (1876-1902) Alfred Ernest BARNET, was born at Shawbury, Shropshire. on July 2nd 1876. He became a member of the Wesleyan Methodist Church at the age of thirteen years and began to preach four years later. He was under training as a day school teacher when the call to the Christian Ministry was heard by him. He was employed ijn connection with the Liverpool Mission and also in North Wales before he came to South Africa as a candidate. He became assistant in Queenstown where he laboured with acceptance until his removal to Indwe. The Conference of 1902 had designated him for training in one of the Colleges in England and arrangements were being made for his voyage when he was prostrated by the fever which proved fatal. He was highly esteemed as a pastor and preacher, and he gave promise of much usefulness and influence. For his brief but helpful ministry many have reason to thank God. The end came suddenly, but for him it was the beginning of a fuller life in a wider sphere. He died at Indwe, June 26, 1902 From: Minutes of Wesleyan Methodist Conference 1902 Page 8-9 Transcribed by Darryl Allwright darryl.allwright@yahoo.com

As I said, I'm fairly confident that "CS 9 Act 16/14" should be read as an abbreviation of the name of the Act, followed by its date: the ninth Act of the name CS9 (whatever that means) passed as Act No. 16 of 1914. If, on the other hand, there was no other Act of the same name (i.e. this one was the first -- only subsequent Acts would be numbered), then I don't know what the 9 means. S by itself could mean Section but would ordinarily be written as s.9 (lower case), and in that case the C remains a mystery. The subject of the Act as described by David does seem to be aligned to my suggestion, but what was the exact title of the Act?
