For a
quarter of a century he had been the most conspicuous native figure in
South Africa, and had been the cause of long and bitter political
controversy in Great Britain.

His son DINIZULU afterwards attempted to become king, was exiled (1889)
to St Helena, permitted to return (1898), and granted the position of a
chief. In December 1907 Dinizulu was imprisoned at Maritzburg, being
suspected of complicity in the revolt which had occurred in Zululand the
previous year. He was kept many months waiting trial, there being
considerable friction between the colonial government and the British
government over the incident. He was eventually brought to trial in
November 1908 before a special court, his defence (to the cost of which
the British government contributed L2000) being undertaken by Mr W.P.
Schreiner. The trial was not concluded until March 1909. The charge of
high treason was not proved, but Dinizulu was convicted of harbouring
rebels and was sentenced to four years' imprisonment.

CEUTA (Arabic _Sebta_), a Spanish military and convict station and
seaport on the north coast of Morocco, in 35 deg. 54' N., 5 deg. 18' W.
Pop. about 13,000. It is situated on a promontory connected with the
mainland by a narrow isthmus. This promontory marks the south-eastern
end of the straits of Gibraltar, which between Ceuta and Gibraltar have
a width of 14 m. The promontory terminates in a bold headland, the
Montagne des Singes, with seven distinct peaks. Of these the highest is
the Monte del Hacko, the ancient _Abyla_, one of the "Pillars of
Hercules," which faces Gibraltar and rises 636 ft. above the sea. On the
westernmost point--Almina, 476 ft. high--is a lighthouse with a light
visible for 23 m. Ceuta consists of two quarters, the old town, covering
the low ground of the isthmus, and the modern town, built on the hills
forming the north and west faces of the peninsula. Between the old and
new quarters and on the north side of the isthmus lies the port. The
public buildings in the town, thoroughly Spanish in its character, are
not striking: they include the cathedral (formerly a mosque), the
governor's palace, the town hall, barracks, and the convict prison in
the old convent of San Francisco. Ceuta has been fortified seaward, the
works being furnished with modern artillery intended to command
