scope and content: The attached files contain the transcript of the third day (12.07.1934) of the"Grahamstown Tria". This case deals with a crude forgery by Harry Victor Inch (leader in the Eastern Province of the South African Grey Shirts Movement), of the Protocols of the Wise Men of Zion and a Jewish world conspiracy. The newspaper"Die Rappor" published a document (in an Afrikaans version on 6 April and in the original English version on 13 April) allegedly stolen by Mr. Inch from the Western Road Synagogue in Port Elizabeth. This fake document includes both a rather vague and a very detailed Jewish"Plan of Attac", which appears to be a record of an address delivered by the rabbi to the members of the local Jewish community. On the third day of trial the following witnesses were were asked about the alleged nexus of the political landscape and the Jewish religion and the misleading phrase"Kosher Lepesac" mentioned in the document by both judge T.L. Graham and judge C. Gutsche and cross-examined by the defendants: Woolf Hirsch (rabbi of the Jewish Community of Pretaoria), Ephraim Moses Levy (rabbi of the Durban Hebrew Congregation), Eileen Pearton (employee of the Algoa Sweet Company whose boss is Mr. Bernstein - a member of the Jewish faith), George Frank Dingemans (professor of Dutch at the Rhodes University College who is acquianted with the Hebrew characters) and Cecil Neethling McDermot (who was present at an event where Mr. von Moltke recited the forged document which has allegedly been stolen from the Western Road Synagogue).
