[PAR] [TLE] Second Boer War [SEP] The Second Boer War (Dutch: "Tweede Boerenoorlog" , Afrikaans: "Tweede Vryheidsoorlog" , "Second Freedom War"), known variously as the Boer War, Anglo-Boer War, South African War or Anglo-Boer South African War, started on 11 October 1899 and ended on 31 May 1902.  Britain defeated two Boer states in South Africa: the South African Republic (Republic of Transvaal) and the Orange Free State.  Britain was aided by its Cape Colony, the Colony of Natal and some native African allies.  The British war effort was further supported by volunteers from the British Empire, including Southern Africa, the Australian colonies, Canada, India and New Zealand.  Inside Britain and its Empire there also was significant opposition to the Second Boer War. [PAR] [TLE] Mafeking Cadet Corps [SEP] The Mafeking Cadet Corps was a group of boy cadets formed by Lord Edward Cecil shortly before the 217 day Siege of Mafeking in South Africa during the Second Boer War in 1899-1900.  Cecil, the son of the British Prime Minister, was the staff officer and second-in-command of the garrison.  The cadets consisted of volunteer white boys below fighting age and were used to support the troops, carry messages, and help in the hospital.  This freed up men for military duties, and kept the boys occupied.
