This article focuses on the events in the Bethulie concentration camp during the Anglo-Boer War (South African War), 1899-1902, with specific reference to statistics on child deaths in 1901. We pay attention to the establishment and relocation of the camp, origin of diseases and causes of deaths, and the impact on children and families. The Bethulie camp is compared with other camps4 to determine whether the British government was confronted with a unique situation in this camp. The statistics are contextualised, focusing especially on the camp's poor management. Graphs and information tables provide a picture of the harsh reality of child deaths in 1901 in this camp.

Die artikel fokus op die gebeure in die Bethulie-konsentrasiekamp tydens die Anglo-Boereoorlog (Suid-Afrikaanse Oorlog), 1899-1902, met spesifieke verwysing na statistiek oor kindersterftes in 1901. Aandag word geskenk aan die ontstaan en skuif van die kamp, oorsake van siektes en sterftes, asook die impak op kinders en gesinne. 'n Vergelyking word getref met ander omliggende kampe om te bepaal of die Britse regering gekonfronteer was met 'n unieke situasie in die Bethulie-kamp. Die statistiek word in konteks geplaas van die gebeure, veral die swak bestuur van die kamp. Aan die hand van grafieke en inligtingstabelle word 'n beeld verkry van die harde werklikheid van kindersterftes in 1901 in hierdie kamp. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
