History
From Setlagole, the Barolong and Bahurutshe launched their own hit-and-run attacks into the Rustenburg and Schoonspruit as well as southern Marico districts.
Thereafter, Setlagole became a staging post for raids on Boer farms in the western Transvaal. A surviving Boer document records the loss of 287 cattle from eight Schoonspruit farms during one such foray.”
