The son of a former judge-president of the Orange Free State, Fischer studied at the best schools, went on to Oxford as a Rhodes scholar, displayed a keen mind and a deep social conscience.
Last week, Fischer stood in the dock of the Pretoria Palace of Justice, charged with 15 counts of Communist activity and conspiring to commit sabotage, fraud and forgery under South Africa's Suppression of Communism Act.
Fischer was no sooner sentenced than thousands of poster-waving university Students (WHERE HAVE ALL THE FREEDOMS GONE?) took to the streets in Durban, Johannesburg, Cape Town and Grahamstown, protesting still another example of South African justice.

His grandfather, Abraham Fischer, was the first Prime Minister of Orange River Colony and his father, Percy, was the Judge-President of the Free State.
However, Bram Fischer was not merely an 'Afrikaner Revolutionary' (of the subtitle) but an Afrikaner Communist Revolutionary, a member of the Communist Party of South Africa (CPSA) and, after it was banned in 1950, of the clandestinely restructured South African Communist Party (SACP), occupying leading positions in both the structures.

On December 2 of that year, he married Christina Fischer, and moved with her to Bethabara, where they took over management of the tavern and store, replacing Christian Loesch who had moved to Bethania.
The congregational council thought it advisable that Abraham should marry again, and considered several possibilities, finally settling on Catharina Sehner (1758-1829), after considering the question of "whether a woman who had taught school for many years could adjust herself to the care of a tavern".
A child, Mary Thomas, born about 1845, is living with Charles Abraham Steiner and his family in the 1850 census, and is named as niece in Charles Abraham's will in 1855.
