		De Wet, who had in the meantime been reelected as commander in chief of the Free State forces, by an overwhelming vote, put up a gallant defence of Bethlehem but the odds against him were too great and he was forced to take Steyn and the government with him on commando.
		De Wet was inspired by Steyn’s thought that the Afrikaner would emerge from the struggle with greater strength, and his despondency soon gave way to the desire to share in the economic, political and moral reconstruction of his people.
