		But it was typical of Sir Garfield Todd, the progressive prime minister of Southern Rhodesia in the mid-1950s, who has died aged 94, that he carried the load lightly, though being an internationally respected guru was little consolation for decades of exclusion from active politics.
		Todd's involvement in public life sprang from the empathy he felt with the Africans whose interests he had looked after as superintendent of the Dadaya mission school, in the vast Shabani district.
		Todd, and his wife Grace, were put under house arrest at their ranch, for a renewable period of one year, and further harassments followed.

	Sir Garfield Todd
		Sir Garfield Todd, former prime minister of Southern Rhodesia Born: 13 July, 1908, in Invercargill, New Zealand Died: 13 October, 2002, in hospital in Bulawayo, aged 94.
		Todd was appointed a senator by the prime minister, Robert Mugabe.
		Todd's daughter, Judith, said that declaring her father a hero would be inappropriate and an embarrassment because he abhorred the ruling Zanu (PF) 's "suppression of democracy, erosion of civil liberties, assassination of opposition officials and supporters, arrests and torture, and the climate of fear spread throughout the country".

		Garfield Todd had an unsuccessful political life, ruined by a different Ian Smith, but it was not an unsatisfactory one.
		The Todds grew used to the exasperation of these dealmakers and their hostility, their assumption that the Todds were somehow odd.
		Todd, who had given away most of his land to Africans, and who had few white neighbours, watched from his ranch as Mugabe's "war veterans" began their reign of terror.
