Dundee and Glencoe were retaken by General Sir Redvers Buller troops as the South African War II 1899-1902 (Anglo-Boer War II 1899-1902) intensified. The area west of Glencoe was under the command of General Schalk Burger, who would later be replaced by General Joachim Fourie. The two areas were and are still separated from each other by less than 10km in KwaZulu Natal. The war ended on 31 May, 1902 following the signing of the Peace Treaty of Vereeniging by all the parties involved in the war.
