Abstract
It is with great sadness that we heard of the passing away of Hendrik Jacobus Erasmus on 15 June 2016, an esteemed member of the Editorial Board of Fundamina and a frequent contributor of legal historical contributions to this legal journal. Hennie Erasmus was a man of many talents. He had a formidable reputation as academic, as author, as judge, and as historian. He was born on 10 January 1935 in Ladysmith, Natal. After matriculation at the Kroonstad High School in 1952, he obtained the degrees BA and MA (both cum laude) from the University of the Free State, followed by an LLB from the University of South Africa and a DLitt et Phil (cum laude) from Leiden.
