DE WAAL, P. (18**-19**) Church minister and playwright. Brother of playwright J.H.H. de Waal, he wrote a farce, similar to his brother's 'n Les oor di Tier, for the CJV of Cape Town's Nieuwe Kerk (His play was later combined with that of his brother, to create a longer play called Die Selfsugtige Skoolmeester, possibly translated and performed as The Selfish Schoolteacher by the [[Christelike Jongeliedenvereniging}CJV]] of Warmwater near Oudtshoorn in 1914). He later also wrote Bekeerde Jodin ("Converted Jewess"), a very popular play, often produced. (Binge, 1969)
