Robert Stephenson Smyth Baden-Powell, 1st Baron Baden-Powell OM, GCMG, GCVO, KCB (22 February 1857 – 8 January 1941), also known as B-P, was a Lieutenant-General in the British Army, writer, and founder of the Scouting Movement. After having been educated at Charterhouse School, Baden-Powell joined the British Army in 1876, and was posted in India and Africa, and served three years in the British Secret Intelligence Service. In 1899, during the Second Boer War in South Africa, Baden-Powell successfully defended the city in the Siege of Mafeking. In 1910 he retired from the Army.
Baden-Powell was a prolific painter and writer. Several of his military books, written for military reconnaissance and scout training in his African years, were also used by boys. Based on those earlier books, he wrote Scouting for Boys, published in 1908 by Pearson, for youth readership. During writing, he tested his ideas through a camping trip on Brownsea Island in 1907, which is now seen as the beginning of Scouting. After his marriage with Olave St Clair Soames, he, his sister Agnes Baden-Powell and notably his wife actively gave guidance to the Scouting Movement and the Girl Guides Movement. Baden-Powell is buried in Nyeri, Kenya.
NYERI
Nyeri is a town in Kenya about 180km north of the capital Nairobi. It lies at the eastern base of the Aberdare (Nyandarua) Range that forms part of the eastern end of the Great Rift Valley and on the western side of Mount Kenya. Nyeri town is the administrative headquarters of Central Province and Nyeri District. The population was 98,908 in the 1999 census. The local scenery includes Mount Kenya. The main industry is farming. Coffee and tea are the main cash crops and maize is the staple food. There are many tourist destinations nearby.
History
In the early colonial days, Nyeri was a garrison, but it soon burgeoned into a trading centre for white farmers who produced cattle, wheat and coffee. They also came into town to drink and socialize. The White Rhino Hotel, Outspan Hotel, and the Aberdare Country Club at nearby Mweiga are living reminders of the old days. A number of renowned people have hailed from Nyeri, most notably Wangari Maathai Nobel Peace Prize winner in 2004, Mwai Kibaki Kenya's third president, Dedan Kimathi, a general in the Mau Mau war against the British colonizers, and Catherine Ndereba Olympic marathon Silver Medalist, four time Boston Marathon winner and multiple time winner of Chicago and other marathons.
The Wajee Nature Park lies just south of the town. It is now the burial place of Lord Robert Baden-Powell a hero of the Boer War and the founder of the Scouting movement. He once wrote "the nearer to Nyeri the nearer to bliss". Baden-Powell's Paxtu cottage, now a small museum, stands on the grounds of the Outspan Hotel. He and his wife are buried in the town cemetery. About 5 km along the road from the site of Baden-Powell's grave is the Mathari Mission settlement, which was constructed by Italian missionaries at the beginning of the 20th Century. The mission is home to a number of dwellings, stalls and the Consolata hospital and School of Nursing. The hospital provides free care to the people of the surrounding area free of charge, and has a private wing for more wealthy patients. It is staffed largely by nuns of the Consolata order. During the end of 1902, Richard Meinertzhagen marched a strong military column and although he met an equally spirited resistance from the Kikuyu warriors led by Wangombe Wa Ihura, who inhabited the area between Mount Kenya and the Aberdare ranges. The Kikuyu were defeated since their spears and arrows were no match for the European rifles. After Meinertzhagen's victory, a decision was reached to site a British post close to a little hill at the slope of Mt Kenya. On December 18th 1902, Nyeri was born. The post took its name from the little hill. The Kikuyu called the hill Kia-Nyiri while their Maasai neighbors called the hill Na-aier.
Shortly after the establishment of the post, European settlers and missionaries and Indian merchants began to migrate into Nyeri.
Porwolls’ Scouting Pilgrimage to Kenya
June 1999
During our family’s "vacation of a lifetime," a three-week visit to Kenya, we included in our itinerary three Scouting-related diversions in the town of Nyeri that made the trip even more special:
Visit to Baden-Powell’s gravesite
Tour of "Paxtu," B-P’s last home, at the Outspan Hotel
Shopping at the Kenya Scouts Association regional Scout Shop
Nyeri
One of the largest towns in Kenya (the map says its population is between 100,000 and 500,000), Nyeri (pronounced "Near-ee") is the administrative headquarters of the Central Province and one of the liveliest highland towns. A former military camp, it emerged as a market town for European coffee growers in the hills and for settlers on the ranching and wheat farms further north. Located beneath the Aberdare Range, a dense mountain forest home to lion, leopard, bongo, buffalo, rhino, and elephant, Nyeri was on the front line during the war for independence in the 1950s. We found the road leading from Mount Kenya to Nyeri the roughest one of our entire trip, and that’s saying a lot! We recorded the bumping and jostling in the Land Rover for posterity on the VCR; otherwise, no one would believe us.
Of more special interest, Nyeri was also the last home of Robert Lord Baden-Powell, founder of the worldwide Scouting movement, whose Paxtu cottage, now a small museum, stands on the grounds of the Outspan Hotel. The Outspan, with its beautiful gardens, is the stately base of operations for those visiting Treetops, a famous lodge set on stilts in the forest nearby, whose salt-lick and lake attract wild animals for viewing at all times of the day and night. B-P’s grave and memorial are found on the north side of town. (Special thanks to our trusty travel guide, Kenya: The Rough Guide.)
Baden-Powell’s Gravesite
B-P’s final resting place is located on the north side of town, in a small cemetery right off the main road into Nyeri. The entrance is marked by two 6’ tall, white, square, concrete pillars that support a black wrought iron gate. Tall trees border the cemetery, a burial ground for British colonials and others of years gone by.
Upon entering, a left turn takes you to the burial site of approximately 20 British soldiers who died fighting in the Mau Mau rebellion of the ‘50s. A right turn soon takes you to the gravesite of Baden-Powell and his wife Olave. A single white marble headstone marks the spot. At the top left, the Boy Scout fleur-de-lis emblem is etched into the stone, and at the top right, the international Girl Guides (Scouts) emblem. Engraved in black are the memorials:
ROBERT BADEN-POWELLCHIEF SCOUT OF THE WORLD22ND FEBRUARY 18578TH JANUARY 1941
OLAVE BADEN-POWELLWORLD CHIEF GUIDE22ND FEBRUARY 188925TH JUNE 1977
A bulls-eye is located at the bottom center of the marker. It represents an old Scout trail sign for "I have gone home."
The headstone faces Mount Kenya, at 5200m (15,600’) the highest peak in the country and second highest in Africa after Mount Kilimanjaro in nearby Tanzania. B-P recounted lovely views of his favorite Mount Kenya from Paxtu, and his gravesite with this view is more than fitting. Unfortunately, on the day of our visit the mountain was lost behind a dry afternoon haze. Like so many other public sites of interest to tourists, the cemetery was accompanied by a local who met us at the site and provided a factual narrative of B-P’s life at Paxtu and his burial site. The man said he was a teacher and a Scout leader, and we tipped him for his knowledge and trustworthiness. He is shown posing in the picture with Matt and Mike.
Paxtu
As the carved cedar plaque affixed to the outside back wall of the cottage indicates, Paxtu was the "cottage [that] was built for Lord Baden-Powell of Gilwell O.M., G.C.M.G., G.C.V.O., K.C.B., founder of the Boy Scout movement who lived here from October 1938 until his death on 8th January 1941." The KSA pamphlet "Paxtu: Baden-Powell’s Home at Nyeri, Kenya" provides an excellent history of the site. Although not dated, it appears to have been printed in the 1960s.
"B-P first visited East Africa - each of the present countries of Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania - in 1906, and he recorded his impressions both in words and pictures in his book Sketches in Mafeking and East Africa, published in 1907.
"He did not come here again until late in 1935 when he carried out inspections of Scouts at rallies organized throughout the country. He then visited his old friend, Major E. Sherbrooke Walker, M.C., who had been B-P’s first private secretary after the founding of the Boy Scout Movement and who still has in his possession the first Scouter’s Warrant ever issued. After numerous adventures Eric Walker had built the Outspan Hotel in Nyeri and the still more famous Treetops. [The original Treetops burned to the ground in 1955; a larger building has replaced it.] B-P once again fell in love with ‘the wonderful views over the plains to the bold snow peak of Mount Kenya,’ described after his visit in 1906, and so when ordered by his doctor to rest in the winter of 1937 it was to Nyeri that he came.
"’When he left us,’ wrote Eric Walker in his book Treetops Hotel describing B-P’s departure from Kenya in 1938, ‘Lord Baden-Powell was getting on in years.’ (He was, in fact, 81.) ‘The nearer to Nyeri, the nearer to bliss,’ he said, ‘I am coming to spend the rest of my life at the Outspan.’
"’And he asked us to build him a cottage before he came back for what he said was to be the third and last time. He picked a site in the garden. ‘What,’ he said, ‘will it cost to build a little house with a sitting room, a large veranda, two bedrooms, two bathrooms and two fireplaces?’
"’I made a rapid calculation. ‘Twelve hundred square feet at ten shillings per square foot,’ I replied, ‘comes to six hundred pounds.’ (Would that we could build for that cost now!)
"’He accordingly took up shares in our little company to that value, for which we built the house, furnished it, and made him a private garden, gay with flowers, and with a fountain, and bird-bath in front of the veranda. He had a discussion as to what he would call the cottage and thought of a number of names. Finally he said: ‘I named my home at Bentley ‘Pax’ because we bought it on Armistice Day after the First War. [Armistice Day was the day the war ended: November 11, 1918. Pax is the Latin word for "peace."] I think I will call my cottage here ‘Pax,’ too.’
"’After that it was always known as ‘Paxtoo,’ or ‘Paxtu.’ "B-P and Lady B-P had celebrated the twenty-fifth anniversary of their wedding in 1937 and Scouts and Guides all over the world had subscribed for a present for them.
"’We have utilized part of the Silver Wedding gift from Scouts and Guides,’ wrote B-P in The Scouter for May, 1938, ‘in building for ourselves a cottage at Nyeri. We have named it ‘Paxtu,’ since it will be a second ‘Pax’ to us, and a permanent reminder of the generous goodwill of the Movement.’
"In October, 1938, he came back to Nyeri to live in Paxtu, and never left East Africa again.
"A description of the house was given by B-P in a letter to the actor, Cyril Maude, in 1939:-
"’We sit here in incessant sunshine (with showers to water our garden) and never since we came, four months ago, have we failed to have brilliant sunshine for a breakfast on the veranda. I enclose a photo of the shack we had built for us and we find it in every way excellent. Sitting-room in the center with the whole front open, with folding glass doors. On each side of it a bedroom with dressing-room, bath, cloak-room, etc., and servants’ pantry at the back, with a covered way to the hotel 200 yards away, whence come all our meals. We have hot and cold water laid on, with electric light and heating, a delightful garden (much grown up since the photo) and a glorious view across the forest and plain up to Mount Kenya with its snowy top.’ "The cottage remains very much as it was when he first had it built, though the old makuti roof has been replaced by an iron one, and the garden which in recent years had got out-of-hand was rather drastically tidied up in 1964, but the fountain and bird-bath remain. The cottage is now joined to the main block of the hotel with a series of apartments."
Additional insights on B-P at Paxtu can be found on page 412 of Baden-Powell: Two Lives of a Hero by William ("Green Bar Bill") Hillcourt: For the first time in their many married years, B-P and Olave were completely alone together, without the interference and interruption of thousands of people. ‘We are utterly and supremely happy here,’ Olave wrote to her children, ‘and almost every other minute we keep saying to each other how heavenly it is and how lucky we are to be here.’
"For the first time in B-P’s life he was not under pressure of deadlines he must meet, appointments he must keep, conferences her must attend, rallies he must review, of things that needed to be done. When he finally accepted the fact that his enforced retirement was permanent [due to declining health], he pushed all anxiety aside and choked off all qualms of his conscience telling him he must do this and that. He could not be idle, though. When he no longer felt ill, he had a block and paper at his side at all times, so he could scribble things. He established a bird bath and a bird feeder in front of his verandah and spent hours watching the bright-coloured birds that descended on them. He adopted a couple of hyrax as pets and greatly enjoyed their antics.
"When he was well enough again to walk in the garden, to take short motor trips, to spend an occasional night at Tree Tops, he started to write up his experiences with African ‘birds and beasts’ and to make sketches and water-colours of the animals he saw on his excursions. Most of his articles he sent home to England where they were published in The Daily Mail or in The Scout. They were afterwards collected and edited by Eileen Wade and published in book form with reproductions of some of the water-colours: Birds and Beasts in Africa, Paddle Your Own Canoe, and More Sketches of Kenya."
For 100 Kenyan shillings ($1.43) per person, we had the hotel open up Paxtu for a visit. The only rooms open to visitors are the main sitting-room and a tiny alcove immediately to the right of the entry door. The main room is quite small (perhaps 12’ x 12’) and is a shrine to B-P, with Scouting memorabilia of all kinds - especially neckerchiefs and framed photos - hanging from the fireplace mantel and walls. B-P’s old black telephone was resting on a high table stand near the fireplace, and even had a dial tone! One wall included some of B-P’s original pencil illustrations, a real thrill. The alcove was only as large as a good-sized walk-in closet in a new Atlanta house, but its walls also were decorated with interesting memorabilia left as gifts by grateful Scouts and Scouters. Five steps lead from the cottage to the garden, now fashioned in plants and flowers in the Boy Scout and Girl Guide emblems. In the nearly 60 years since B-P’s death, tall trees have grown up at the property line, cutting the view of Mount Kenya (although the haze may have prevented us from seeing it that day.)
In the main sitting-room, I placed on the mantel a red BSA neckerchief with gold embroidered piping on top of a group of 10 other scarves that had been arranged there from Scouts and Scouters from all over the world. The hotel attendant arranged two other neckerchiefs I brought with me (a green one and a black one - with the red one forming the Kenya national colors) on one of the walls. In a scrapbook lying on a center table, I inserted a business card with the notation, "From the Scouts and Scouters of BSA Troop 764, Dunwoody, Georgia," an Atlanta Area Council shoulder patch, and a large oval patch bearing B-P’s likeness and the words, "Boy Scouts of America - Atlanta."
In the guest book, we signed in, and when I turned the page back one page, I was astonished to read an entry made two days prior: "Joe Pugh, Atlanta, Georgia," with the comments: "A Pilgrimage Fulfilled." Joe was one of my instructors for Wood Badge course 92-36!
Of the limited items for sale, we bought the "Paxtu" brochure, two different postcards of B-P’s illustrations, and a Girl Guides patch (white square with red country-map and Girl Guide emblem inside, a giraffe, and the words "Karibuni (Welcome All) Kenya"). It was hard to believe that we were actually here. Prolonging our stay, not to mention feeding a big hunger now that it was 3:00, we ate lunch of pizza and Coke at an outdoor table at the Outspan Hotel.

KUTAPAKKAN KAKIKU DI KAKI LANGIT

Kutapakan kakiku diantara cadas, kerikil, pasir-pasir kehidupan dan kebebasan

nuansa keagungan Tuhan memberikan petuah bijak pada langkah derap kakiku untuk melangkah

Alam memberikan pembelajaran kepada kita tentang bagaimana untuk apa dan mengapa......
awan membelai diantara celah keringat dan pengharapan
masa depan yang agung, masa depan yang kokoh seperti puncak yanh menengadahkan atas kuasa Illahi

Begitulah manusia sombong, rakus, dan perusak......
kita masih ingat saat kecambah menanti mentari untuk membesarkan dirinya...
kita pun tahu saat kecebong berusaha berlairan diantara buih saat ular mencarinya untuk dimangsa begitu pula kita saat kita tertawa diantara derita berkepanjangan...
seruak manusia diantara belukar jalanan.....mereka tergusur dan lapar...
tunggu saat kesalahan-kesalahan semua itu membatu dan menggunung...
mungkin sudah waktunya saat itu Sang Raja Kehidupan akan memuntahkan lahar-lahar kehidupan
menggoyangkan isi perut bumi demi menjawab keserakahan dan kesombongan...
