Good morning. After spending millions of pounds over the last seven years, a South African investor has opened a new museum at the home of Emily Hobhouse, to celebrate the life of the famous Cornishwoman who saved many women and children during the Boer War.
Emily grew up in St Ive, near Liskeard, where her father was a vicar and the first Archdeacon of Bodmin.
Although she was not well-regarded by some people in Great Britain, because she was a campaigner against the Boer War, she did a lot to improve the condition of women and children held in British concentration camps in South Africa, and she is still much loved in that country.
Emily died in London in 1926 and her ashes are buried in a statue in South Africa.

A rare bee has been spotted in a newly planted park in Newlyn.
Insect migration scientist, Dr Will Hawkes, saw the Perkins鈥 Mining Bee visiting seaholly flowers which had been planted in Gwavas Park to attract pollinators.
The park was planted in spring by pupils from Newlyn and Alverton primary schools with the help of gardeners from Newlyn Community Flora Group.
The Perkins鈥 Mining Bee is an endangered species which is still in decline. But, according to Kernow Ecology, Cornwall is a stronghold for the species, and the largest population in the UK is to be found around Land鈥檚 End.
Dr Hawkes said, 鈥淭he site has only just been made suitable for all of our wonderful pollinators. It is testament to the quality of the site that such a rare species has arrived so quickly鈥.

Cornwall Council has announced that the remains of a sailor, believed to have been shipwrecked in the 18th century, will be buried in Padstow next year.
The skeleton was found two years ago on a cliff near Trevone following a powerful storm.
Radiocarbon tests showed that these bones were from a man between 25 and 40 years of age, and that he died nearly 300 years ago.
Padstow Council have agreed to bury the sailor in the town cemetery next spring, and they hope to appoint an artist to design a fitting headstone.
Money to pay the cost of the headstone will be raised through local events and donations. If more money is raised than is needed, the additional funds will be donated to the RNLI.
And that鈥檚 all from me for this week. Until next time!
