South African: archivists study Mandela missives - US News and World Report

JOHANNESBURG (AP) — Most of Nelson Mandela's handwriting is neat, but it
harbors a few mysteries. Archivists sometimes struggle to decipher words in
the vast body of documents that Mandela penned, and he often jotted an
acronym that nobody, not even the former South African president in later
years, has been able to explain.

Now, some of the words that Mandela wrote, which help define the man who
led the fight against white rule and became president after apartheid, are
on display at the Nelson Mandela Foundation, which on Monday unveiled a
public facility.
