Orakaals on Wednesday came over the Pati and attacked the Militis, who retired and jilaed the delschmust of Infantry. Major General Yeatman Biggs moved out from Kehst on Thursday with a Fie'd Battery, two Companies of the Royal Scots Fusiliers and a regiment of Native Infantry, The enemy withdrew to Ublan Kotal on the approach of the force, Their positions war shelled and the Infantry atormed it, driving the tribesmen back and dis- persing them. Our casualties were practically mil, only naa man having bɛen hit.
While the Blastig were attacking Mahmudzi, the class to the west were gathering and making for the Samans Rauge, which is crowned by our line of forts held by six Companies of the 36th Sikhs, Fort Lockhart is the chief post there,
very strong fort bulli of granite blocke and quite Impregnable. On Thursday it was reported that one of our posty on the Samana was being attacked, and reinforcements were called for from the flying column under-Colonal Richard- son, which was halted at Hangu, ball way between Kohat and Thall. One and a half regiments of Native Infantry (probably the ryth Sikhs and a wing of the 5th Punjab Infantry) with two guns of the Derajat Mountain Battery were sent from Hango. These apparently came Into collision with the tribesmen, as the firing of the mountala guna was afterwards heard.
A party of tribesmen was also reported ta have appeared at Mara!, 25 miles north-west of
Kohat, at the foot of ons of the Passes leading from the Orakkal country. Troops have slo ben sent in that direction.
