The Dorseta' is a sad history. Those of the two supporting companies who attached them- selves to the Sikhs were safe, so far as the com- mon anfety went ; but a half company, under two attached efficers, Lteateranis Haloy and Crook, evidently tried to push their way home, Instead of occdying the house they had taken, or attaching themselves to the Slikke. They were evidently massacred, as was Macknife's party of the Northamptons, as their dead bodies were found in a nullah in
the morning.
A party of the 36th Sikhs, under Liegtenant Prait, became detache, and though only havildar and eight min, they ontrenched themselves in a deserted house, and had a perfectly peaceful night, Another party of Dorsets came in ; this was Private Vicary, of Dargal fame, and two associates. They have not a very clear arrative, but they say they heard a parly moving in a rullah, and challenged voice answered "froad," and then they It, were rushed. A Pathan wrenched Vicary's rifle from him, but he took it back, and plonged it Into his assalfant ; « swordsman then cut at him, but cut short, only cutting his boot, and this mas te rolled over with rifs butt.
