One man fell with a broken leg.

The man helping him was shot a moment later and, when a stretcher was brought back, two more of the Borderers were hit.

A section of the 3rd Sikhs was detached to turn the enemy out, and then the ravine was rushed by all the rest.

There was another gorge to be passed, and the enemy were pressing on both sides; but a battery was now brought into action, and soon drove them off.
Thus Dwatoi was reached, where the force encamped.

It was but a small open plain, some five hundred yards across.
