the Persian border, have arrived at the following mutual agreement regarding
that boundary fine :—

from boundary pillar No. XCII, erected at a point half-way between the new
Chaman railway station and the Mian Baidak hill, in a straight line in the direction
of the Ghwazha outpost. This line has been marked by boundary pillars Nos. XCII,
XCIII, XCIV, XCV, XCVI, XCVII, XCVIII, XCIX, C, Cl, CII, CHI, CIV, cv,

been erected a few yards on the west, i.e., Afghan side of the road commonly
known as the Sina Lar which goes from Ghwazha towards Chaman. The boundary
hne, leaving this road within British territory, runs a few yards at a short distance
to the west of, i.e., on the Afghan side of, that road to boundary pillar No. CXV
which has been erected at a point at a distance of half a mile on the Chaman side
of the Ghwazha outpost. From here the boundary hne runs in a straight line
