Saiyid Khan and Islam Khan, rode into Bint, and after a stay
of a few hours the return march was commenced, which was without incident.
The object of the march was to drive the Afghans back from the sea-board,
but they had retreated on Fanooch when they heard a Force was coming.
One of the indirect consequences was that, in May, the representative of
Islam Khan in Karwan looted wheat from Jamedar Yakoob and Line-guard
Jungoo, and severely beat the latter and his wife. This they said had been
done under Islam Khan's instructions who, they said, wished all telegrapn
employes hounded out of his country. His anger was apparently due to the
fact that the above-mentioned men iad disclosed his real relations with the
Afghans, to our knowledge of which he attributed the ride to Bint by Colonel
Delamain's Force. He has since apologised for this, and declares the occur
rence had not his sanction. He was most courteous when I visited him m
Bint in October and when he came down to Rapch in December. Details
of both these meetings were forwarded to you under my Nos. 30 of 12th
