knoll. From here the boundary line runs in a straight line crossing the Loe
Wuchobai nullah to boundary pillar No. XVIII, which has been erected on the
watershed between the Tanda and Loe Wuchobai nullahs. From No. XVIII,
the boundary line runs in a straight line to boundary pillar No. XIX, which has
been erected on a prominent peak on the main watershed between the nullahs
flowing into the Loe Wuchobai nullah on one side and the nullahs flowing into the
Tanda nullah on the other. The boundary line then runs eastwards and then
southwards along the crest of this watershed through boundary pillars Nos. XIX (1)
and XIX (2) erected on prominent peaks to boundary pillar No. XIX (3), which
is also on a prominent peak of the same watershed. From boundary pillar
No. XIX (3) the boundary line turns eastwards and runs, as shewn in the map
attached, in a straight line through boundary pillar No. XX to boundary pillar
No. XXI, which has been erected about a quarter of a mile to the east of the main
branch of the Tirkha nullah on the edge of the Pinakai plain. From here the
boundary line crosses the western extremity of the Pinakai plain, and runs south-
eastwards in a straight line to boundary pillar No. XXII, which has been erected
on a prominent peak of the mountain lying between the Alajirgha and Grhazluna
nullahs. From thence it runs in a straight line to pillar No. XXIII, erected on a
knoll in the plain between the above two nullahs. From here it runs southwards
in a straight line to boundary pillar No. XXIV, which has been erected between
and at the junction of the Alajirgha and Ghazluna nullahs. From here the bound
ary line follows the centre of the Psein Lora. Pillars Nos. XXIV (1), XXIV (2),
and XXI\ (3) have been erected to more clearly mark the course of this river.
From boundary pillar XXIV (3), the course of the Psein Lora is naturally clearly
defined and further boundary pillars have been considered unnecessary. The bound
ary line follows the Psein Lora, which, from the junction of the Tokarak river,
is known as the Kadanai river, and runs along the centre of the river bed of the
Psein Lora and Kadanai for nearly thirty-nine miles to boundary pillar No. XXV,
which has been erected on the south bank of the river on a prominent knoll about
one mile above the junction of the Loe Ghbargai nullah with the Kadanai river.
Here the boundary line turns westwards and leaves the Kadanai river.
We have also jointly agreed on the following matters relating to the portion of
the boundary line defined in this clause :
Firstly, that the rights attaching to the Psein land which is within Afghanistan
and close to and to the west of boundary pillars Nos. XVI, XVII, and XVIII of
water from the Kakars, who own the right to the water of the Loe Wuchobai
nullah above that, will remain as hitherto.
Secondly, that the Kakar Tribe should continue to enjoy the rights of grazing,
as hitherto, throughout the country lying between the Kand river, and Loe Wu
chobai nullah, and Babakr Chahan and Sam Narai.
rkmUy, that the Pseins should continue to enjoy the right of grazing, as hither
to, in the tract of land commonly known as Psein Dagh, which is situated on the
south of the Psein Lora.
