Meanwhile the Briush cavalry swept around the hills as the retrealing enemy descended into the plain with the Britiah bayonets behind them and the river ino frootoftbem. They were charged by the cavalry .and seemed to have perished almost fo & man.

The British then retu'n-d to Ladysmith, without coming into touch with the Co leneo garrison which had retired to Estcourt.
