The open space across where the charge had beenmade was strewn thick with-the dead, the Colonel of the Comwalls among them where he had fallen at the ‘head of his mgnwiih a rifle and fixed bayonet in his hand. Our casualties were over eighty. of which twenty- eight were killed. `Some of our other 1 regiments also lost, pretty heavily. We could not tell what the Boer loss was as tligy buried a lbt of their dead and threw the rest into the river out ot. which we were tisingf them for a. week.

The enemy retired about three

miles further up the iiver to where they had their laagcr in a very strongly- entrenched position. As this was a very bad position to attack, and Lord Roberts was averse to any_ncedless loss , of life, we advanced against it by means ' of trenches( Each re"giinent by turn took 48 hours duty,_going _in in the _ evening and digging a trench. and oc- cupying it the next day Bri-ng on the 1 laager. _ _
