SON.

KUMASSI—A

The following telegram from Colonel Willcocks to Mr. Chamberlain _ is the official narrative of the relief of Ku- mmasie, which followed the escape of 'Sir Francis Hodgson and party, as related above :-—

Bekwai, July 20.—Just returned from Kumassi, which was relieved July 15, after two days’ running fight, ending insuccessful attack and dis- lodging enemy from out four stock- ades within one mile from Kumassi. Enemy’s position perfectly selected and prepared on high land, and completely hidden by almost impenetrable bush. I had spread report that I would at- tack Kokofu to the east of Bekwai on July 13, and several thousand of the enemy came from direction of Kum- masi for defence of Kokofu; but on that same day I suddenly marched to Pekki, fifteen miles tothe west of Bekwai; march lasted nineteen hours, going through worst paths. and jungle troops ever marched in; incessant rain prevailed.

July 14 I reached Ekwanta; Captain Eden, West African Frontier Force, and Lieut. Edwards, Sierra Leone Po- lice Force, carried village Treda with bayonet; village held by 600 of the

—Four natives Enemy’s force extremely surprised at bayonet charge; enemy fled, leaving be- hind a great many goats, sheep, etc. Rear-guard attacked at midday, but the Maxim guns soon silenced enemy’s force; one native soldier West African Frontier Force.

July 15 I left Ekwanta at dawn through roads in indescribably bad condition; guns moved with greatest difficulty, but, at the same time, all kept up. Rear-guard attack three o'clock in the afternoon repulsed by Major Beddoes, West African Frontier Force. At 430 o'clock in the after- noon Major Melliss, West African Frontier Force, and Lieut. Edwards, Sierra Leone Police Force, leaders of scouts, heavily fired on, both of them slightly wounded; Major Wilkinson, Inspector-General of Gold Coast Con- stabulary, officer commanding advanc- ed guard, brought up all the field

guns under Phillips, West African Frontier Force, and also three Maxim guns, asit was evident that we were now in the face of enemy’s entrenched position.

I gave orders for infantry to extend to both flanks; entangled bush had to be cut before any men could possibly penetrate. After twenty minutes, in- tantry had extended sufficiently, facing north, and two companies facing east towards rising g-ound, on which sid: enemy kept up neavy fire, although the four Maxim gunswere busily employed against them.

About twenty casualties had now taken place, and having tull confidence in officers and men, I determined, not- withstanding the enemy being posted behind, to advance with the bayonet;

aithe fight.

The bayonet charge absolutely par- ‘alysed enemy, who at once ceased fir- ing and fled away in thousands, leaving behind a great many mangled dead in the stockades and the bush, showing terrefic havoc caused by 75- millimetre guns, news of which will, I hope, spread over all this country.

I have destroyed war camp of the commander-in-chief of the Ashanti army, situated near main road, and I entered Kumassi at six in the even- ing. Terrible scenes of desolation and of horror ; stench sickening; nothing but burnt down houses and putrid bodies to be seen, the latter right up to the walls of the fort. Garrison de- iighted beyond words. Native soldiers most of them too weak to stand. Bri- tish officers thanked God for relief, as a few days more would have seen the ‘last of the defence.

I left Kumassi July 17, leaving be-

To reach the Liver, as wel] as the kid- neys, to set the filtering organs in

working order and to cure every kind of backeche, there fs but one unfailing remedy, and that is Dr. Chase's Kid- néey-Liver Pills. It is the onviy treat- ment that has this direct and combined ‘etion on both liver and kidneys, and

ihe only one that positively and per- manentiy cures backache, whether caused by liver or kidrevs.

massi had burned heaps of rotting corpses, which must have been lying near forts for weeks past. I had also cut short bush and the grass, which was growiug quite Close to the walls of the fort. The werk was sickening in the extreme, but, at the same time, al ranks helped bravely.

In my opinion the garrison left be- hind at Kumassi was altogether un- equal to the task of holding fort, and nothing less than fear of the Ashantis to attack could have saved them, not- withstanding strong fort. I have never seen anything so gruesome as the vici-

| nity of fort. I expected, with my 1,700 j unarmed native followers and the sick

and wounded, some difficulty in com- ing; but enemy’s being completely dis- persed of July 15 seems to have frightened them; as they did not fire a shot for twenty-five miles’ march which teok three days, owing to two days’ consecutive rain.

I cannot end without bringing to notice the soldierly qualities of officers and men under trials I have personally never previously known in my long

experience of jungle warfare, their cheerfulness under every form of dis- comfort, their valour against the un- seen and unknown numbers, on_ half rations, native soldiers, without any blankets, yet always cheery. They are deserving of high praise. WILLCOCKS.
