Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Bear in mind too, the khor in question widened out, and sloped gradually towards the plain, which in turn shelved at a flat grade down to the sea. On my way back to Suakim with the news of the battle, I rode down this khor to the plain. Our search for Tamaai was, in a small degree, a repetition of our search for Tokar, after the battle at El Teb. It may be recollected that in that instance, the expeditionary force, after camping for the night at the captured wells, set out next morning (March 1st) for Tokar. Nobody seemed to have any clear idea of where the town was. As it was a place set in a hollow, not on a hill, and surrounded by pretty thick mimosa bush, much marching and time were consumed in finding it. The distance from El Teb to Tokar was only eight miles. The cavalry scouts scoured the country in front and on both flanks, till at last as a happy thought they were allowed to look in another direction to that at first indicated, and they thereupon soon succeeded in finding Tokar, Major Giles of the Egyptian service who was attached, being the first, I believe, to make out the place through the mirage. This was done only after we had wandered five or six miles out of our way. It is perhaps as well to state plainly and once for all, that there were many Europeans available as guides--men who had lived at Suakim--passed through Tokar, and several who had gone back and forward between the sea-coast, Berber, and Khartoum. There were also Egyptians and Arabs who knew the country perfectly, but none of these people were either systematically sought out or called upon to assist as guides.
