iiicting dispatches received from Sualim

The belief here is that there was no fight
ing to speak of, and that the casualties were
very slight. The official dispatches state
simply that fourteen were wounded Other
dispatches, however, say one man was
killed and six TO twelve wounded The
British found the water at Tamai bad and
insufficient, and after setting fire to the vii
