Caffers conveying cattle from the Colony. The marauders 
were instantly attacked, and one hundred head of cattle, 
which had been taken from the Kat River, recaptured : 
twenty of the enemy were killed in this affair.

returned to the Indwe, just before the war began, fled from 
him. 2ndly. The destruction of Eno’s kraal by the com-
