Storming of Dargai Heights by the 1st Gordon Highlanders by Richard Caton Woodville (PC)
On August 23rd, 1897, the warlike tribe of the Afridis attacked
Ali Musjid and Fort Maude. In October a British force was despatched
to punish them by invading Tirah, their summer home, and on the 20th
of the month occurred the fight on the Dargai Heights, where the enemy
had taken up a strong position. The Gurkhas were first sent up, but
were met with a withering fire. Then the Derbys and the Dorsets tried
to rush the entrenchments but at last the (1st) Gordon Highlanders
were told off for the perilous task.
