You write, “that you had detached a Risâla of horse and a Kushoon “of Jyshe through the woods, with orders to chastise the enemy, if a “favourable opportunity for the purpose offered, but otherwise to return “to the army by the same route.” It is known. In future, you must not detach the Jyshe [on such service], but only separate [or straggling] parties of horse, to whom you must give orders to seize and bring in all the camels, horses, and other booty they can.
