Sec. iv]   DARÊL OLD AND NEW   29

of many a bloody deed and, as far as Tangir was concerned, probably also by a genuine love of the former turbulent independence. So in the winter of 1917 a conspiracy hatched in Tangir proved successful, and Raja Pakhtûn Wali was cruelly murdered with an axe while watching the construction of a mosque at Lurg. With his life the chiefship also came to a sudden end. The Tangiri tribesmen, with the Gabar-khél to the fore, at once plundered and burned down Pakhtûn Wall's old stronghold at Jaglôt (Fig. 25). Gumare-k& was then attacked and sacked by the Darêlis, who are said to have razed its walls to the ground. The Raja's wives, children and near relations, including Mehtarjao Shah `Alam, were forced to flee to independent territory westwards, where most of them live now in Kandia as hapless refugees subsisting on charity. The story is of a type familiar in the history of these regions. But I am glad to have known its chief actor.
