Peshawar Robberies and Hillmen Tactics in 19th Century Cantonments
A detailed account from Peshawar describes the cantonment as a pivotal military hub near the frontier with about ten regiments and multiple artillery batteries. It recounts robberies by hill tribes and Afghans, including tunnel breaches, horse theft using water-soaked cords, and silent home invasions. The piece also details watchmen, firearm safekeeping efforts, and the brutal discipline among assailants and sentries, illustrating the constant security challenges in the valley and the ingenuity of thieves.
