21 In the early part of a.d. 1827, a syud named
22 Ahmed Sliah raised a disturbance in the Punjab.
23 He set himself up for a reformer ; and though a.
24 Mussulman, he was as inveterate against'the fol¬
25 lowers of Mahomed, as he was against the Sikhs;
26 but Ms ire was more especially excited against
27 those Mussulmans who owned the Sikh supremacy
28 across the Indus, or entered their service. Syud
29 Ahmed was a fanatic ; and, like others of this stamp,
30 was a dangerous and seditious character. He pro¬
31 ceeded towards Peshawur, where he concealed him¬
32 self among the hills in the vicinity, and numerous
33 followers flocked around his standard. The Maha¬
34 rajah sent a large force against this fanatic, who,
35 at the head of an immense rabble, attacked the
