21 Lahore to MVoltan, fifty miles north-east of the latter city. It is

28 from Kelat, by way of Nal, to Sonmeanee, seventy miles south-
29 west of Kelat. The surrounding country, which is rather
30 fertile, is cultivated to a limited extent, and the road in this part
31 of the route is good. Lat. 28° 5’, long. 66° 2’.

33 the two rivers Chenaub and Jailum, and very near their junction.
34 Lat. 31° 9’, long. 72° 7’.
35 LALABEG.—A small expansion or valley in the Khyber Pass,
36 nearly half-way between its extremities. It is remarkable for a tope,
37 or artificial mound, of great dimensions and high antiquity ; the
38 dilapidation of which so far exposes its structure, as to shew
39 that it is solid and built of unburnt bricks laid in mortar. There
40 are two square platforms, one rising above the other and display-
41 ing some attempts at architectural ornament. These are sur-
42 mounted by a solid dome-shaped building, one hundred and ten
43 yards in circumference and fifty feet high, the base being accessi-
44 ble by a flight of steps. Its origin and the date of its erection
45 are unknown, but it has been supposed to be a dhagope or Bud-
46 hist monument, intended to preserve the remains of some eminent
47 - person of that persuagion; and at the same time to enshrine
48 some relic connected with the same belief. Lat. 34° 8’, long.
49 71°17’,
50 LALLEE, in the Punjab, a town in the Doab of Jinhut, and
51 nearly equidistant from the Chenaub and the Jailum. It is
52 situate in a level desert tract, and at the base of an inconsi-
53 derable eminence, the summit of which is occupied by a station
54 of fakirs, and is also a much frequented place of pilgrimage. The
55 population of the town is about 5,000. Lat. 31° 49’, long. 72°
