The sequel, however, will prove that they could not, and that the whole line of their con- duct towards the Burman Court, has been at the best but very doubtful ; evincing as much political juggling as could well be played off by any government on earth. Although many of the Mugh insurgents had been captured. by the British authorities, still Kimgberring contrived to evade them, and con- tinued to lurk in the Mils in the vicinity of Ramoo and Cox's Bazaar; while the Mughs who had fled with him ...from Arracan lived by a system of plundering the inhabitants of the plains, in the manner of Dakaits, or Banditties, attacking the houses of the inhabitants in armed bodies of forty Digitized by Google 80 or fifty, and again retiring with their booty into . the fastnesses in the hills where all trace of them was lost. A pretty situation for a fertile province, by neglect and bad management to be reduced to. Towards the end of August, 1813, Kingberring had the audacity to address a letter to the com- manding officer of the Post of Ramoo, avowing his intentions of again invading Arracan, and desiring the British Government might not interpose to prevent the prosecution of his designs, as they were not directed against their interests.
