There is now no break in the zone. In 1893 ^ Commission under Sir Mortimer Durand, in concert with the Amir's agents, demarcated the boundary of Afghanistan, with the exception of a small part in the Mohmand country, where a Commission is now engaged in defining the border. The boundary thus demarcated marks the other side of the frontier-zone, now no longer an ill- defined jumble of mountains, but a clearly outlined rampart between India and Afghanistan. The fact that this zone has been clearl...y demarcated on its further side implies that the intervening country is no longer a terra incognita. This is so to a very ?rr.
