I now ordered the retreat after this manner. We should hurry down hill and up the next undu- lation, so as to deceive the enemy with the idea of a precipitate retreat. This would induce an advance on their side. The Baris would be certain to follow us at full speed if they supposed we were afraid of them. It was my intention to cross rapidly the first undulation, where my men would for a few minutes be out of view of the enemy, and there to conceal them in a deserted village which I had noticed... during our advance. This would be an ambush that would take the Baris by sur- prise, as they would imagine we had passed ahead, they would, therefore, come near the village. " The order to the ' right about ' was given, and my men, who took a keen interest in the plan, commenced so precipitate a march down hill, that my horse was forced to a jog-trot.
