THE GORDONS ASSAULTING THE DARGAI CLIFF, OCTOBER 20, 1897.

By permission, from a sketch made on the field by the special correspondent of the London "Daily Graphic." The Gordons are seen rushing across the open zone of fire, to gain the protection of the foot of the cliff and thence mount and turn the enemy's flank. In the foreground is Piper Findlater, who, a little later, was shot through both legs, but still went on piping the "Cock o' the North," for the inspiritment of the Gordons.
