Image title
Mission Post. The caption in Tibet and Lhasa reads: 'This is where the Mission sustained what may almost be called a state of siege for several months. They were under constant fire from the Jong, and on the occasion of the first fight at Kha-Ru-La, when many of the garrison were away with the force, a large body of the enemy attempted to rush the Mission Post, and one man actually got over the wall'.
