They had placed four or five guns iu position on a hill 5.400 yards east of the British camp and fired plugged shells. The artillery did no damage. The British infantry formed for an attack and got their guns into position. After the position of the Doers had been shelled the British infantry ad vanced to the attack and after a hard fight, ]as Qng until 1:u p. m., an almost inaccessible nosition was taken, the Boers retreating eastward. All of the Boer guns were captured. General Symonds, the British com mander, was wounded. A rough estimate places the British loss at 250 kiled and wounded and the Boers at 300.
