“This Redoubt is a strongly constructed square stone building with two gates, one facing the river, the other facing inland, above which is a sloping ascent or ramp leading to an opening in the parapet. On the opposite, or left bank of the river, is the fort of Kooey-joung, an important work constructed for the King by Italian Engineers. Both these forts completely command the river, and, it being known that the enemy intended to dispute our passage at this point, a force was landed on either bank a short distance below for the purpose of dislodging them. The resistance expected on the Kooey-joung side was not met with, but the force which was marching on the Mindhla redoubt…encountered a large body of the enemy strongly posted in a village, surrounded by jungle, about a mile inland.”
