Text Appearing After Image: 575. Lama of Chokchu on Horseback. Lxxii LAST DAYS IN UNKNOWN COUNTRY 397 Shovo-tso we saw a large caravan of yaks and sheep whichseemed to have the same destination as ourselves. Lob-sang found out that the people were nekoras or pilgrimson the way to Kang-rinpoche, and that the owner of thecaravan was the Governor of Chokchu, Sonam Ngurbu(Illust. 372). We left them behind and rode up tothe pass Tela-mata-la. A horseman approached us at agallop, and made signs to us to halt. We waited forhim, all on the tiptoe of expectation, for we made surethat he brought us a message from Abdul Kerim.Bah! it was only one of Sonam Ngurbus soldiers whowanted to ask our guides if a spring on the way toSelipuk had any water in it this year. Sonam Ngurbuscaravan had come from Tabie-tsaka and had not hearda word of our men. It seemed as though the earth hadswallowed them up. My orders had been that, whateverelse they did, they should wait for us on the Buptsang-tsangpo. Doubtless they had been plundered
