''Note: National, provincial and district boundaries have changed considerably since 1908. Typically, old states, ‘divisions’ and districts have been broken into smaller units, and many tahsils upgraded to districts. Some units have since been renamed. Therefore, this article is being posted mainly for its historical value. ''

Hari Singh, the Sikh governor of Peshawar. It is now the head-quarters
of the Khyber Rifles, and is the collecting station for the Khyber tolls,
and contains a considerable sarai. A large mobilization camping-
