Framed Print of Sketches with the Anglo-Siam Boundary Commission, 1890. Creator: R. Taylor
Sketches with the Anglo-Siam Boundary Commission, 1890. A subject of great interest to political and commercial geography is the situation of the long eastern frontier of the British dominions in Burmah, and in Tenasserim, south of Martaban and Moulmein, bordering on the dominions of the kingdom of Siam and the extensive territories of the Shan tribes, forming a considerable nation, ruled by their own chiefs and "Tswabwas, " who are tributary to the kingdom...an expedition has been sent from Mandalay, proceeding beyond the Salween, through the Burmese Shan territories, to ascertain the proper boundary of Siamese sovereignty; and we have received from an officer of this expedition, Captain G. F. Mockler, of the 52nd Light Infantry, the Sketches now published. The troops of the escort were encamped for their start, on Nov. 27, at the Meiktila Road railway Station, to the south of Mandalay; they marched east to Fort Stedman, and thence south to the Karen country, where they crossed the Salween River. Portraits of a Shan Tswabwa, or district chief, a Shan constable, and a guide, and a sketch of a canoe or dug-out boat on a lake, are included among these sketches. The Shans are loyal and peaceable in these parts of the Burmese dominion'. From "Illustrated London News", 1890.
