" With reference to the exterior army , the R ^ ans hold their strong position on the Mackenzie Heights , extending by Aitodor to Albat , with advanced posts by rhouli Oeenbash , and the strong tango of heights lo ^ eXng T-S urkusta and the valley of Baidar . It is reported they have also a force of artillery and infantry It Alupkflu The French have pushed forward the whole of their cavalry into the valley of Baidar , resting upon the SardSians ? upon the left bank of the Souha .
