Summary[edit]

Description
English: Track Chart of Punitive Expedition against Arab Chief Mbarak Bin Rashid, Gazi-Mweke, July - August 1895. Quote: On 12 August 1895, he was a member of the Naval Expeditionary force of 400 men from H.M. Ships ST GEORGE (Flag), PHOEBE, RACOON, BARROSA and BLONDE with two maxims, a 7 pdr gun and a rocket tube, together with 110 native troops and 800 porters, who started inland from Mombasa to punish Mburuk bin Rashid, Chief of Mwele. After repulsing an attack at Nololo on 16 August the force arrived before Mwele on the 17th of August. When the 7 pdr gun had thrown a few shells into the stockade, part of the force with two maxims made a flanking movement to the left, while the remainder moved directly forward to within 300 yards of the earthworks. A Company of RACOON's people drew the enemy's fire, while two companies of ST GEORGE's men, under Lieutenants C. P. Carpendale and W. J. Frazer, rushed the stockade. Chief Mburak escaped, but two of his sons were killed and two of his standards were taken, one by Lieutenant Frazer. The British losses were three killed and eleven wounded. reference
