Andrew Dalgleish (1853 – 1888, on Karakoram Pass, between Ladakh, India and China) was a Scottish trader, traveller and government agent during the Great Game.
[1] Dalgleish was murdered by an Afghan named Dad Mahomed, a Kakar Pathan from Quetta who was once a merchant but had gone bankrupt.
Mahomed did not immediately flee but instead forced Dalgleish's servants to make him a meal, then he slept in his victim's tent.
[1] During his travels through Qing China's Xinjiang Province from 1889–90, British military officer Hamilton Bower attempted without success to pursue Dalgleish's killer.
A small memorial made of marble slab was erected by Bower on the desolate site of his death.
