Ten Days in Bosnia - Bosnian peasants and wagon, 1895. 'In 1875 [the raya - member of the tax-paying lower class of Ottoman society] rose again, and this time, fighting with singular bravery, he dealt a blow at the power of the Porte which in some measure contributed to its final overthrow. Three years later the Berlin Congress assigned to Austria the two provinces which the Turk had proved himself so incapable of governing; and after eighteen days' severe fighting, the army of Baron Joseph Philiporic, which descended from the Danube, joined the forces of Baron Jovanowitz, which came up from Metkovitch, and a sanguinary struggle in the streets and about the citadel of Serajevo closed the scene of death and of misrule' From "Illustrated London News", 1895.
