500        |a This image is part of album U. This album and the preceding one both refer to the time between 1927 and 1928 when Mills was posted as Acting Deputy Commissioner to Cachar, in the southern part of Assam. The adminsitrative headquarters was at Silchar in the plains, but the area which particularly concerned Mills was the hill country of North Cachar. This was regarded as the Cinderella of Subdivisions, to which officers were often sent temporarily while waiting for a better posting. They usually had no experience of working with hill tribes and were not interested in learning about their customs and history. Mills, with his vast experience of the hill tribes was asked to sort out the resultant mess, and took it as golden opportunity to study and photograph the people and their way of life. The album also contains a few photographs from other areas.

It was here that Mills heard what sounded like heavy artillery being fired towards the south. No one seemed to know the explanation. Ursula Graham-Bower later reported hearing a similar sound from Laisong, appearing to come from the Silchar area. The phenomenon is described in "Enigmas" by R.T. Gould, published in 1929].
