Can you recount the story of Kashiram's confrontation with the Bhil robbers?

Certainly. Chapter 0 narrates an incident where Kashiram was returning from a market on his horse and was ambushed by Bhil robbers. The robbers took some of his belongings and then tried to seize a small bundle he carried, mistaking it for treasure. This bundle, containing only powdered sugar for feeding ants as advised by a saint, was very dear to him. When he resisted, one of the thieves dropped his sword. Kashiram picked it up and killed two of them, but a third thief struck him on the head with an axe, leaving him unconscious. The robbers fled, thinking he was dead, but he later regained consciousness.
