The Calcutta Review October 1899

1899

So the commonplace Dutchman who had actually lived in that stormy time the life of the fabled Halcyon died before the evil days came ; and while the bones of the brilliant Bellasis lay in an unmarked ditch of Bundekund his remains were interred in the finest monument of the whole Cetnetry fashioned in the likeness of the famous Taj Mahal and decorated by a fulsome epitaph as long as a lead [...] tion Drugeon was across the river and made the occupants of the tents prisoners.' In November of the following year the Coloncl was put in charge of the palace and person of the blind Emperor at Delhi ; Duprat succeeding to his brigade. [...] CHAPTER X. The chief interest of the concluding portion of the story arises out of the character and conduct of the officer to whom Daulat Rao made over the command of the Regulars and the civil charge of the territory assigned for their support on the departure of Gen. [...] This was a stronghold walled with clay a material almost impervious to round-shot ; and the nature of the surronnding soil rendered the approach of heavy guns peculiarly difficult : the water-supply moreover was deficient ; and the shrubs of the surrounding jungle did not afford timber of sufficient scantling to be of use to the works of a besieging army. [...] For the moment we will leave the General in the command of the army and of the country with the enjoyment of his vast property and of an apparently impregnable position.
