Excerpt from Narrative of the Political and Military Transactions of British India, Under the Administration of the Marquess of Hastings, 1813 to 1818 Hands, the train of events, of which a faithful and plain relation is here submitted, might have been wrought into a form, that would have awakened a lively interest in the general, as well as the curious or interested reader.
