Here he served throughout the siege, being wounded twice, once very severely. After the Relief of Lucknow and a short visit to Calcutta, Lawrence was posted to Oonao, which district remained disturbed for some months, giving him ample opportunity of showing what stuff he was made of. But hard work and exposure told on him, and he was invalided home at the end of 1858. |
