On hearing of the arrival of the mutineers from Meerut, went to consult with the Commissioner, Simon Fraser, and thence drove into the city with the object of closing the Dehli Gate. Here he fell in with a party of the 3rd Cavalry, who tried to stop him, but he managed to get past them and eventually escaped to Kurnaul, where he, throughout the most critical period of the mutiny, rendered most valuable service in keeping open communications between the Dehli Camp, Umballa and Meerut, and in collecting and forwarding supplies of all sorts to the British forces engaged in the siege. His health broke down, and he died at sea on his way home. |
