Detail  In consequence of the wounds he received at the battle of Deeg, on the 13th, in gallantly executing the plans he had himself so judiciously formed for the late successful attack upon the infantry and artillery of Holkar, Major-general Fraser, of the 88th Foot, a most valuable officer, leaving a large family, consisting, it is believed, of seven sons, one of whom was with him when he received the fatal wound. The funeral ceremony evinced, by its pomp and the number of mourners, the high estimation in which he was held.
