Side 603 - DEAR SIR, — I have the pleasure of acknowledging the receipt of your letter of the...
Side 275 - I found not only their infantry, but their cavalry, encamped in a most formidable position, which, by the by, it would have been impossible for me to attack, if, when the infantry changed their front, they had taken care to occupy the only passage there was across the Kaitna. " When I found their whole army, and contemplated their position, of course I considered whether I should attack immediately, or should delay till the following morning. I determined upon the immediate attack, because I saw...
Side 260 - British cavalry, charged one large body of infantry, which had retired and was formed again, in which operation he was killed ; and some time elapsed before we could put an end to the straggling fire, which was kept up by individuals from the guns from which the enemy were driven.

Besides, I knew that the enemy had passed the Ghaut, and that...
Side 276 - ... and the great loss we sustained was in these two bodies.

Side 633 - I have ordered him to quit the Nizam's territories, and not to come near this army. The answer of the vakeel is natural. It is, " Where is a man to go, who is not...
Side 485 - I went out to push forward the pickets of the infantry to support the Mysore cavalry, and to take up the ground of our encampment, I could perceive distinctly a long line of infantry, cavalry, and artillery, regularly drawn up on the plains of Argaum, immediately in front of that village, and about six miles from this place, at which I intended to encamp.
