About the 10th of November, 1853, or some time after, the Nana left the Benares, tini vessel was oruising about the dalta of the River Soape to prevent the momentarily, expensted sitanipt of the subols to cross the Ganges to the Tur attorem about sunset this caree nakove in elevor fathome at the junelion of Sharabu shore.

As voor as it became dark Amar and his master lowered the bar in the holy mad Tonsire earthwerka armed with brana grim sud swarming with Sopor infantry and artillery of the Ganges, and the promise now was fulfilled while cavalry were here and there visible. The to the letter. boats were all fully manned, and the whole done garu evidenes that all was in readiness for the transport of the whole rebel army to the Sharabad shore, where 250,000 zacu were ready to take the fall as scon as the chiofe and ein army had safely crossed the river, Tho commodore sew at onge that nothing but an immediate and encovssful attack by the Henares could save Indio from all the horror of a renewal of the campaign on a greater and more more desperate basis, just at a time when the generally stemoralized and enferblod condition of the British forces would have been an easy prey to the universal desperta and de- termined reaction that then thrilled throngs both Hindo al Mohammedan population, awing to the warder of the Prince of Delhi and the rapito and plundering by the 80,000

hoorkas.

When the commodore Ind himself been to the masthead, and soon the superiority of the robel forcer, yot fenting that this might be the field of the decisive battle of the campaign and that it must be fought, he gave the order to prepare for action and started fall speed ahead through the labyrinthal nallas or creeks of the delta, searahing for the only inlet into the Lagoon.

By 2 o'clock in the afternicon the Bentres bol reached the centre of the lagoon where the tookout oft reported that the month of the inlet was being blockaded by large boats armed with heavy canon.

On reading this note the young commodore's face Bibed and palod ja rapid mncession while storm of conflicting emotions witivinable by all except the faithful Amor raged within him. Then he addressed his crew; "Officers and. men of the Berara You seo we are surroguiled and hemmed in on all sides by an oerwheltaing forcu.

"No, captain, no! No errander! We will fight the heathens with you to the bitter and!" The words wore those of the gallant young Frishmen, O'Brien, and they were schuel by all on board. The commodoro hastily wrote his brief reply and handed it to the monoager. It read theas Ilis Excellency, Nana Sahib My resolution is unchangeable: You know the cause. Surrender is impossible. Lol.
