Rh executed, named to the writer of this volume the place where the Náná was hiding in Nepál.

With this brief sketch of the operations in Northern India we leave Sir Colin Campbell and his gallant troops in order to review those movements which had been carried out, during some part of the same period, southwards in Central India. It only remains to say that Sir Colin Campbell, after staying in India long enough to see the embers of the great Sepoy revolt smoulder away, left Calcutta on June 4th, 1860. He had been raised to the peerage for his services in India, and as Field-Marshal Lord Clyde died at Chatham on August 14th, 1863, generally beloved and regretted. On the stone that marks the spot where he lies in Westminster Abbey he is worthily named as one 'who by his own deserts through fifty years of arduous service, from the earliest battles of the Peninsular War to the pacification of India in 1858, rose to the rank of Field-Marshal and the peerage. He died lamented by the Queen, the Army, and the people, on the 14th of August, 1863, in the 71st year of his age.'
