Description |
English: 'Fortress of Jellalabad', 1858 (c) On the extreme right of General Outram’s position was the fort of Jellalabad, which was occupied by our troops, and formed a very strong post. It is almost surrounded with lakes and marshes, from which the markets of Lucknow are supplied with wild-fowl. The officers stationed here picked up a kind of punt, in which they used to make expeditions over these extensive sheets of water in search of game; and on more than one occasion an adventurous party have narrowly escaped falling into the hands of the enemy’s sowars, who rode into the shallow water, and pursued the flying sportsmen at a pace far superior to that at which their utmost exertions could propel the wretched old punt. |
