Whitehall, June 18. Extract of a letter from Major Hector
Munro, commanding in chief his Majesty's and the East-India
Company's troops in Bengal, . . . dated at the camp at
Bauxar . . . [description of victory over the King and Vizir
of Hindostan] I went out with some of the principal
officers to reconnoitre their situation, intending to attack
them the following day; but finding their whole army under
arms, returned to camp, ordered in our advanced posts and
grand guards, the drums to beat to arms, and in less than 20
minutes after the line of battle was formed, having made my
disposition for it the day before. . .
