Towe. About ½ Way betw Kidderpoor & the Fort I was met by two men, I did not then know that there were more. We had then quitted the great road that leads to Calcutta and were upon the great Road that leads from thence into the Fort to the Gate of St. Geo. I think we were then above 200 yards from the Calcutta Road.

The place is on thos sode of Tolley’s Canal.

A Servt was carrying a lantern before us, and a man struck out the light and broke the lantern
