The author was one of the four to have escaped the massacre committed by the Nana and the Indian sepoys, and lived to tell the tale. Seeing the discontentment brewing among the native sepoys, in December 1856, Thomson's regiment was called from Cuttack to Cawnpore. The Company included more than a thousand Europeans. On 5 June 1857, on account of a rumour that Indian troops were to be massacred, it influenced the sepoys to rebel against the East India Company. Amidst the chaos, Nana Sahib, the Peshwa Emperor, arrived in Cawnpore, stating at first that he intended to support the British. However, he joined the rebels. The British were unprepared but despite it, held on valiantly for a long time, almost three weeks, in a makeshift fort, before they surrendered. Most of them died due to bombardment, cholera, dysentery and small-pox. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Capt.
