Here British women and children and their faithful Indian ayah are about to be rescued by soldiers from a Scots regiment. Engraving after the painting of 1858, 'In Memoriam: Henry Havelock'. From "The Life and Deeds of Earl Roberts, Vol. I. - To The End of the Indian Mutiny", by J. Maclaren Cobban. [T. C. & E. C. Jack, Edinburgh, 1901]
