It is described as Jnne a place of considerable strength, situated upon a perpen- dicular rock 300 feet in height, and about a mile in circumference, the top overhanging the base on all sides but one, and the only approach by steps cut in the face of the rock, with a ladder twenty feet long, through a natural arch at one part ; so that the fort might easily have held its own. The Kilad^r of Utradrug was more faithful to his trust ; and Lord Comwallis, not intending to delay, left it and Sdvandr...ug, and once more took up his position at Bangalore on the 11th July, where he immediately Jniy began to recruit his means for the recommencement, in the cold season, of operations against Seringapatam. Colonel Duff was again appointed to the command at this place, to enable him to prepare the siege train, which was to be completed from Madras and Bengal. Lieutenant H. Douglas was retained as commissary of ordnance. On the 15th July the army, with a small battering train of two 24, two 18, and four 12-pounders, moved forward to open the Palikod pass, through which led the principal line of communication with the Camatic, by depriving the enemy of the different forts commanding itw Major Qowdie, who had been detached before with the 7th Brigade, on the same day occupied Ossoor, which was evacuated on his approach.
