The Battle of
WandeWash
BY Rev. Thomas B. Gregary.

TIME Battle of Wandewash.
fought 1913 years ago, has
not received the place in
world history to which it is enti-
tied. Off-hand, not one person in
a thousand would be able to say
where, when or between what con-
testants the battle was fought
and yet Wandewash gave England
the proud empireship of India, that
wonderland, with its 30O,O0O,OO0 of
people, its magnificent plains,
mountains and rivers; its gems and
gold and all its wealth of ancient
story.
In 1745, just before Give took
charge in the great Oriental PENN
sula, the prospect was blue for
England. The French, with head
quarters at Pondicherry. seemed
everywhere to have the advantage
which they could not very well lose.
Under the leadership of Duneix
they were winning tiumphs on
every hand, and the outlook for
the Britisher was most forlorn.
Only at Fort st. David, a few
miles south Of Pondicherry, where
Give and a few other fugitives
found shelter, did England have
any sort of hold upon the soil of
India.
But Give was host within him
self. and his heaven born genius"
soon began to make itself felt in
ways that were to prove substan-
tial and permanent. At Plassy and
Arcot Give put a new race upon
the English situation in the land of
the Rajahs, and the rule of the
French was shaken to its founda-
ton.
That rule was, however. still su-
preme in the Ocean. as we'll as in
the great region known as the
Northern Circuit" and to make
matters worse, Give, prostrated by
the climate and his excessive la =
DORIS was forced to return to Eng
land for rest and recuperation.
Such was the situation i'm 1860
when Sir Eyre Coote Won the great
victory at. Wandewash over the
French General Lally. Between
WandeWash and Waterloo there is
a vast difference in fame. as well
as in the numbers engaged and the
celebrity Of the chief actors, but
despite this difference the fact is
indisputable that what Waterloo
did for French rule in Europe
WandeWash did for the same rule
in the Orient.
There is. by the way, a lot of real
human interest in the story of the
two men who commanded the
opposing forces at Wandewash-
Coote and Lally
TO begin with, they were both
Irishmen. Coote was born in Linn
erick, and Lally though born in
France, came of Irish stock which
emigrated to France along with the
Stuaws.
And both, again, are admirable
