Summary Remarks  Bombay Courier – December 26th 1818. We briefly noticed in our last number an affair at Lohaur in which Lieutenant Stamper, Adjutant of the 2/7 was wounded. We are happy to learn that subsequent accounts state that the ball has been extracted from this officer's side, and that he is doing well. The village of Lohaur is 20 miles distant from Ahmedabad. The force who took the village consisted two six-pounders under Lieutenant Forster, a squadron of the 2nd Cavalry under Major Turner, about 500 of the 2/7 under Captain Burford, and 250 of the 2/8 under Lieutenant Colonel Edwards. The whole under the command of the Honourable Lieutenant Colonel Lincoln Stanhope.
