Peace and war letters between Tippoo and Cornwallis 1792
A late 18th century London Gazette excerpt outlines Cornwallis's peace overtures to Tippoo Sultan and reactions from Tippoo, Hurry Punt, and the Peshwa. It narrates capitulation disputes at Coimbatore, negotiations proposed through deputies, and translated letters debating capitulation terms and prisoner releases. It also includes a detailed battle report near Semoga and Seringapatam with casualty tallies and gun captures.
