Description2nd Dorsets to deploy from Baird Barracks, Bangalore to Malabar.jpg |
English: 2nd Dorsets to deploy from Baird Barracks, Bangalore to Malabar. On receipt of the request for support, General Burnett-Stuart immediately ordered 2nd Dorsets to deploy from Baird Barracks, Bangalore to Malabar. They were quickly under way, having been on standby since the previous month, in two trains. The Dorsets were followed by a cavalry squadron of the Bays and a section of artillery, and together the force was to move to Podanur where it would concentrate, under the command of Colonel Humphreys. A patrol train, sent out and found the line clear as far as Shoranur. Troop trains were pushed on to that point dropping a few detachments to guard key points en route.
Arriving in Malabar, the Dorsets received word that an isolated detachment of the Leinsters was in trouble at Malapuram. The immediate need, however, was to restore railway communication with Calicut, and headquarters were sent on to Kuttipuram, to which point the line had been hastily repaired, to cover the reconstruction. |
