The Sole Survivor of the Cabul Garrison, 1842 by Harry Payne. (PC)
Dr William Brydon, wounded, exhausted, and with a tiring steed beneath him, is the lone survivor of a force of around 16,000 soldiers and others who had been ousted from Cabul (modern day Kabul) in November 1842. Assured of a safe retreat through the freezing Khyber Pass in January 1843, the force was treacherously slaughtered over many days. Those who remained were killed or taken prisoner at a last stand at Gandamak, but a few had become separated, including Dr William Brydon. The last six survivors were set upon by villagers and killed, with the sole exception of Dr Brydon, who escaped to tell the horrific tale. |
