Memorial dedicated to Lieutenant Colonel John Campbell Öffentlichkeit Deposited

Memorial erected by the East India Company in memory of Lieutenant Colonel John Campbell, who bravely defended Mangalore for eight months when it was laid siege by the Kingdom of Mysore (supported by the French) during the Second Anglo-Mysore War (1780-1784).
