Excerpt from The Captivity, Sufferings, and Escape, of James Scurry, Who Was Detained a Prisoner During Ten Years, in the Dominions of Hyder Ali and Tippoo Saib
For the particulars which follow, respecting the narrator's early life and family connexions, the publisher is indebted to his widow and son, who reside in London. From the same source he has also obtained those concluding branches of Mr. Scurry's history, which trace him from his return to England to his death, which took place in 1822.
