¹ [The Sīprā (Seeprah) river lies to the north of Ujjain. The battle is known as the battle of Mahīdpur, and is the only action in the third Marāthā War in which there was any considerable European element in the British forces engaged. Other battles, such as Kirkee, Sītābaldi and Koregāon, were won almost entirely by native troops under the command of trusted British officers. (O.H.I., p. 631.)]
