v3.c34.s13.6
After halting on the west bank on the 22nd, the English brigade recrossed the river to their old ground, a mile from Rāmghāt, leaving a strong body to guard that ford. Next day, at the news that Holkar was raiding Morādābād, the brigade began a rapid march north-eastwards to the rescue of the Ruhelas. At the end of the second day (26th March) news came that the Maratha raiders had fled back across the Ganges. So, General Barker returned to Rāmghāt on the 28th.
