DIED, 

 

In camp, at Doolia, on the 13th of March, 1823, brevet captain William Graham THURNAM, of the 7th Bombay Regiment of Infantry, and
Brigade Major to the forces at Malligaum. The death of this brave and excellent officer will be regretted by the whole army; the
service has lost a most distinguished member, and his numerous friends a most honourable and pleasant companion.—So far the Bombay
Government Gazette. Captain THURNAM was a native of Carlisle, brother to Mr. THURNAM of this city, and had often distinguished
himself; but particularly in the Arabian Gulph in 1821, under General SMITH. On that occasion his great gallantry was flatteringly
noticed in a General Order; and a private letter in the Asiatic Register thus speaks of him: "No men could fight more nobly than the
enemy: 500 were killed and wounded. Mr. GORDON (surgeon) is cut to pieces. Capt. STEWART severely wounded in the head. Lieut. and
Adjt. THURNAM is wounded, but not dangerously: he cut down four fellows, and behaved excellently." For his conduct during this
expedition Capt. T. was advanced to the rank which he enjoyed at the time of his decease.
