[edit] dates and personalities

Hi - - If this battle took place in 1757, it could hardly have been fought by Tipu Sultan, who was 7 years old that year. Is the date wrong or information about who fought it? - - Anon

Hi - - I see that in the earliest version of this page, the date is given as 1787. I am therefore reverting the date of this battle to 1787. - - Anon
