--- Taken from "Eighteen Fifty Seven" by Surendra Nath Sen, 1957, Govt. of India, page 272:
Captain Dunlop and other military officers still hoped to keep the rest of the troops steady and they slept in their lines. On the 6th, however, Bakshish Ali, the Jail Darogah joined the Mutiny with his guards and the sepoys not only shot Captain Dunlop, Lieutenant Turnbull, and Ensign Taylor but also two Havildars and a sepoy who had tried to protect the last named officer. Lieutenant Campbell of the 14th Cavalry was wouded but according to one account he managed to keep his seat and reached the fort.

--- "A History of the Indian Mutiny, 1857-58" by George W. Forrest, page 6:
Captain Dunlop spent the morning at the quarter-guard preparing shells for his intended assault on the Star Magazine. In the afternoon, as he was returning from the Post Office accompanied by Ensign Taylor*, he was saluted on nearing the parade by shots from some men of his regiment. Dunlop fell dead and Taylor severely wounded. "Two havildars and a sepoy hid the latter under a charpoy (bed), but to no purpose."**

*The young lad had been with his brothers, and had made great haste to rejoin on the mutinies breaking out at other stations. He reached Jhansi a few days before he was slain.
