Death of the Wuzeer of Lahore, 1845. Creator: Unknown
Death of the Wuzeer of Lahore, 1845. The assassination of Jawahar Singh Aulakh, Wazir of the Sikh Empire, at Lahore in India:the Wuzeer was unarmed, without even his sword or shield, and carried a small parasol...a volley of musketry was directed against Jowahir Singh. The first discharge not taking effect, the Wuzeer prayed they would spare him, and seized the opportunity of a momentary pause to assure the troops that he had, at that moment, one sack full of rupees and another of golden bracelets and armlets with him, ready for distribution amongst them. This communication had an effect the reverse of what the Sirdar seemed to expect, and, the firing having been forthwith renewed, the Wuzeer was soon put out of his misery. From " Illustrated London News", 1845, Vol VII
