"The opening of "Cawnpore" introduces the geographical and historical context of Cawnpore, emphasizing its significance as a military station and detailing the diverse population comprising British soldiers, civilians, and native troops. Trevelyan sets the stage for the looming crisis by discussing the uneasy state of relations between these groups, highlighting the underlying tensions festering among the sepoys.
