Tipu invaded [[Travancore]] on 29 December 1789 and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Cornwallis%2C_1st_Marquess_Cornwallis Lord Cornwallis] declared the opening of hostilities on 27 January 1790.
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Medows General William Medows] was appointed to command the British forces but waged an ineffectual campaign in 1790 eventually being recalled to Madras. Cornwallis took control of the Company forces in January 1791 fighting a series of action actions culminating in the [[Siege of Seringapatam1792|Siege of Seringapatam]]. The [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_of_Seringapatam Treaty of Seringapatam ] on 18 March 1792 arranged the payment of £3 million by Tipu and the ceding of [[Malabar]] and [[Palghat]] to the Company.
