Sebuah Monument Berbahasa Inggris di Bekas Benteng Probolinggo

Dulunya monument yang teronggok di sekitaran bekas benteng Probolinggo ini kami kira kerkhof, ternyata sebuah momument yang menuliskan peristiwa tahun 1813 dan berbahasa inggris. Kurang lebih tulisannya :
"Sacred
To the memory of
Lieut. Col Jamesfraser and Cap. Jamempherson
Or his majestys 18th highland regiment
Who were barbarously murdered by a band of insugents
Near Probolingo on the night of the 18t
Of May 1813
This monument is erected over the remains by their brother
Officers as a mark of the.......steem in which
They held their worth
And
Virtues"
