On the front of the huge Post Office in this Square is a slab marking the site of the "Black Hole" tragedy, when 148 English people were forced into a small guard-room with only two small windows in the heat of June, 1756, and only 23 came out alive. Lord Curzon has erected a monument to commemorate this tragic episode. [end]
