Hearsay captured Champawat due to Kumauni fighters and Subedar Bahadur Singh. Hearsay wrote a letter to Gardner on 1st March 1815 wherein he clearly noted that the win was solely due to Kuamuni soldiers and not due to Rohila soldiers.
Hearsay demanded money and gun, bullets as gifts for rewarding Kumaunis. Hearsay tried for purchasing guns from Pilibhit for gifting to Kuamunis. Hearsay proposed that British should oofer Rs 50/- , Dushala and a turban to each Group leaders of Fartyal, Mahra, Tadagi etc groups. He proposed rewards for soldiers who participated in winning Champawat and other influential people of Kumaon too.
