Excerpt from Memorials of Service in India: From the Correspondence of the Late Major Samuel Macpherson, C. B
These Memorials tell of a barbarous race won over from dark and cruel rites; and of an important Indian State rendered in the hour of need a mainstay of the Empire, when its defection would have involved that of every Native Power. They Show how these Objects were attained through the benevolence, the sagacity, and the firmness of an Officer whose name is almost unknown to the British public, but whose earnest desire was that good men Should think well of him. They may also serve to convey to the reader some idea of the labours and anxieties of Indian Political life.
