Item description from seller

Five galley-proofs of articles written during the high-point of the Raj by leading Victorian journalist in India W. Martin Wood (editor of the Times of India, founder and editor of the Bombay Review). Ephemeral items, creased and worn, but with text clear and entire. ONE: Headed ‘ALLEN’S INDIAN MAIL / THE LATE MR. EDWARD BROOME, C.E. / Mr. M. Martin Wood writes to us as follows: -’. Sixty-two lines in small print follow, beginning: ‘Some little time back your "Domestic Occurrences" contained the name of Mr. Edward Broome, Civil Engineer, as having died at Southport, something under 60 years of age. It struck me then that a note of Mr. Broome’s quiet work in India ought to be made’. TWO: Annotated at head by Wood, ‘India Sep 16th. [1902]’. Sixty-eight lines of small print. Three sections, concerning drought ‘in Gujerat and the Deccan’. The first begins: ‘An esteemed correspondent writes: Telegrams from India, during the last few weeks, have told us very little about the suspension, and, in certain districts, what almost threatens failure of the later monsoon rains.’ The second starts: ‘But this passive creed is nto that of their masters from the West’. The third: ‘Meantime, what has become of the Scott-Moncrieff comprehensive Water-Supply and Irrigation Report?’ THREE: Headed ‘INDIA’S CHRONIC DEFICIT. / [FROM AN ANGLO-INDIAN CORRESPONDENT.] Annotated by Wood at head: ‘From India Feb. 13th. 03’. Beginning ‘Those few of our official financiers at Simla or in the palace overlooking St. James’s Park who are at all sensitive to Press criticism must have felt happy when, in the last Financial Statement, they recorded the line - "the entry under Exchange has become of minor importance."’ Ninety-three lines of text. FOUR: Headed ‘INDIA’S SEABORNE TRADE: / BALANCED ONLY BY DEADWEIGHTS.’ Annotated at head by Wood: ‘From India Jan 15. 06’. Begins: ‘Only within the last fortnight have come to hand detailed returns of India’s trade with the outside world during the first six months of its current financial year - April 1 to September 30.’ Eighty-one lines in small print. FIVE: Headed ‘Reprinted from "INDIA," August 16, 1901. / INDIAN LOANS GUARANTEE. / AN EMERGENT ILLUSTRATION. / (BY AN ANGLO-INDIAN.)’ Beginning ‘The miscarriage of the proposed Indian sterling loan of £3,000,000 last month must have recalled attention to the often pressed, always postponed demand for a British Treasury guarantee in support of the public debt of India.’ Sixty-five lines of small print.
