Excerpt from Thirty-Five Years in the Punjab: 1858-1893 This book may be properly described as 'notes by the way.' It consists mainly of extracts from letters and diaries written by me as I journeyed through my Indian life. I have tried to make the extracts objective rather than subjective, but they are, nevertheless, to a great extent autobio 2cgraphical. This, it will be seen, from the nature of things, was inevitable. I desire, however, that readers should regard the biography merely as that of a man whose career gives a fairly good idea of the life and progress of a Civil officer in the Punjab, from the year 1858 to 1893. 'the narrative may be found to be of interest by' old Punjabis who remember the whole or'part of the time dealt with, by young men looking forward to service as Civilians in India, and by other persons who care to read about that country.
