To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
. . . You will know how to assist me in carrying that part which I entrust to you into effect by the means you judge best." Some of the governor's political views were still more forcibly conveyed. " There is no man in India more opposed than I am to the damned nonsense of keeping Indian Princes on their thrones within our frontier. . . The old Indians, for whom I confess con- NAPIER'S OPERATIONS IN KHELAT TERRITORY 125 tempt, as a set of old bitches, whose God is mammon, do not see that the in...terest of every Prince within our frontier is to send us to hell." Jacob answered in similarly serio-comic vein : " My dear General, I fear that I shall never make a successful political. I have failed in the present business at the commencement." The Chandia chief and his sirdars had positively refused to emigrate into what they feared would prove a hornet's nest. He added that the Murrees were the only tribe that might be persuaded, and, in fact, that was the measure adopted.
The General replies : " My dear Jacob, send home the Chandias with all sorts of butter : as there are no parsnips in Sind, fair words must do for the present, as the money and parsnips are together." Meanwhile the operations went on leisurely, with a view to hemming in the enemy and forcing him to fight or surrender.
