To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Lord Auckland (1836-1841) For twelve months after the departure of Bentinck, Sir Charles Metcalfe acted as the Governor- General of India. Had he been made permanent, he would have followed the footsteps of his political Guru — the Marquess of Wellesley. He condemned the policy of Sir George Barlow. "There is a loud cry that we are in danger from extended dominion. For my part, I can contemplate universal dominion in India without much fear. '* But the authorities were displeased with him, it i...s alleged, for his liberating the Indian Press. The Peel Ministry of 1831-1853 chose Mr. Monstuart Elphinstone to succeed him but he declined the offer because ''the chance of great events occurring is not considerable" and he had no visible scope for his ambition. According to Lord EUenborough, the state of his health prevented him from accepting that position. Therefore, Peel's choice fell upon Lord Heytesbury but the Melbourne Ministry did not like him because of his Pro-Russian proclivit- ies225 and his disapproval of the policy then in vogue to annex Indian States on every possible occasion.
