This was, of course, a great achievement, and Mornington was by no means inclined to minimise its importance, or to put at too low a figure the return that he expected for it. It is clear from his correspondence with Grenville that he thought a dukedom a fitting reward for his services.
1 Add. MSS. 37308 f. 263.
2 George Harris (1746-1829), who in 1815 was raised to the peerage of the United Kingdom as Baron Harris of Seringa- patam and Mysore.
Front an engraving by II '. Ridlcv 1805] FALL OF S...ERINGAPATAM 117 THE EARL OF MORNINGTON to LORD GRENVILLE Fort St. George : May 12, 1799 To you I shall use no disguise, but inform you plainly that the manner in which I have conducted this war has been received with exultation, and even with the most unqualified admiration in India ; and (to talk like Lord Abercorn) you will gain much credit by conferring some high and brilliant honour upon me immediately. The Garter would be much more acceptable to me than any additional title, nor would any title be an object which should not raise me to the same rank which was given to Lord Cornwallis.
