are at last beginning to awake to the value of his early- 

 reports." 



Jameson had the satisfaction before he died of seeing his 

 lifelong labours crowned with success, and tea forroing 

 one of the staple commodities cultivated on the lower 

 Himalaya ; the many plantations affording occupation to 

 thousands of the peasantry, and prosperity introduced to 

 what were previously waste and almost uninhabited 

 regions. In acknowledgment of his valuable services, the 

 Viceroy conferred on Jameson the distinction of Com- 

 panion of the Indian Empire. 



On the 31st December 1875, Mr Jameson retired from 

 Saharunpore to a small tea garden at Deyrah Doon, which 

 he had purchased from Government, and there he ended 

 his useful life on 18th March 1882. His widow resides at 

 Deyrah Doon, and two sons who survive are in the Staff 

 Corps of the Indian Army.
