THE SIEGE OF DELHI. 235 



Rotton, " was universally lamented as a natio7ial 

 calamity. He was not only great, but good as he 

 was great ; a man who feared God, and eschewed 

 evil, and wrought righteousness."^ 



" Who had known him, and not loved him ? " 

 wrote another chaplain, the Rev. J. Cave-Browne. 

 " That heart, gentle as a child's, with all its fire — 

 that manner so courteous, so winning of confidence 

 — that form, manly though spare — all the traces of 

 character which endeared him to all who worked 

 with him and under him, and wdiich ennobled him 

 in the memory of that country which he served, 

 and for which he died."^
