vi. PREFACE. 



of my military career in India, I had op- 

 portunities of meeting with many adven- 

 tures ; and although a long period has 

 elapsed since those days, a vivid recollec- 

 tion remains, of the campaigning and the 

 sporting, that together, made up the 

 pleasantest part of my life.
