About this record
- Content
Letter, marked private, from Lord Northbrook (Thomas George Baring, 2nd Baron Northbrook, Viceroy of India) discussing the progress of the season's crops and hopes that Rajpootana [Rajasthan] will not need to use any of the Government's supplies this year.
The letter goes on to discuss whether a vacancy will be created by Colonel Hutchinson going on furlough, for which Pelly would like Colonel Carnell to be appointed, but for which Lord Northbrook feels Captain Bradford, who is due to return to India in February, would have a better claim.
