MY FRIENDS
THE ELECTORS OF CENTRAL SHEFFIELD
Prevented by passing- illness from addressing you, as arranged, upon my return from
the Great Coronation
Durbar
A public or private audience held by a high-ranking British colonial representative (e.g. Viceroy, Governor-General, or member of the British royal family).
at Delhi, it has been suggested that I should re
publish in connected form the following articles recently written for
your information of my latest impressions in Russia and India.
I do so, aware of the intelligent and far-seeing interest
you take in the great Asiatic problem of the near
future, from which the British Empire
may hide its eyes, but will have
inevitably to face.
C. E. HOWARD VINCENT.
