Excerpt from Notes and Queries, Vol. 3: A Medium of Intercommunication for Literary Men, General Readers, Etc. January December, 1917

The value of this correspondence lies in the fact that it presents a Vivid picture of the life led by anglo-indians in Bengal in the seventeenth century, and it is possible to obtain from the letters for a decade of that century an intimate knowledge of the members of the little English communities, their rivalries a-nd animosities, their mode of living, and their endeavours to shake the pagoda tree.
