About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1888. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XIII. INDIA. HE history of the calamity that befel our Indian Empire in the years 1856 and '57 has been told by abler pens than mine. The news of the rising at Meerut, followed by the massacre at Cawnpore, the first and second sieges of Delhi, the relief of Lucknow, and the Central India campaign, are now records of the past--a grievous story, emblazoned with blood and fire upon the pages of our Colonial history. It is with Sir Hugh Eose's little force, better known iis the "Central India Field Force," that we must now ask the reader to follow us, because attached to it are the 129th Lancers. On landing in Bombay, the miud of Colonel Deals and his officers had been somewhat exercised at the size of the horses placed at their disposal for the mounting of the regiment. It is true, the weight of the men was certainly against them, more especially when the horses, burdened by a heavy numdah, head and heel ropes, forage net, valise, etc., had to carry upon an average twenty stone; and this upon a horse averaging 15 hands 2 inches in height. Game as the Arab horse may be, and undoubtedly is, such material was looked upon with much distrust, always taking into consideration the light weight of the native revolted cavalry and artillery. Since those days, the importation of Australian horses, and the breeding of Whalers, has much improved matters, and our cavalryare now better able to hold their own. The passage of the Betwa has been won by Sir Hugh Rose and his wearied little band of heroes. The battle of Gwalior has forced Tantia Topee to seek refuge in the fortress of Jhansi, and it is before these defences we find the 129th one sultry evening in July on outlying picquet. The regiment has not suffered much, except from sickness. Lessing, Marston, and Co...
