Excerpt from The Life and Correspondence of Charles, Lord Metcalfe, Vol. 2 of 2In the autumn of 1828 the friends and correspondents of Charles Metcalfe - both those who wrote to him publicly and privately on grave affairs of state, and those who addressed him only in the language of personal affection -were disquieted and alarmed by a suspension of those communications from Hyderabad which had before been received with such unbroken regularity. They could not account for his long silence. Some there were who thought that they had offended him, and wrote warm-hearted letters to ask what they had done to incur his displeasure. But after a while there came tidings to Calcutta that sickness had fallen upon the Hyderabad Resident. His wontedly strong health had yielded at last to a distressing malady; and in the midst of the physical sufferings he had endured, he had been unable to write to his friends.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
