Excerpt from A Life of the Earl of Mayo, Vol. 1: Fourth Viceroy of India Member of Council during Lord Mayo's Viceroyalty, has kindly written the Legislative chapter for me, and enhanced the favour by permitting me to print it in his own words. To the Honourable Sir John Strachey, of the Bengal Civil Service, I owe some interesting materials; indeed, a paper written by him shortly after Lord Mayo's death first suggested the idea of this work. The earlier chapters have been written from docu ments supplied by Lord Mayo's family; and to them I would express my obligations for much valuable advice.
