Lawarance to Jawala Sahai
January 14, 1852
Legal Document No 3
(Extract)
On account of certain excesses committed by some European Visitors in
the past year, I intend to appoint some responsible European official at
Srinagar to stay there till the return of the said visitors in order that
he may put a stop to the occurance of such excesses. As the Maharaja is
well acquainted with the good intentions and sociability of Major MacGregor,
I wish he may be allowed to stay at Srinagar till the end of the hot season
to supervise the conduct of European visitors to Kashmir. As this arrangement
is also for the benefit of High Highness, it is hoped that it will be gladly
accepted by High Highness.
