Reading edition

He wrote about my resuming command of a Regiment later:—

“Your untiring zeal, great patience and tact are well known to me. I am not acquainted with any man who has stronger or better claims, or, with your professional abilities, would do it greater justice. I consider that you have great qualifications for such a command, and that you carry with you the respect and goodwill of all, having maintained strict discipline at the same time.—With best wishes, believe me, sincerely yours,

James Travers, Col., “Commanding Central India Horse.

“To Evelyn Wood, Esq., 17th Lancers.”
