A Lost Collection of Indian Sketches

Abstract

IN the Geographical Journal for March 1922, it is stated (p. 219) that the Indian sketches made by me could not be found. As these are numerous, quite 160, made between 1852 and 1858, some details regarding them, their value as sketches, where and how they were made, may be of interest, and may possibly assist the authorities at Scotland Yard to trace them; even the discovery of one sketch might do so. It will also show fellows of the Royal Geographical Society and others why I have so persistently directed attention to the loss.
