- Title:
- Letter from Argyll to Mayo
- Scope & Content:
- Argyll and Political Committee of Council unanimously approve Mayo's proposal to create a new central agency for native states of Rajputana and Central India; Sir G Clerk urges there should not be too many local officers as 'young Politicals are apt to interfere vexatiously with the native Princes'; Argyll believes it important 'to keep up the dignity, and to create a feeling of responsibility on the part of, the native Princes'; several Council members doubt suitability Durand for the post believing him 'imperious and harsh' and apt to treat natives 'with contempt and incapable of concealing what he thinks of them'; full Council's reaction to proposal; claims of (Sir) G Campbell (Chief Commissioner of Central Provinces currently on home leave) to Lt-Governorship of Punjab; Napier supports Argyll's view on mode of reduction of native army and considers prejudice against Madras Army unfounded.
