- Scope & Content:
-
Expects Sir William Denison about 25 Jan. Urges the substitution of the Madras Regular troops for the Nagpore Irregulars, because the Madras Army deserves to be treated with some consideration, and the Nagpore Irregulars are unreliable. Sends a memorandum by Lieutenant Colonel Woods, Adjutant General of the Madras Army, on the state of the Madras Native Infantry, with comments. The delay about Amalgamation is most annoying. Hopes that something of a local Army may still be retained, though the Commander in Chief is in favour of complete amalgamation. Has replied to the question about the consolidation of the Staff, the papers have not yet been sent off.
Enclosed: Memorandum showing the strength in Privates of the Native Infantry in India and those out of India. 24 Dec 1860.
