Preface
Not that the Punjab was without her heroes -though it had not a Neill, the bold saviour of Allahabad and avenger of Cawnpore, nor an Outram, the soul of chivalry, who with Havelock effected the heroic relief of Lucknow -yet it had a John Nicholson, without whom Delhi had not fallen; a John Lawrence, who, in the wisdom of his counsel, his iron will, and energy, proved himself the worthy brother of the martyr of Lucknow, for "through him Delhi fell, and the Punjab, no longer a weakness, became a source of strength;" + it had a Robert Montgomery, in fearless faith wielding the sword of justice at Lahore, and imparting vigour and calm. Confidence on every side-" not inferior.
