Description
The writer of the letters herein set forth was Brev.-Major O. H. S. G. Anson, H.M. 9th Lancers. They were written to his wife, who was at Kussowlee. At the commencement of the Mutiny he was in command of a squadron of that regiment, and, during subsequent operations, he was at intervals in command of the regiment itself. When the Mutiny broke out he had already seen some twenty years' service in India, and had fought at the battle of Punniar, and at Sobraon, in the Sutlej campaign, and at Goojerat and Chilianwallah in 1849.
