Description  Visited Bankipur in 1876. Was escorted by the Behar Light Horse to Sir R. Temple’s camp. There was a levée “at which all those who had done good work during the famine of 1873-74 were presented.” Was a bit “puzzled as to who the B.L.H. [Behar Light Horse] were, and asked if they were Yeomanry, and when told they were all gentlemen,—indigo planters—some of whom had come over one hundred miles to escort His Royal Highness, he expressed himself much pleased at their loyalty.”
