Excerpt from Grant of Rothiemurchus: A Memoir of the Services of Sir John Peter Grant, G. C. M. G., K. C. B., Member of the Supreme Council of India During the Administrations of Lord Dalhousie and Lord Canning; Lieutenant-Governor of Bengal, and Governor of Jamaica
Volume of the National Biography. It seemed, however, to a near relative of the deceased states man, that a memoir on a slightly extended scale might be written to show the events in which he took part, and the political questions which he helped to settle in periods of peace and progress in India, as well as in the troublous and exciting time of the Sepoy Mutiny. And in this view, at the request, and with the sanction of a member of the family, I have prepared a narrative of a service which, in India, extended from 1828 to 1862, and in Jamaica, under the Colonial Office, from 1866 to 1874. The Indian Civil Service, whether entered.
