1iv Preface.

2publishers' letter, I had despatched to them the

3manuscript and illustrations of " Travels in

4Lad^k, Tartary, and Kashmir."

5For enabling me to do this in the scanty mo-

6ments of leisure which my duties allowed me, I

7have to thank, first, my memory ; secondly, the

8diary of a fellow-traveller ; and lastly, the able

9and interesting works of Bernier, Jacquemont,

10Moorcroffc, Gerard, and Cunningham.

11The proof sheets will be corrected by one of

12the companions of my journeyings, who will be

13in England in time to do so ; and you, my

14readers, will have yawned or laughed over^ been

15bored or amused, by the perusal of my narrative

16long before the publication will meet its, author's

17eyes.
