Sir James Callender

Sir: I have been commissioned by the surviv- ing grandchildren to write a study of the life and work of General Sir James Callender. I should be most grateful if any of your readers can give me information, particularly regarding the period in Madras, and, later, in Norwich.

Any documents which can be lent will be acknowledged and carefully returned.
