TO MY BROTHER OFFICERS OF THE OUDH COMMISSION

I BEG LEAVE

TO INSCRIBE THIS LITTLE BOOK

WITH A PROFOUND SENSE OF ITS MANY DEFICIENCIES

BUT IN THE HOPE THAT

HOWEVER WIDELY SOME OF THEM MAY DISSENT FROM

NOT A FEW OF THE OPINIONS I HAVE VENTURED TO EXPRESS

THEY WILL AT LEAST BELIEVE

THAT THESE ARE INSPIRED BY A SINCERE LOVE

OF THE PROVINCE AND THE PEOPLE

WHOSE WELFARE WE HAVE

ALL ALIKE AT HEART.
