Nobody who has travelled even up and down the line from the colony to Pretoria can fail to see the enormous amount of work that there is to be done and of course away from the line that work is even more urgent." 1 side A4 Bateman's Burwash 6th June The recipient is the Irish poet architectural writer and artist Alys Fane TROTTER née Keatinge 1863-1961 whose husband Alexander Pelham TROTTER 1857-1947 was a major force in electrical engineering in the Cape Colony in southern Africa. For Kipling's friendship with the Trotters from his time at the Cape see Thomas Pinney ed. The Letters of Rudyard Kipling 1990 volume 4 page 393. There is an article about Kipling's involvement with the Trotters by Tanya Barben which includes the paragraph "The Kiplings were quickly absorbed into Cape Town's social scene often through Rhodes's contacts. Alys Fane-Trotter the doyenne of writers about Cape architecture at the time recalled that the 'Kiplings were charming to us and Rudyard would spend the afternoon sitting on our very humble stoep drawing wonderful pictures for the children and telling us first drafts of stories he expected to write". This may be the only surviving letter to Alys. unknown

2023ref. BIBHB0139115492023. Hardcover. New. About The Book: The late Mogul and Pindari era in India although unpleasant to discuss can be aptly described as cruel. Despite the Hindu system's ability to preserve Brahmanical laws during centuries of turmoil the common people who interacted with animals were inevitably demoralized. As a result the general principles of mercy for the masses gave way to mere ritual observances for the privileged few. Furthermore the existing precepts of mercy have been exaggerated in reports. To ensure that it is not forgotten the book has been republished in a modern format that is easy to read. When an act was passed in 1890 to prevent cruelty to animals some people in England were surprised assuming that Orientals were inherently merciful. However those familiar with India understand that cruelty like drunkenness has long been entrenched in the culture of Eastern nations and such insinuations are unfounded. The prevailing view in cultivated Europe regarding the Eastern attitude towards animals is expressed in a sentence by Mr. Lecky who concludes that it is similar to that of all nations under heaven.
