Booth-Tucker. Sadhu and Saint

1930

Frederick Booth-Tucker was one of the choicest spirits of that elect band of men and women who became the early helpers of the Founder of the Salvation Army. [...] His father was in the Bengal Civil Service member of ' a family famous alike for courage and capacity ' to use the words of Kaye the distinguished Indian historic ; a family that had won high and honouable place by generations of service in the outer marches of the Empire. [...] First came the butler then the valet and the cook the man who brought the water the ' grass cut ' the groom and his entourage the punka-wallahs who pulled the big fans which were supposed to cool the torrid fir the gardener and his men and the scavenger. [...] In his will he gave a bequest to the British and Foreign Bible Society for the distribution of the Scriptures with the condition that the words of the book-marker must be printed in each copy. [...] The social conditions of Hindu life still appalled all who knew the real lot of the women under it ; filo systerrtatic licentiousness of the priests and their acolytes and the degrading fate of the young women called to temple service aroused horror and disgust.
