The Story of My Life

1896

For me at this juncture the place had the advantage of being in the midst of the Mahrattas foring the most important ampng the nationalities of my Presidency. [...] During the famine of the previous year I had obtained the necessary sanction to the costruction of a Chord-line connecting the railway from 13ombay towards Calcutta with the railway towards Madras saving a long detour in the conveyance of food grains. [...] I rode up to it from the coast and marvelled at the rocwalls of the natural citadel of Pertabgurh which were typical instances of the frowning precipice and the beetling crag. [...].01 Towards the end of the year I journeyed through the Province of Gooferat to the peninsula of Kattywar with its champaign and its group of mountains rising in the midst and surmounted by fanes. [...] The ratepayers of Bombay elected the members of the Corporation with a fair view to the general interests of a capital city.
