p1ets Ii fncfd1n< and narrowly escap-
81 ending In deepest disgrace. Born
IN Worcestershire, the section OF
England made famous by Its sauce,
he was educated at Westminster
School and decided upon q literary ca
reer. In 1850 he WAS sent to Bengal
in the capacity OF a writer, or what
wouM now be known as q press agent.
for the East India Company. His task
was to manufacture public sentiment
In favor of the corporation which en-
ployed him and in this he was so uc-
cessful that in 1872 he became presi-
dent OF the Supreme Council Of Gail
cutta. The Nabob of Bengal had been
deprived OF all real power by the East
India Company, and Hastings aided
in the project to place the country
under wen more direct control of the
company.
Extraordinary was dis
played by Hastings in what was term
ed by his enemies the "spoliation"
OF the Mahrattas, the Nizam of the
Deccan, the Hyder All of Mysere and
other comic per- monarchs. To pro-
cure needful money it was alleged that
Hastings used methods not even per.
missible in the Characterization and
civilization of the heather in his treat
ment Of the rulers Of Benares and
Dude. A motion for his recall was
passed by the English HOUSE of Com
mons, and in 1884 Pitts bill establish
ing the board of control was passed
and Hastings resigned his post as In
dia's first governoregeneral.
He returned to England in 1875, and
in the following yea faced the crisis
Of his life. He was impeached by
Burke, charged with the receiving OF
brides, maladministration, and acts od
injustice and oppression toward the
native rulers and people Of India. His
trial vas among h most celebrated
in English annals, Burke, Fox and
Sheridan laundering against him and
calling for his conviction. The trial
dragged along until 1875, when Hast
ings vas formally acquitted, but not
until he had spent his entire fortune
In his defense.
The East India Company was appre-
~ciatfve and settled upon Hastings an
annuity of $50, 900 a year, and in addi-
ton loaned him the sum of $3.50, 0OO
without interest. He died in 1918 and
the Calcutta monume emit will probably
be completed in time to be dedicated
on the centennial anniversary of his
death.
