First sentence: WHILST stationed at Lahore on civil duty, in the end of April, 1870, I very unexpectedly received a note from Mr. Forsyth, Commissioner of the Jalandhar Division of the Panjab, informing me that he was about to start at once for Yarkand, on a friendly visit to the Atalik Ghazi, and that he had applied to Lord Mayo for my services as medical officer to the expedition.
