C. B., K. C. M. G., F. R. S., D. C. L., LL. D., M. E The materials from which this memoir of the late Sir Charles Wilson has been compiled, consist principally of his own diaries and note-books, which he always kept in a very thorough manner; of his official reports, printed in Parliamentary Papers, and of other published writings; and, more especially, of his letters to his Wife, in which, when away from home, he recorded everything that he did and saw during his travels. Lady Wilson placed the whole of these letters at my disposal, and I have given a considerable number of extracts from them, as they afford a fuller insight into his actions and his thoughts than any one else could give, and it seemed advisable, as far as possible, to let him speak for himself. Sir C. Wilson's career was a remarkably varied and interesting one. He was fortunate in having been selected, at an early age, to serve on the North American Boundary Commission, as the excellent work which he did in connection with it brought him under the notice of the Foreign Office, and led to further employment later. For many years he served upon the Ordnance Survey, and was probably the only man who has had charge of the work of that Department in Scotland, Ireland, and afterwards in the United Kingdom. In the War Office he was employed twice, first in the Intelligence Branch, the foundation of which owed much to his exertions, and, secondly, as director-general of Military Education. One of the most important periods of his life was the time during which he worked under the Foreign Office; first, as British representative on the Servian Boundary Commission; then as Military consul-general in Anatolia, and as Com missioner in Eastern Rumelia; and lastly under Lord Dufferin in Egypt, where he was selected to fill a very important position in connection with the trial of Arabi Pasha and the other leaders of that military revolt, which led to the British occupation of the country.
