This book was released on 2018-02-19 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Private Letters of Sir James Brooke, K. C. B., Rajah of Sarawak, Vol. 2 of 3: Narrating the Events of His Life, From Its 1838 to the Present Time The Murdoo people were punished with the loss of their town, and had from fifty to seventy men killed or wounded, which loss arose chiefly from their standing in their stockade, instead of picking us off steadily from the jungle. On our side we had two men killed, and about a dozen wounded, most of them severely. Chads, the first lieutenant of the Harlequin, was cut down by a native, and most seriously hurt, his left hand being nearly severed from his body, and his side laid open for seven or eight inches. I was likewise amongst the wounded, as in charging a stockade I got a spear thrust, which cut my eye-brow in two, a light but very bloody scratch, which has slightly injured my beauty; and at the same time a shot inside my right arm, which rendered me for the time hora-de combat my eye is now well, and my arm so well that you may observe that I write as badly as usual. This redoubted action took place on the 12th of February, 1844. Behold me then a wounded hero, and I must confess that my vanity was flattered by the crew of the Wanderer, who made a request to be allowed to cheer me, when I quitted the brig.

Excerpt: ...t Letter to James Gardner, Esq. p. 30. % Mundy, vol. ii., p. 39. The sultan was imbecile and wicked, "with the head of an idiot and the heart of a pirate." The rajah was an amiable prince, his brother Budrudeen, an able and noble gentleman--they supported the cause of good government, desired to suppress piracy, and to advance commerce, they sought a friendly alliance with the English, and had always in the capital been the protectors of European merchants. With the aid of Sir Edward Belcher, these princes returned to their native city of Brune, and were reinstated in the authority they before possessed, because the people in general, sided with Muda Hassim, and were decidedly opposed to the rule of Pangeran Usop, who had frightened the Sultan into a show of hostility On the other hand, exercising an evil influence over the weak Sultan, was Pangeran Usop (an illegitimate son of the former sovereign or Iang di per Tuan), and connected with him, a piratical party, which not long before had committed an outrage upon British subjects This piratical party was violent, difficult to Mundy, vol. i., pp. 356--357. f Idem, vol. i. pp. 380, 381. % Here is a fair example of Mr. Hume's process of arriving at a conclusion to suit his purpose. A reference to Captain Keppel's work, vol. i., pp. 237, 238, will show that in January, 1841, the English ship "Sultana" had been burned at sea, and her crew plundered, and imprisoned by the Sultan and his Minister Pangeran Usop. Mr. Hume accuses me of having deliberately contemplated restrain, opposed to commerce or good understanding, and an obstacle alike to progress and to improvement. In 1843 the dissensions in the capital were serious, and the reason was, that Pangeran Usop aimed at the...

B., Rajah of Sarawak, Vol. 3 of 3: Narrating the Events of His Life, From 1838 to the Present Time Nothing can be kinder than Mr. Drummond, nothing better than his speeches; nothing weaker than Hume's case, and nothing more decisive than the majority. Mr. Drummond was very right to attack Mr. Wise; the motive cannot be too strongly brought to light, and Mr. Wise should not be allowed secretly to work the strings of his puppets. I quite approve likewise, if you do, of your publishing the letters or anything else. I send you some others; you will see, that they are to my mother, and she treasured them, and I found them when she left the world. What pain would all this have given her for she was sensitive in the extreme. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Your wife must be my friend--it is an obligation entailed on her with marriage. I must beg you to convey to her my regards, with a hope that some day when we part after meeting, I may add remembrancesI have written to Jem, and I keep in mind that if Sydney is not good for his spec, perhaps he will find this better, and that I shall be able to forward his views. This letter goes to-morrow by a 500-ton ship, which has come here on her own account!! My correspondence will not all be finished, and if my mother does not receive a letter by this post, you must send her this to read, with my love. God bless you, and Believe me, ever dear Jack, Your affectionate friend, J. Brooke. No. 37. Mrs. Brooke. Sarawak, October 16, 1842. My Loved Mother, Your letter is the last I have to write of a very long series, and, like a plum, I have kept it to the last, in order that you may have the very latest news. All the news is good--from home very encouraging--from Bengal rather favourable, and here we 'are peaceable and progressing. I do not intend entering on long de tails about Sarawak politics, for I have dwelt largely on them to Tempier, who will let you know all about it; and I shall turn my attention to our more domestic matters. Your two letters, of April and June, reached me together, and there is much in them to reply to--First, that rascally hoax about Johnny, which I have no doubt was a mere sally of some light-headed comrade, who never thought of parents or relatives--however, all is well that ends well, and Emma is not the worse either for grief or joy. I shall be delighted to see the gun and the circle, but the other things I do not care about, and only mentioned, supposing you had plenty of money to spare; and pray let this be your...
