They say the General is terribly hurt, and it was thought\u003cbr\u003ebetter to bring him and the other fellow who was mixed up in it down in\u003cbr\u003edoolies. I heard Captain Harvey say in the orderly-room that they have\u003cbr\u003earranged relays of bearers every five miles all the way down. He is a\u003cbr\u003egood fellow is the General, and we should all miss him. He is not one of\u003cbr\u003ethe sort who has everything comfortable himself and don't care a rap how\u003cbr\u003ethe soldiers get on: he sees to the comfort of everyone and spends his\u003cbr\u003emoney freely, too. He don't seem to care what he lays out in making the\u003cbr\u003equarters of the married men comfortable, and in getting any amount of\u003cbr\u003eice for the hospital, and extra punkawallahs in the barrack rooms during\u003cbr\u003ethe hot season. He goes out and sees to everything himself. Why, on the\u003cbr\u003emarch I have known him, when all the doolies were full, give up his own\u003cbr\u003ehorse to a man who had fallen out. He has had bad luck too; lost his\u003cbr\u003ewife years ago by cholera, and he has got no one to care for but his\u003cbr\u003egirl. She was only a few months old when her mother died. Of course she\u003cbr\u003ewas sent off to England, and has been there ever since. He must be a\u003cbr\u003erich man, besides his pay and allowances; but it aint every rich man who\u003cbr\u003espends his money as he does. There won't be a dry eye in the cantonment\u003cbr\u003eif he goes under.\"","brand":"SAP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47079366328560,"sku":"2940013253308","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013253308_p0.jpg?v=1763578974","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013253308","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
