Description
Excerpt from On the Heights of Himalay
The narrative here presented is a true one in the main. Most of the personages are real, and if among my readers there should be any who have lived in the time and place where the principal scenes are laid, they will not fail to recognize their identity and in part the history of their lives. One of them, now verging toward the sunset of his career, still ranks among the foremost violinists of Europe; others are no less known to fame; but lest there should be roused among the worthy and high stationed, slumber ing memories of suffering, and perchance of regret, the actual names of those who played the leading parts in my story are for the present withheld.
