| Note | During his stay in India Edward made a large collection of receipted tradesmen’s accounts and a perusal of these gives a number of clues to his character and habits. He was evidently much interested in music and played the violin a good deal, taking lesson from one, D. Barretto. To judge by the amount of wines and spirits which he bought he must have been either extremely hospitable or intemperate. From a number of tailor’s bills some items may be quoted to give an idea of the resplendent uniform worn by the officer of the period. |
