Book Description
Excerpt from Proceedings of the Baroda Commission, Appointed to Inquire Into the Charges Against H. Malharrow Gaekwar of Baroda of Instigating an Attempt to Poison the British Residents, 1875 These entries are in the handwriting of Damodhar Punt, directing that these amounts should be paid. The other item of Rs. -1 was realised by the sale of coins. That had been entered under date two days before the previous item. Now if these items be added together we get the ag gregate amount paid to the jewellers. No such payments were made in the ways so given; but the entries will show that this total was in point of fact 3 to the jeweller Hemchund. It Will also be noticed by the Commissioners that the order directing these de tails to be paid is dated previous. We have an account on the 9th, but it was the 8th when the order for payment was dated. Hemchund, the jeweller, will of course be able in his evidence - which will be important to show that it was intended these purchases of diamonds should be kept secret. He was ordered to tear out a portion of his books in order to conceal the sales. I now come to another piece of evidence which, I think, materially affects His Highness personally. It was his habit twice a week every Monday and Thursday - to visit the Resident. The attempt to poison was made on Monday, the 9th November, and His Highness visited Colonel Phayre as usual. Colonel Phayre was still suifering when the Gaekwar visited him, but had not heard from Dr. Seward the result of his analysis. He received His Highness as usual, and was very much struck in the course of their conversation at His Highness describing to him the very symptoms under which he was then suffering. The Gaekwar said there was a great deal of sickness about, and he said that he himself was suffering in very much the same way, Colonel Phayre did not say anything to His Highness at the time. Perhaps he had not then any suspicion, or at any rate any definite idea, that he was being poisoned. If Damodhur Punt speaks the truth, His Highness perfectly well knew at that time what had been done, because he picked up the Punt on his way and had some conversation with him. It will strike the Commissioners, also, that such an attempt as this was a fact which would soon get wind in the town. It could not remain long hid. It is curious, therefore, that it was not until the following Thursday when he paid his formal visit to the Resident that His Highness alluded to the rumour. On the occasion of that visit the Gaekwar was accompanied by his then Dewan, Mr. Dadabhoy Now roj se. It was a formal action, and a Durbar yad was sent stating that His Highness had learned that some bad man had attempted to poison Colonel Phayre; and that he would give every assistance to' discover and punish him. The only com ment I make upon that letter is that it is a curious circum stance coming so late. I think I have now gone through the main points in the evidence whichi propose tolay before the Commissioners. I do not at present propose to do more than make this brief recapitulation. After the witnesses have been heard and have been subjected to the cross-examination of my learned friend I think I shall be allowed with the sanction of your Lordship the Presi dent to comment upon the evidence, or if witnesses be called for the defence, to reply on the whole case. I intend, therefore, now to occupy no more time but to at once call witnesses. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
