Excerpt from Memoir of the Life and Correspondence of John Lord Teignmouth, Vol. 2 But I have a more melancholy tale to send you, comprised in the accompanying Letter from Barlow, of the 8th of February from Calcutta. You will see with affliction the assassinations Of that monster, Vizier Ali; to which, Cherry, Captain Conway, a Mr. Evans, and young Graham, have fallen victims. I pity Cherry, and Mrs. Cherry, from my soul. Your nephew, you see, is safe, and does not appear even to have been in danger. When I reflect upon the repeated warnings which I received at Lucknow of the designs of Vizier Ali against my person - the opportunities which he had of effecting them before his deposition - those which he had afterwards, for I was three times in his presence almost unattended, and once particularly at Benares on my return I see more reason than ever to be grateful to Pro vidence for my preservation, which my own pre cautions could never have effected. We are all well and going, on the 4th, to spend some days with Mr. Wilberforce at Battersea. Shew the enclosed to George, but do not make it public. I thank God that we have lost no relations.
