Meerut, December 29th 1836.

My dear Caine,

I am fearful that my humble testimony may not avail you much, or tend as I could wish, towards the attainment of that promotion, which you are naturally desirous to obtain, and that I sincerely hope you may. But it is due to state, the very favorable opinion I entertain of your merits, and distinguished conduct at the siege of Bhurtpore with the former I am so intimately acquainted, that I can speak with confidence, having had so long an opportunity of closely observing Lieut. W. Caine 304 Buffs King's Depot.
