Praising an article Rawlinson has written on the topic of the Afghan crisis, thanking him for the way he has portrayed Lytton's relalations with the Ameer of Cabul, and for rescuing "public opinion from erroneous conclusions on a question supremely important to India, which has been much obscured by party prejudice and passion," and summarizing the current situation in Afghanistan.
