Letter from Jung Bahadur to Brian Houghton Hodgson written in English by James Kenyon with accompanying letter from James Kenyon to Brian Houghton Hodgson. Jang Bahadur acknowledges Hodgson's letter of August 30, 1865. He writes about the state of affairs in Nepal with fairly detailed explanation of changes and developments that Jung Bahadur has introduced into Nepal. He describes his services to the British Government in the Mutiny, war incidents and his services during and after the Mutiny including rebels' encroachment and disturbing activities in Nepal's Tarai and their taming by Jung's Nepali forces. He expresses his grievance about the reduction from 19 to 17 guns salute by the British Indian authorities, which he interpreted as lower than his status and just equal to a British officer in command and gives reference to 19 gun salute he was being given by the British Government as a plenipotentiary ambassador of an independent country and Prime Minister and Commander in Chief of Nepal. He writes of his intention to send a petition to the Queen of England though he finds satisfaction with the honour of the Grand Cross of the Bath from Her Majesty for his services, but dissatisfaction with the behaviour of the Viceroy and other officials of rank in India. He writes of the death of Nana Sahib. James Kenyon's letter to Hodgson's send greetings from Gajraj Thapa who sends his regards to Hodgson and his wife and from other Nepali officers. Also accompanying envelope. Jang Bahadur's letter, handwritten, 22 sides, dated 15 March 1866. Kenyon's letter, handwritten, 2 sides, dated 15 March 1866
