MAHOMMED

The Great ArabianTownsend s later life was uneventful. In 1898 he sold his share in The Spectator to Mr. St. Loe Strachey, gave up his house in which he entertained a circle of friends every Monday in Harley Street, and settled at the Manor House, Little Bookham, Surrey, where he died on Saturday, October 21st, 1911. He continued almost to the end to send in occasional and much valued contributions to The Spectator. He exempli fied to the end his ideal for the journalist of a suppressed and unobtrusive influence. His first wife had died during his first spell of work in India. The great success of The Friend of India was clouded by the death of his second wife in 1859, and he married, for the third time, in 1861, Ellen Frances, daughter of John Snell, of Hendon.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
