Abstract
THIS, the last volume included in the excellent series of monographs for which we are indebted to the Government of Eastern Bengal and Assam, differs from its predecessors in that it contains less pure ethnography and more of the charming personality of the author, of whom his old friend, Mr. J. D. Anderson, contributes an appreciative memoir. Mr. Sidney Endle worked as a missionary under the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel, and as chaplain to the tea-gardens of Upper Assam, from 1864 to 1907, when, exhausted by long and devoted labour among the people he loved so well, he died in a steamer on the Brahmaputra while on his way to Europe.
