Outram arrived looking remarkably well... [The Highlanders] caused an immense sensation marching through the town in their kilts. The Persians think they are our great warriors... their force amounted to eight regiments of infantry, 18 guns and four or five thousand irregular horse... They [the Persians] evacuated their camp before our arrival... finding we did not follow them came back to make a night attack on us in their entrenched camp... our Artillery blazed at them with grape and cannister... the Persians fled in confusion... we might march through their country with moderate force...'), General Jacob ('...detested by nearly everyone in camp... he is doing everything he can to embroil us with the Persians and the tribes around... a wretched stick, pig headed as a mule... it is a wretched patched up peace, we gain nothing...'), visit from a Persian Colonel ('...looks as if he had just been figged out in Paris... The Persians seem really anxious to cultivate friendship with us...'), news of mutual friends ('...what a 1000 pities all our fellows are marrying, it hampers a Regiment in every way...'), complaints of the Bombay postal system ('...a disgrace to any Christian country, a foul blot upon the 19th century...'), reports of mutinies in India ('...most exaggerated...'), and withdrawal (...'I suppose I shall be the last to embark from here...'); (ii) one letter from aboard the Falkland giving a description of the Seychelle Islands ('...every species of tropical fruit...The roads are lined with roses, myrtles & oleander... the whole island almost is in a state of nature... the root of the manioc which grows like a weed makes excellent white bread... people are too lazy... no money is ever spent on improvements... the style of living is very different... I don't think they even have tiffin or dinner, breakfast seems to be the meal... turkey, ham, curries, fish, salads, ducks stewed in olives... with claret... fancy eating all this at 10 in the morning...'); (iii) eight letters from Zanzibar as British Consul, describing being greeted by the Sultan on arrival ('...he gave a capital dinner in the European style but only sherbet to drink... the English Consul is the only person here the Sultan calls on...'), hospitality ('...the French Consul... has a French cook... would have done credit to the Café de Paris... The American Consul... can't speak a word of French... only language in which he can make himself understood is the Sowahili or negro language... I laughed when I heard them salute each other with 'Jambo Monsieur'...'), scenery and abundant produce ('...like a fine park... huge mango trees, groves of oranges etc...'), arrival of slaves ('...they all wear a wooden ticket round the neck...') and slave ships ('...they come to try to bully the Sultan into consenting to a slave trade, but they find it no go... they pretend it is not a slave trade that the negroes are only 'engaged' to serve for a term of years and go willingly...'), cholera ('...raging here... carried off thousands of people...'), threat of attack from Muscat ('...there will most likely be a good deal of fighting... There are 25000 wild Africans here & a firing & yelling is kept up all day... & kill 2 or 3 people daily by accident...'), the arrival of Burton and Speke ('...Speke has done much more than Burton, he left Burton after surveying the Tanganika Lake which is about 400 miles long and went alone 25 days journey North where he discovered Lake Nianza... unknown to any...'), his low opinion of Burton ('...Speke is a right good jolly resolute follow, Burton is not fit to hold a candle to him... Speke works, Burton lies on his back all day & picks other people's brains...'), arrival of explorer Albrecht Roscher from the interior ('...Burton is very jealous of him...') and his discovery of Lake Nyassa ('...the first white man who has ever done so...

Speke is going with 50 armed men...'), French designs on the colony ('...all very savage altho' outwardly polite... they want to get rid of the Sultan...'), the quashing of the rebellion of the El Harth Arabs ('...the Sultan's brother who was backed up by the French... The rebel tribe has suffered severely... the English are in high favour here now...'), his own legacy ('...I have lately emancipated 3700 slaves here...

As Bushire's only Magistrate and Superintendent of Police, on the arrival of Sir James Outram, commander of the British forces, Rigby was elevated to Assistant Civil Commissioner and Military Commandant. His services were indispensable as the only officer who could speak Persian. Rigby's account covers the battle of Bushire, the British attack on Brazjun, and the battle of Khushab, the largest battle of the war. During his next posting as British Consul in Zanzibar, against a vividly portrayed background of life on the island, he speaks of his great successes in fighting the slave trade, the quashing of the Burghash rebellion, describes assisting several explorers and reveals his personal thoughts on the rivalry between Burton and Speke (see Lot 89).These letters were retained in the papers of Christopher Palmer Rigby, extracts from which were published in his daughter's memoir, General Rigby, Zanzibar and the Slave Trade, published in 1935.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
