A pair of George III silver salvers, by John Wakelin and Robert Garrard, London 1794, of oval form with gadroon borders resting on bracket feet, engraved with armorials, the reverses engraved No 5 13=7, and No 6 13=6, 23cm long, 27 oz approximately (2) The arms of Charles, first Marquis Cornwallis, KG (1738-1805). Joining the army at the age of 18 opened General Cornwallis`s distinguished military career. He briefly entered Parliament and served as Constable of the Tower of London. As major-general in the American War of Independence, he was second in command of British forces, yet forced to an ignominious capitulation by the inadequacy of his superior. In India, Cornwallis reformed the civil and military administration and dictated terms to Tippoo Sultan. His appointment as viceroy and commander-in-chief to crush an expected Irish rebellion prevented him taking up the post of governor-general of India in 1797. But in 1805, he was sent back to take command at Calcutta and died the same year at Ghazipore.
