Excerpt from A Leader of Light Horse: Life of Hodson of Hodson's Horse
Among the men who fought and bled in their country's service during the ?ood-tide of the Indian Mutiny, few names shone with a steadier and more inspiring lustre than that of William S. R. Hodson, the prince of scouting, officers, the bold and skilful leader of Hodson's Horse. From the middle of May to the close of September 1857 the fame of his achievements rang daily louder in the field force which Barnard led from Karnal to the siege of Delhi.
