Emily Eden (1797 - 1869) was an English poet, artist and novelist who gave humorous pictures of English life in the early 19th century. In her youth, she and her sister Fanny travelled to India, where her brother George Eden, 1st Earl of Auckland was in residence there as Governor-General from 1835 to 1842.

She wrote accounts of her time in India 'From Portraits of the Princess and People's of India'.

Annund Mussih- a converted Hindu who had been ordained & was a travelling preacher in the Upper Provinces. "Mr. Y. brought rather an interesting individual to my tent this morning, a Christianised Indian ; he has been a strict Christian for nearly twenty-three years, and last year the Bishop ordained him.

He was a Brahmin of the highest class, and is very learned man... He keeps a school now, which is attended by about 40 children, but he does not think that he was made any real converts".
