This mass movement was characterised by the participation of both men and women, and by spanning the religious divide between Muslim and Christian Egyptians. The Egyptian Expeditionary Force engaged in mass repression to restore order.

Most of the cases have been enteric fever. When once the move begins I expect I shall be sent home as they will want to get rid of all the superfluous staff officers as soon as possible as there is nothing to do after we get doen to Abu Fatmeh where we shall have to leave the boats...Of course you will know what the movements are long before we do out here...there wass talk in Camp last night that this coming move is only to concentrate our forces at Dongola...old Gladstone has an awful number of lives to answer for...The Essex are a Regiment of savages and undisciplined beyond belief but they always find the best things. They found and got one of the largest crocodiles I have seen and then caught a turtle and have taken all the goose eggs in the country to eat...The mail from Cairo is late again so we have to close the home mail before the other gets in...".rnProvenance: Collection Richard Wilson.

Cover roughly opened and torn at top left, a fragile item with tear and wear, nevertheless a most interesting and fascinating combination of Indian and British adhesives to pay correctly the 6 a. 8 p. rate via France to Great Britain. Cert. BPA (2012).rnNote: On 1st June 1863 the postal rate to the United Kingdom via Marseilles was reduced from 8 annas to 6 annas 8 pies for a letter up to a half ounce. However, until 1867 no 6 a. 8 p. stamps were available. The present cover shows a provisional combination to pay 6 annas with Indian adhesives and 8 annas equal to 1 pence with a British adhesive. In India itself was no clear opinion if this combination was acceptable as can be seen from the contradicting handstamps on front. In Great Britain, however, the different due markings were crossed out and the cover was accepted as fully paid.

    1894 (Feb 15): De La Rue Essay for the proposed Postal Stationery newspaper wrapper issue, showing the Professor von Angeli head-plate of Queen Victoria, for proposed 1 anna value in a composite design hand-painted in reddish-purple on ivory card backing with Crown, Necklace and epaulette picked out in Chinese white, mounted in sunken card dated "FEB 15th 94." in manuscript at top right. Illustrated in the "De La Rue Collection" edited by Frank Walton on page 4206. The Essay, with points at top and at base was rejected in favour of the issued design with indented top and base of frame. An exquisite Proof of great beauty and importance. Unique.

    Ex Collection Desai, Robson Lowe 26 May, 1949, Lot #916

    Note: The Queen Victoria head was from a full length portrait done in 1885 by Professor von Angeli, when India called for new high values De La Rue worked on the von Angeli head as a model. Four fairly crude Essays were prepared in January1894 for Indian Newspaper wrappers followed by this Essay and a ½ anna design in February. The Indian high values followed later in 1895 and a slightly modified design was utilised for the Canadian Jubilee issue in 1897 and, reduced, for Uganda and the first issue of Southern Nigeria.

    Indian Post Offices abroad - Aden 1864 (July 17): Envelope presumably from a French serviceman returning from the second Cochinchina campaign, posted at the Indian P.O. in Aden and directed to Nancy, France, bearing two single adhesives of Napoléon perforated 10 c. bistre (Yvert 21 / Maury 21 / Gi 91), cancelled / tied by small barred rhombus '124' numeral of Aden, matching "ADEN STR POINT" despatch cds on reverse. The franking which pays the French soldier's concessionary rate was not accepted by the postal authorities, regarded as fully unpaid and therefore a framed "INDIA UNPAID" handstamp in black was struck on front. Obverse with French "PAYS ANGL. V. SUEZ MARSEILLE" entry (July 31) cds in red, reverse with Paris-Strasbourg ambulant and NANCY arrival (Aug 1) cds. French '9' (décimes) mark indicated the due which had to be paid by the receiver. Signed Calves; certs. Scheller (2011), Sismondo (2014), RPS (2015).rnNote: Almost exclusively only stamps of Ceylon, Mauritius and Great Britain are known to be cancelled by the '124' numeral of the Indian P.O. in Aden, this is the only known cover with French stamps postmarked in Aden. A spectacular rarity and a most attractive cover for an advanced collection of the postal history of India, Aden, Indochina or France.

I.E.F.D.", with reverse showing "Base Office" cds (Feb 3) and readdressed on arrival with "Purley Oaks Sorting Office / Croydon" cds (March 9) to London. Edge wear to envelope of no significance. Extremely rare - from Lt. General Sir Arthur Arnold Barrett, Commander in Chief, Indian Expedionary Force 'D', the long contents are an astonishingly frank letter with no self Censorship: "we have certainly been fortunate so far, and have managed to get the best of the Turks whenever we have met them. But I fancy we have the toughest part of our job before us yet. The Turks have a large Army and after allowing for the lot who are fighting the Russians in the Caucasus, and for those whoi are said to be on their way to attack Egypt, they might still bring a goodly number against us - and there are crowds of hostile Arabs, very well armed, in the country as well....The only things we really want and can't get are one or two aeroplanes for reconnoitering work. This is a country without roads, and a good part of the desert consists of swamps...the river is the only way of getting about. We hold as far as a place called Karna [Qurna], 40 miles above this, just at the junction of the Tigris and Euphrates, where we have a strong post. A few miles above that the Turks are entrenched and have blocked the channel of the river with sunken barges with guns in position.....I have orders from Gov't not to advance...we also have to guard the oil wells and pipeline of the Anglo-Persian oil company, which lie up to the north east....In a day< or two we have the Viceroy [of India] coming to stay...I suppose we shall have to saty here until the War is over, unless there is a revolution in Turkey...they seem to be under the thumb of the Germans. As for when the big war will end goodness only knows - we shall have to push the Germans very hard before they give in, and there are no signs of that at present...".rnrnNote: The British landed on 3 Nov 1914 at Shatt al Arab in the Persian Gulf and after some resistance took Fao. The objective was to secure the oil refinery at Abadan and if Turkey declared war, to occupy Basra. Lt. Col. Barrett (later General) went on the offensive at Saihan, Mohammerah and Qurna to secure Basra. On 9 April 1915 Barrett was evacuated due to illness and repalced b General Sir John Nixon - who two days later faced a Turksih and Arab offensive.
