Book Description

Excerpt from The Raja of Sarawak, 1876, Vol. 2: An Account of Sir James Brooke, Given Chiefly Through Letters and Journals We must turn now to the malicious tongues here alluded to, and trace the origin of an attack that, with an acrimony hardly credible, was from this time made on the Raj a. It has been already shown that his relations with Mr. Henry Wise were occasionally uneasy. Mr. Templer's dis trust was early aroused, but the Raj a, by nature unsuspicious, and feeling under obligations to Mr. Wise for exertions in his behalf, continued to bear with him, and heard unmoved that, while outwardly loud in his praise, he was stating privately that his opinion of him had entirely changed. Something, however, that touched Brooke more nearly than personal abuse could ever do at length occurred.
