George, ??? Madras. De nombreux objets y ???taient expos???s, notamment des palanquins, des uniformes, des photos et des lettres ???crites par Robert Clive lorsqu'il ???tait ??? Madras et ??? Fort. David. David. Un registre manuscrit particulier, appel??? "Register No: Register No: 1 ???tait le registre des mariages de l'???glise St. Mary's ??? Fort.

Robert Clive et comment sa vie s'est trouv???e inextricablement m???l???e ??? la sienne pendant les 21 ann???es suivantes. Elle repr???sentait la vie de la classe moyenne du milieu du XVIIIe si???cle, aspirant ??? devenir la classe sup???rieure, tant en Angleterre que dans la communaut??? indienne britannique naissante transplant???e.
