Written in a neat & rather small hand. Brainerd in the Benares letter reports on his brief service as resident tutor to the sons of the Siamese Minister to Japan after which Brainerd decided to study Sanscrit. He had arrived in Benares a couple of months prior to the letter to pursue that course of study and reports on his impression of Benares and its inhabitants. Among his observations: "The women wear most startling colors, in often shrieking combinations." The later letter speaks of his involvement in the discovery of the "Bones of Buddha" and admonishes his aunt to never again publish in America any private communication that he sends her until he gives her permission since it almost proved quite embarrassing. He credits a Mr. Foucher for identifying the probable site and gives himself credit for recognizing the soundness of Foucher's reasoning and for tackling the actual excavation. Brainerd reports on the various steps in his studies, culminating in a Ph.D. from Harvard and his appointment to a post by the Govt.of India and of his desires to secure an appointment at Stanford and buy some land for orange growing in Texas if only he had some capital. He asks his aunt to ask someone whether they would be willing to purchase, at $3 apiece, a quantity of ladies belts made of Benares gold brocade by one of his friends. 150.00
