Extensive archive of approx 70 documents: manuscript, typescript and printed reports, many running to several pages, most foolscap approx 32 x 21.5 cms; 98 letters; newspaper extracts (including a single issue of The Tribune published in Lahore May 19, 1947); two maps; and 50 black and white photographs; preserved in an archival box, (the letters in two archival folders), in very good condition. A remarkable and extensive archive which records the activities of a young Englishman, Thomas Wilkinson Burdon (1918-1988) who joined the Indian Police as a trainee in early 1941 and traces his progression through to the rank of Officiating Superintendent of Police, in original correspondence and official documents, contracts, weekly and specific police incident reports, photographs and maps. His voyage to India was a hazardous one when U-boat activity in the Atlantic Ocean and surface raider activity in the Indian Ocean was high. The papers cover his various postings and transfers across the Punjab including Phillaur, Gurdaspur, Lahore, Sargodha, Montgomery and Campbellpur/Attock: an area now-split between the Indian and Pakistani Punjab provinces. Initially the focus of the policing activities was little changed from what they had been for decades -- the administration of justice through the suppression of petty crime, the investigation of arson, rape and murder, and the control of dacoit gangs roaming across the Punjab. As the War wore on, grassroots policing changed with an increasing number of armed deserters filtering back to the Punjab from the Burmese front and a related greater firepower being used by dacoit gangs. The end of the War saw increasing agitation for independence and ever-worsening civil unrest and communal violence. For the police this was accompanied by a major change in their role as they became increasingly embroiled in trying to prevent and suppress mob violence, and to restore order where whole villages and their inhabitants were destroyed. An important feature of this holding is the wealth of correspondence it contains from Barbara Josephine Burdon (1924-2013), Thomas? wife (and a few from Thomas) to her mother in England, giving a lively and real-time view of expat life in the Punjab in the years leading up to partition in 1947 and their perilous escape. Barbara joined Thomas in India at the end of 1945 and her letters cover all aspects of life and its challenges for a young Englishwoman living in remote and unfamiliar locations, including grave illness and the birth of their first son, Jonathan. A later candid letter in April 1947 attests to the growing political crisis: ?We have known many horrors during the war years but the murderous lust of these people is I fear unparalleled. What happens you see is that communal rioting starts in the towns over some possibly trivial incident and spreads to the other big towns as tension caused there by the reports of the original incident grows. Then you get crowd clashes between H[indus] and S[ikhs] on one side and M[uslim]s on the other, stabbing incidents (this is v. common) arson of shops and houses (It is mainly the shopkeeper class so it is not uncommon to find a Hindi majority town in a Muslim majority district ? Okara in Montogomery?Multan City in Multan) old people, women and children are knived across and left to die or thrown alive into the flames?: ? And from Thomas: ?Life here is trying. It is the dreadful insecurity which makes things worse than they normally would be. Of course, the disturbances themselves are shocking, although I missed the days when murder was commonplace. However I have now the job of cleaning up the mess and it is a mess. Our worst police station, Chauntra (about 50 miles SE) has about 600 murders to be investigated as well as looting, arson, and forcible conversion on an unbelievable scale?Barbara, of course, gets the worst job ? waiting for me to reappear. Still both Jonathan [their firstborn son] and she are fit and we will probably be home this year. I hope that I shall be able to get out too?The real trouble is that our Government in Britain does not understand the problem, and by fixing the date [for Partition] have precipitated matters.? The latter part of the collection includes official documents and correspondence relating to the payment of salaries and a family pension with the Superior Services (India) Family Pension fund 1948-77: an uncommon insight into colonial economics and administration. A rare holding of original material relating to the Punjab at the time leading up to Partition. A full listing of the documents is available on request, together with a full listing and written survey of Barbara's letters.…
