522 HAVELOCK the array for the invasion of Afghanistan as staff officer of Sir Willoughby Cotton. He was at the storming of Ghuznee and the occu- pation of Cabool, and wrote a " Narrative of the War in Afghanistan in 1838-'9 " (2 vols. 8vo, London, 1840). He afterward distin- guished himself in Afghanistan, in the Mahratta campaign, and in that against the Sikhs. In 1843 he was appointed Persian interpreter to the commander-in-chief, and brevetted as lieu- tenant colonel, and at the conclusion of the Sutlej campaign was appointed deputy adjutant general at Bombay. In 1849 he went to Eu- rope for his health, and returned to Bombay in 1851, and became in succession brevet colonel, quartermaster general, and adjutant general. In the expedition sent to Persia in 1856, he commanded the troops at the taking of Moham- merah. He returned to Bombay when peace was concluded, and sailed for Calcutta, but was wrecked on the voyage (April, 1857) off the coast of Ceylon. Reaching Calcutta while the sepoy mutiny was at its height, he was at once despatched to Allahabad to take com- mand of a column destined for the relief of Cawnpore, which was then besieged by the Nana Sahib. He left Allahabad in the begin- ning of July with about 1,200 men, and, having been joined by a reenforcement which raised his strength to nearly 2,000, encountered and routed 3,500 mutineers at Futtehpoor, and on the 16th defeated the Nana before Cawnpore. The Nana having fled on the following day, Havelock entered the city, to find that the surviving Europeans had been massacred on the 15th. From Cawnpore Havelock followed the Nana to Bithoor, defeated him, and burned the place. He then pushed on toward Luck- now, where the garrison, under Inglis, was closely beset. Having crossed the Ganges on the 25th, he was opposed at Onao by the ene- my, over whom he gained a brilliant victory (July 29). On the same day he defeated the mutineers again at Busserut-Gunge ; but a few days afterward, finding his force reduced to about 1,300 men, and being encumbered with the sick and wounded, he had to retreat and wait for reinforcements. The enemy imme- diately reoccupied Busserut-Gunge, and Have- lock returned twice and drove them out. Af- ter the third attack (Aug. 12) he recrossed the Ganges to Cawnpore, having now only 1,000 men. Joining Gen. Neill at that place, he marched against the Nana, who had re- entered Bithoor, and routed him, Aug. 16. On Sept. 15 Gen. Outram reached Cawnpore with 1,700 men. His rank was higher than Havelock's, but he relinquished to the latter the chief command; and on the 19th Have- lock, now major general, again set out for Lucknow, Outram accompanying the force as a volunteer. After a series of battles he reach- ed that city on the 25th, and fought his way with a loss of over 500 men into the residency, where Inglis was shut up. Outram now took the command. Under him, seconded by Have- HAVEN lock, the garrison and their relievers had to withstand a siege until the arrival of Sir Colin Campbell enabled them to retire to Cawnpore. The residency was evacuated Nov. 22, but Havelock, whose strength had been broken by sickness and exposure, died of dysentery three days afterward. Previous to his death the commander-in-chief had conferred on Have- lock the "good service pension" of 100 a year. A baronetcy having been conferred on him the day after his death, the title, together with an annuity of 1,000, was given to his eldest son, Henry Marshman Havelock (born Aug. 6, 1830), who had been with his father in Persia, and during the campaign against the sepoys, in which he was twice wounded. An annuity of 1,000 was also granted to his widow, who was a daughter of the missionary Dr. Marshman. See J. C. Marshman's "Me- moirs of Havelock" (2d ed., London, 1870). HAVEJV, Alice Bradley, an American authoress, born in Hudson, N. Y., Sept. 13, 1828, died at Mamaroneck, N. Y., Aug. 23, 1863. Her maiden name was Emily Bradley, and while a school girl she sent, under the pseudonyme of Alice G. Lee, many attractive sketches to the Philadelphia "Saturday Gazette," edited by Joseph 0. Neal. Their correspondence re- sulted in her marriage with Mr. Neal in 1846, and at his request she assumed the name of Alice, and thereafter wrote under the pseu- donyme of Cousin Alice. On his death in 1848 she took the editorial charge of the " Gazette," and conducted it for several years, contributing at the same time poems, sketches, and tales to other periodicals. She published a volume in 1850 entitled " The Gossips of Rivertown, with Sketches in Prose and Verse," but is more generally known by her series of juvenile stories, as "Helen Morton," "Pictures from the Bible," " No such Word as Fail," " Patient Waiting no Loss," "Contentment Better than Wealth," "All's not Gold that Glitters," " Out of Debt out of Danger," "The Coopers," and many others. In 1853 she was married to Mr. Samuel L. Haven. Her biography has been published under the title "Cousin Alice, a Memoir of Alice B. Haven " (New York, 1865).

After teaching some years in Amenia seminary, New York, he entered the itinerant ministry of the Methodist Episcopal church, and was pastor about six years in New York and vicinity. In 1853 he accepted the professorship of Greek and Latin in the uni- versity of Michigan, but left it in 1856 to become editor of " Zion's Herald " in Boston, where he resided till 1863. During this time he was a member of the Massachusetts board of education, and served two terms in the state senate, being specially prominent in the advo- cacy of educational interests. In 1863 he be- came president of the university of Michigan, which during the next six years nearly doubled
