There was no conversation between Harry and Sufder on the way back to the hotel; Harry saying that he would tell the news when Soyera joined them, otherwise he would have to go through it twice.

They rode slowly through the streets, and Soyera arrived a few minutes after them.
"Now," Harry said, "we will go up to my room and talk the matter over.
"Mr.Malet has been kind enough to give such a favourable report of me that I am appointed lieutenant to the 3rd Regiment of Native Cavalry, and shall be employed as assistant to the resident at Poona, should there be fresh disturbances there." "That is good fortune, indeed," Sufder said.
"Wonderfully good fortune! and I owe it all, in the first place to Soyera, and in the next to yourself.

You see, I have gained greatly by taking your advice, and remaining in the Deccan until fit for military service.

Had she declared who I was when she took me down to Bombay, before, there is no saying what might have become of me.
"And now, the first thing to do is for me to go out and order a uniform.

When I return I will draw up, in Mahratti and English, a full account of the manner in which I was saved, by Soyera and you, from being murdered; and how I have been brought up." Harry had learned, at the Governor's, the name and address of an official at the Judge's Court who would get his statements copied out, in proper form and writing; and when he had taken them down from the lips of Sufder and Soyera, he saw this gentleman, who promised that the documents should be ready by the next day.
Having thus put his business in train, Harry went to call upon Mrs.
Sankey.
