Major-General Sir Edward Lugard, K.C.B. - from a photograph by Beard, 1858. Sir Edward Lugard served in the Afghanistan campaign as Brigade-Major of the Fourth Brigade; in the Sutlej campaign as Assistant Adjutant-General of the First Division...and throughout the Punjaub war as Adjutant-General of the Queen's troops...In 1846 he was appointed to the general staff of India as Assistant Adjutant-General of the Queen's forces, and held this appointment until 1854, when he proceeded to Bombay as Deputy Adjutant-General of the Queen's troops in that Presidency, and was made an Aide-de-Camp to the Queen...upon his return from Persia...[he] was appointed Adjutant-General of her Majesty's forces in India, and as Brigadier-General commanded the Second Division at the capture of Lucknow, and the Azimgurh Field Force in subsequent operations against the rebels. After a distinguished service of twenty-six years in India, Sir Edward Lugard was compelled by severe indisposition to quit the country and return to England, when her Majesty was pleased to promote him to the rank of Major-General. This promotion removes him from the high appointment he held in India, and for a time places him out of employ'. From "Illustrated London News", 1858
