Note: Allahabad, April 18th, 1925
An official statement issued by the United Provinces Government
records the deep regret of the Governor-in-Council at the death of Mr.
G.R.Higginson, Superintendent of Police, which took place at Agra on
March 30th, 1925.
Mr. Higginson had a record of seventeen years' uniformly excellent
service in the Indian Police and was an officer of exceptional energy
and capacity. Though severely handicapped by failing health, he
carried on the duties of Superintendent of Police, Agra, one of the
most difficult charges in these provinces, with cheerful courage and
efficiency, up to within a few weeks of his death.
In the course of his career, Mr. Higginson's name was on numerous
occasions brought to the notice of the Government for specially
distinguished services, while his unselfish devotion to duty, personal
modesty and unfailing good temper won him the affection and respect of
all who were brought in contact with him.
By the death of Mr. Higginson the Government has lost a valuable
servant.
