Description
English: Portrait of Clifford Henry Mecham
Mecham (1831-1865) served throughout the defence of the Residency at Lucknow from June to November 1857 with Hodson's Horse, a body of loyal Indian horsemen formed during the rising by Lieutenant William Hodson. Mecham was in the campaign in Oudh in 1858 and appointed adjutant of 2nd Hodson's Horse in August of that year. In October 1858 he was made second in command of the 3rd Regiment of Hodson's Horse and in May the following year appointed their commandant. In April 1863 he was made commandant of the 9th Bengal Cavalry, serving with that unit until September 1864 when he was removed from command. Mecham appears to have been unemployed between September 1864 and September 1865 when he died of hepatitis at Kalka.

Licensing[edit]

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1909, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
