Rudyard Kipling
in Allahabad in the United Provinces.
His writing continued at a frenetic pace and during the following year, he published six collections of
short stories: Soldiers Three, The Story of the Gadsbys, In Black and White, Under the Deodars, The
Phantom Rickshaw, and Wee Willie Winkie, containing a total of 41 stories, some quite long. In addition,
as The Pioneer's special correspondent in western region of Rajputana, he wrote many sketches that
were later collected in Letters of Marque and published in From Sea to Sea and Other Sketches, Letters
of Travel.[4]
In early 1889, The Pioneer relieved Kipling of his charge over a dispute. For his part, Kipling had been
increasingly thinking about the future. He sold the rights to his six volumes of stories for £200 and a
small royalty, and the Plain Tales for £50; in addition, from The Pioneer, he received six-months' salary in
lieu of notice
