He was the Commissioner of Sind (British India), current Sindh Pakistan, from 1926 to 1929.

I have got digital copies of two letters signed by Mr Hudson, addressed to my grandfather, dated 1st January 1927 and 1st January 1929.

The third letter I have is from Mr. Godfrey Ferdinando Stratford Collins, dated 3rd January 1940.

Later in WF Hudson became Commissioner in Sindh in 1926 and he relieved Commissioner Jean Luis Rieu. A very brave and courageous officer. He supported local people in British services and asked the commissioner William Henry Lucas to empower local people in government services. Which commissioner accepted his suggestion and wrote to Governor Bombay Presidency.My Grandfather's two brothers were directly inducted in Police Services in 1914 Mounted Cavalry Police.
Mr Hudson was also a settlement officer in Sindh in 1904 .He was a great person and empowered local landlords for better development.
