iv PREFACE. 



Terai, and Messrs H. Parker and F. B. Armstrong of Ceylon. 

 Mr. A. G. Cardew of Ootacamund also very kindly sent copious 

 notes, also Mr. C. Wyeth of Tavoy. To this list must be 

 added the name of Mr. J. A. Cave-Browne, of Rangomati, 

 to whom both myself and all subscribers to this work are in- 

 debted for the English Index which was very kindly compiled 

 by him. Mr. H. M. Phipson very kindly placed at my dis- 

 posal such works of reference as he possessed, and for similar 

 obligations I am indebted to Mr. Charles Taylor, to whom, as 

 Superintendent of the Press, is also due the neatness and 

 general out-turn of this work.
