OLDHAM: THERMAL SPRINGS OF INDIA. 



146. Tr/i ... Lat. 22° 48' ; Long. 73° 30' ; Elev. ; Temp. 



Near Ruttunpur, on the Mahai or Mhye river. — SyTces, 

 on authority of Cruikshank, Geol. Trans., London, 2nd 

 series, Vol. IV, 427 ; Towa of Giraud, Med. Phys. Soc, 

 Bombay, V, 246 (?) The springs are quite close to one 

 another, so much so that the earthen vessels with their 

 bottoms knocked out, which are placed over each spring 

 to the number of 150 to 200, actually south each other as 

 they lie. The temperature of the jets varies from almost 

 boiling (?) to extreme cold; very cold and very hot jets 

 in some cases immediately adjoining. A rank sulphureous 

 vapour is thrown off. — Official Records. 

 Passing to the south-east, we come to a series of thermal sources in 

 Khandesh, lying at the foot of the Satpura hills. 



147. Khaib Paba ... Lat. 21° 44'; Long. 74° 30'; Elev. ; Temp. abt. 98°. 



In the Achchrani (Akrani) Pargana of the Sultanpur 

 laluqa. — Giraud, Trans. Med. Phys. Soc, Bombay, V, 

 new series, 258 (1859). This is evidently the ' hot spring' 

 marked on the Khandesh topographical survey maps in 

 the position given above. 



.. Lat. 21° 28'; Long. 75° 13' ; Elev. ; Temp. abt. 90°. 



About 2 miles north of the village of Wadla, in the Amba 

 mehal, of the Shirpur taluqa; it is called by the natives 

 Unabdeo, without any addition to distinguish it from that 

 near Arawad. — Official Records. This is the Oonapdeo 

 of Briggs (Sykes, Geol. Trans., series 2, IV, 247) men- 

 tioned above, and the Unapdeo of Schlagintweit. 



. Lat. 21° 18' ; Long. 75° 25' ; Elev. ; Temp. 100°. 



Mr. Pollen says that Nijardeo is situated about a mile and 

 a half to the north of the village of Wirwada, close to 

 a deserted village lying at the foot of the Satpura range, 

 called Magapur. The temperature of the water at noon 

 was 103°. — Official Records. 



. . Lat. ; Long. ; Elev. ; Temp. 85°. 



Nizardew and Sunabdew are situated within a mile or two ' 

 of each other, and about 7 and 8| miles respectively from 

 Unabdew. — J. W. Grant, Acting Collector of Khandesh. 

 This may be the Sunapdeo of Schlagintweit, and Soo- 

 koopdeo of Briggs. The temperature was ascertained by 

 J. Pollen, Assistant Collector of Khandesh, in 1875, and
