228 Inscription in the old character on the [March, 



to Junagarh to take fresh copies of the inscriptions, as well as plans 

 and drawings of any ruins there may be in the neighbourhood. 



Meanwhile I proceed to lay before the Society the whole text of Gir- 

 nar such as I am now able to make it out from the Rev. Dr. Wilson's 

 copy, which is so fair that it cannot require correction in more than a few 

 incomplete and doubtful passages ; and many of these even are rectified 

 by the collateral text so opportunely discovered in Cuttack ; which 

 Mr. Kittoe's recent deputation to survey the coal mines there has 

 given him an opportunity of re-examining from beginning to end.
