* My Bodo and Dhimal vocabularies will be found in the Journal as well as 

 the Himalayan series. I take this occasion to intimate my now conviction that 

 the Bodo, Dhim&l and Kocch tribes belong to the Tibetan and Himalayan stock 

 rather than to the Tamilian ; that is, with reference to India, to the more recent 

 race of Tartar immigrants, not to the more ancient and more altered.
