IN THE MALAY PENINSULA.

I believe stands alone among the published dialects in having* a 

 series of numerals extending- beyond four^ has a distinctly Peg-uan 

 system of numeration and does not agree either with modern 

 Cambojan or with the old Cambojan of Gamier, though it does 

 agree with some of the dialects of the Mekong valley and southern 

 Siam which doubtless point back to a still more archaic form of 

 Cambojan. I subjoin the numerals in question so that any ong 

 may make the comparison for himself: for those in the last 

 column I am indebted to the Hon'ble D. F. A. Hervey.
