284 | AN ACCOUNT OF THE 
17th Station, Chandpir Peak. 
Tris like Bhadraj, Surkanda, Bairat, is one of the stations of the great 
triangulation. It is a lofty mountain being elevated above Sehdranpur 
7948 feet. The object observed was the centre of a stone temple. ‘The 
distance and the relative situation of this building, and the pillar on which 
the circle was placed, are shewn in the figure. With the data these con- 
tained, and the distances, the following reductions are calculated.

From every station but Bairdt this point was observed, but from that 
place it could not be clearly seen, being in a great measure hid by another 
building, which is shewn in the plan, Cfig. 7). The distance between their 
centre measured on a perpendicular to the direction of the Bairdt station 
is 5:3 feet. ‘This subtends at the distance of 98,212 feet an angle 10:8, and 
this is the value of the reduction in Azimuth. It is + the true centre 
being ‘to the right of the other as seen from Bairdt.
