This is my ideal of a good Mango. Dr. Bonavia sent it to me from Lucknow, under 

 the name of " Tikari," but it was an inferior variety. The fruit iced on a hot day is 

 past all description. It is more like a splendid Mangosteen for flavour, without the 

 objectionable " cotton." It is common in Tirhoot, Maldah, and now in Gwalior.
