I am only conscious of being incorrect in my statements in two instances : 
In Vol. I. page 65, 1 observe tbat Barrackpore originally belonged to the Commander 
in Chief J which is not the fact. It was the country-house of the Governor General^ Sir 
John Macpherson, and continued so under Lord Cornwallis ; but Sir John Shore gave it 
up to the Commander in Chief, receiving instead of it £500. a year to hire a residence 
for himself. Marquis Wellesley took back Barrackpore, and gave the £500. a year to the 
Commander in Chief. 
Same Vol. p. 402 — The females of Tippoo's family have not been prevented from 
going to their husbands, but have continued at Vellore, in preference to completing a 
connection with individuals whom the fate of war has reduced to poverty and insigni- 
ficance. ^ 
In Vol. II. are also the following errors which alFect the sense. 
Page 70, line 10, the words the situation of, ought to have been omitted. 
95, — 26, die, ought to be dine. 
389, — 1, not, ought to be scarcely. 
In Vol. III. page 144, line 1, Indus ought to be Ganges. 
By a mistake which I discovered too late to rectify, the drawing of Boodh, mentioned 
in page 97^ was not sent to the engravers. I have however, on the whole, given many 
more plates than were promised in my proposals. 
In Vol. III. page 81, Mr. Salt says that, " a plan is given of the Cave of Calam 
Negus but it could not be found among his papers, and has, therefore, necessarily been 
omitted. 
In page 186 he says that, " the letter of Constantius to Aizana is given in the Appen- 
dix but his sudden departure prevented him from preparing it, and I have therefore 
been obliged to leave it out but as the reference is given to the original, it may be 
consulted by any one who wishes it.
