In a letter dated 22nd June, 1873, Mr. Heelis says, “ The 
monsoon came in this year some 10 days before its usual 
time, a very unusual circumstance, as in the six previous 
years I have never known it to vary more than 2 days 
before or after the 1st of June. This year it burst on the ^ 
23rd of May, as far as I could determine, but so mildly 
that for some weeks I doubted its being really the monsoon. 
Since this date we have not had a single day without rain.’'
