The whole excursion occupied just three weeks, of which a little more 
than a week was spent in travelling from Calcutta to Tinnevelly and return- 
ing from Tinnevelly to Calcutta. 
The writer is glad to end this brief attempt to give an account of the 
tour, which was at best but a hurried rush across the district, by express- 
ing his and Mr. Hooper’s obligations to Messrs. T. P. Peake and F. L. 
Brigstocke, the former the principal Forest Officer of the District, the latter 
the Sub-Divisional Officer at Sermadevi and also to the Forest Range Officers, 
who accompanied us in their respective ranges and did all in their power to 
make the trip comfortable.
