In the rainy season the country between Andepannie and Potalum is all full of water, 
so that the peninsula of Calpenteen becomes an island ; and it is impossible to cross 
between the two places on account of the mud ; in consequence of which the letters 
and passengers going from Columbo to Manaar, or coming from Manaar to Columbo, 
must be carried over in a boat from Pomparipo to Calpenteen ; and then proceed by 
the following road to get into the usual road at Andapani ; and on from that to Columbo*
