Dated the .. MSL . 1937 
SIR, 
Reference your letter No.172/37, dated the 18th. May 
1937 , I have the honour to say that I understand that there 
is species of Jack known as "Sonekadat" in Burma that may be 
similar to your Malayan !f Chempedah ,T * 
I regret that I cannot supply specimens of this species 
which I understand is found in Mergui and Tavoy Districts 
only, but if you write to the Deputy Director of Agriculture, 
Tenasserim Circle, Moulmein he might be able to procure 
specimens for you. 
The fruits sent to you were smaller than the average of 
the two varieties of Burmese Jack to save transport charges. 
The larger fruits of these specimens ordinarily weigh from 
30 to 40 lbs. each. 
I have the honour to be, 
Sir, 
Your most obedient servant, 
.;
