627 [=652] (V.1)

Transcription

Status: Complete

town of Ayrwa on the right, and
(as described before) crossing the
Phoora and Ahneea immediately
above their junction with the
Rinde. This branch is the main Wiltshier
line for the ultimate irrigation
of the eastern portion of the
Ghatumpoor [pazgunna ?].
From the aqueduct at A 627
the main Rajbuha would
be carried round the heads of
the Pandoo and keeping on the
right of that river it would
pass the town of Jhewli. From
thence leaving Juchindi on
its right, it would cross the
Pandoo river by aqueduct
and would ultimately form
a junction with the Dabowli
Rajbuha; a main line which
passing through the country
between the Pandoo and Ganges
terminates the Cawnpoor irrigation

The direction with reference
to the towns of Jhewli and
Juchindi, will require to be
fixed by careful and accurate
survey; both my own and
Mr Dodsworth's maps of the
country lying on the right
of the Pandoo, will afford good
ground work for determining
the[bed ?] direction for the Rajbuhas;
the country, however, is much
cut up by drainage the whole
[tending ?] towards the
Rinde.

The line will, I imagine,
cross the Pandoo in the vicinity
of the village of Newri, or not
very

Transcription Conventions

Spelling: Maintain original spelling (including u/v, i/j, and ff). Long "s" should be replaced with a regular "s". Terminal long "i" characters are transcribed as "i" not "j".
Hyphenation: Preserve hyphens (including "=" characters) at the ends of lines.
Capitalization: Maintain original
Punctuation: Add modern periods, but don't add punctuation like commas and apostrophes.
Deletions: Deleted characters and words are tagged with "strike" and then displayed with the line through them.
Symbols: For apothecary and alchemical symbols, use these symbols followed by the meaning of the symbol in brackets: Rx [recipe]; ℈ [scruple]; ʒ [dram]; ʒs [half dram]; ℥ [ounce]; ℥s [half ounce]; ℔ [pound].
For roman numerals following symbols that indicate amount, i.e., j=1, ij=2, iij= 3, v=5, type arabic numeral in brackets following roman numeral: i [1], ii [2], iii [3], v [5].
Line Breaks: Hit return once after each line ends. Two returns indicate a new paragraph, which is usually indentation following the preceding sentence in the original. The times at the end of each entry should get their own paragraph, since the software does not support indentation in the transcriptions.
Illegible text: Indicate illegible readings in single square brackets: [Dr?]
A single newline indicates a line-break in the original document, and will not appear as a break in the text in some views or exports. Two newlines indicate a paragraph, and will appear as a paragraph break in all views.
