that the lands, chargeable with the demand, might be
pointed out. This never was, and never could be, done ;
and the demand was finally relinquished in 1836. But in
1835, in reiterating this request, I took occasion to show
to the Government, inviting an examination of the proofs,
that the collection of one lac ( 1 00,000) of Rupees of revenue
in the five Parishes, which had cost the Government nothing,
had cost me 10,000 Rupees ; the greater part of which
sum consisted of the land-revenue balances of the inha-
bitants, which I had made good, from an intimate know-
ledge of their utter inability to pay the demand against
them.
