“ Adam's Peak, north end of large basin, about 41⁄2 miles down. 4982.8 Giant's glen, about 5 miles down 4296.5 Tent mydan, about 51⁄2 miles 4001 Bamboos begin hereabouts Large nullah, bottom of ghaut 3408.9 Seegoor 3393.6 North direction from Ootacamund. It is much to be regretted that my friend Dr. Benza did not find his way down the new ghaut, for (beauty of scenery apart) the features of the country are most extraordinary, and well worthy the attention of one so capable of delighting both the Scientific and general reader. ”
