Preface
I DESIRE to acknowledge my obligations to Mr. W. B. Heycock, 1.0.8., Collector of Burdwan, and to Captain Mackworth, 1.M.&, Civil Surgeon of Burdwan, for the assistance they have given me in the preparation of this volume. I am indebted to the former for having the proofs read and corrected in his office and to the latter for the greater part of the information contained in the Chapter on Public Health. The volume owes much to Mr. W. B. Oldham's pamphlet on the Historical and Ethnical Aspects of the Burdwan District, which is a mine of valuable and interesting information.
