To which two masonry descents
each with a drop of 6 1/2 feet would
be required. The leading descent which
will, I imagine, be built near the
village of Futtipoor will have
the superpassage channel of the
main left Rajbuha attached to it
- the second fall will be established
near the village of Mootazabad
near the crest of the high land
on its descent into the valley of
the river. A width of water way
equal to 3 feet ought to be given
to the bridges which cross the escape.
The channel has been excavated
on a width of 50 feet and a bed
slope of 1.25 per mile. The soil is
of a tenacious quality, and as such
is very superior to that ^with which the
upper escape was a connection.
The head of this line of
escape forms a component part
of an extensive series of works
connected with the Moonda Khera
Bridge, its axis is separated
from that of the bridge by a
distance of 434 1/4 feet; it lies on the
left bank and is joined to the
bridge itself by a line of ghats
or steps, which meet the face of
the bridge in an ogee curve;
similar ghats and works of pro-
-tection to the right and opposite
side of the canal, are also built
in correspondence with those on
the left.
