On the Cawnpoor Terminal
Line, the power of regulating the
canal supply during the dry
weather is, I think, by means
of the above escapes in every way
efficient: during the rains, how-
-ever, this will be greatly aided
by the Rajbuha heads which
are in almost all cases append-
-ages to bridges; the disadvantage
under which the Kukwan Escape
labors, will only be felt during
extraordinary floods, and as I
have before said in such cases,
the outlets at Dubowli, which
equal in the aggregate, 46 feet
in width of waterway, will
it is to be hoped do all the
duty that is required from them.

C. The Escapes on the
Etawah Terminal Line

As in the case of the
sister branch to Cawnpoor, the
works under this section include
all the outlets for regulating
the canal supply lying between
the head of Nanoon and the
terminal escape, which as an
integral portion of the works
attached to the Lockage into the
Sumna River is described under
the Head of the Terminal Works:
the escape in question is situ-
-ated at the 170th mile, and is sim-
-ilar in design, as it is adapted
to similar purposes, [to, struck through] with that at
Dubowli.

The Etawah Terminal
line or branch which runs to
the Sumna, is bounded on one
side

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.
