to secure this line of chan-
-nel on a permenent bed, 3
descents of masonry with a fall
of 6 feet each will be necessary
- the leading one as usual being
connected with a Rajbuha super-
-passage, [should such be neces-, struck through]
[-sary;, struck through] this however may be doubt-
-ful, as the channel of no. 6 Main
Aqueduct Rajbuha directed upon
the Hatrass line of irrigation takes
its departure from the Mulhosi
Bridge, from the very work in
fact, of which the Mulhosi Escape
head forms a component part.

The proposed line of escape
channel enters the Seyngoor
under the village of Chouri, and
in its passage [passes across, struck through] intersects a
good deal of irregular ground
and cross drainage, which ought
in my opinion to be passed with-
-out any attempt at taking
advantage of the facilities which
they apparently offer for reducing
the length of the excavated channel.
The first of these lines of cross
drainage occurs at 1 1/2 mile from
the canal on the approach of
the escape channel to the village
of Kutmoo; it is a wide hollow
with its bed, level [?, struck through] with that
of the canal, and is connected
with the Seyngoor, to which it
passes in the [usual, struck through] tortuous
course that ^usually characterizes all
nullas of this sort. The second
lies within a distance of a mile
from the Seyngoor, and between
the road from [Puhpoona?] and
Etawah and that river; at this
point the direct course of the
escape traverses a whole series
of twists of a line of nulla, the
bed
