may be no necessity for the
construction of further permanent
works for the relief of the remain-
-ing 3.42 feet, to which the current
will in all probability adapt itself.

The Pandoo River in this
part of its course has all the ob-
-jections that the Rinde had, and
which in the case of the 3 escapes
above described, led to my preferring
the Eesun as a receptacle for our
waste water; having already
thrown so much water into the
channel of the Eesun, however,
I was not inclined to load it
with a further supply, and as
the Pandoo was more conveniently
situated with regard to the works,
at the particular distance at
which an escape had to be built,
I preferred taking advantage of its
channel even under the [disad-, struck through] obstacles
[-vantages, struck through] which have been above
explained, to pouring an addition-

into the Eesun. The Eesun which
runs at a distance of 6 miles from
the canal on the line between
[Rouns?] and Kukwan is, however,
admirably adapted for escape

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.
