Art. XXII.—Abstract of a Sanskrit Inscription, accompanied by a Decipherment of the Original

Abstract

The two facsimile copies from which the following inscription is edited were obtained, some years ago, from Colonel Dawes. This gentleman has had the goodness to inform me that the stone containing it “was found in a very old temple, which was filled with images of different kinds, situated in the village of Lakhamundul, in the Sirmoor District. It is on the right bank of the river Jumna, and only a few miles from the spot where that river leaves the Himalaya mountains. The slab was in good preservation; two feet by one and a half; and of good durable stone.”
