Abstract

FOR the following facts the writer is indebted to the kindness of Herr Emil Metzger, formerly Director of Surveys in the Dutch Government service in Java. His original account, written before September 12, has just appeared in the Globus. The present paper is based upon that, but it contains several small additions and corrections which have been received directly from the author. Most of the geographical details here given are based on the Trigonometrical Survey of the coast of Java, which was carried out under Herr Metzger's immediate direction in 1868–69.
