c12.s3.1
I owe the following revised transcription to Mr. J. F. Fleet, Bombay C. S. The document presents many difficulties, but is interesting as a specimen of a grant by a minister (see p. 115). I give only the first page. It is in Canarese mixed with Sanskrit.

¹ Mr. Fleet reads: ‘Svatti’ as sometimes occurs in early inscriptions. The original is doubtful as the letters of the word are prolonged and thrust aside to make room for the second line.
