139. We find from Table XII that "Kollam 1086, Dhanus" begins on Thursday, 15 December 1910, and ends (the number of days in Dhanus being 30) on Friday, 13 January 1911. Now between 20 Dhanus and 30 Dhanus the difference is 10, and so we deduct 10 from 13 January 1911 and get 3 January 1911 as the equivalent of "Kollam 1086, Dhanus 20". To find the day of the week, we deduct 10 from 14 (next higher multiple of 7) *plus* 6, that is from 20, and we get 10, which is equivalent to 3 Tuesday.
