v1.c24.20

¹ Mahratta MSS. [Revadanda (Rewadunda) is otherwise known as Lower or Portuguese Chaul; Chaul proper, or Upper Chaul, having been captured in 1740. The two are separated by a creek or salt swamp. Revadanda is rich in Portuguese architectural remains, which include the factory or citadel, a cathedral and a hospital. The fortifications, commenced in 1520, were continually added to between that date and 1721. (B.G., vol. vi; I.G. Bom., 1909, ii. 128-9.)]
