(3) *Messrs. Terry & Co.'s grant.*—The find-spot of this is unknown. In the year A. D. 1896, Prof. Bendall found it with Messrs. Terry & Co. of 29 Glasshouse Street, London, W. It was then being offered for sale. It closely resembles grant No. 1 above. The inscription records that the *Mahārājñī* Pṛthvīśrīkā, after bathing in the Ganges at Benares at the Ādi-Keśavaghaṭṭa in (V) *Saṁvatsara* 1163 (a mistake for 1164), on the occasion of a solar eclipse (A. D. 1107),³ granted the village of Bahuvarā in the Bhaīlavata-*Paṭṭala* (*Pattalā* ?) to the *Pūrohita* Devavara and other Brahmans.⁴
