∗ Now an obscure village in the Perambalur taluq of the Trichinopoly district, but in the 17th and 18th centuries one of the most important posts on the main road from Madras to Trichinopoly. (Orme's *Indostan*, 4th ed., i, 172.) The fort is at Ranjangudi, 3 m. n. of the village W. My account of this contest is based upon Martin's *Memoire* (see my trans. in *Modern Review*, Feb. 1924) and *Madras Factory Records*, vol. 27, "Letters from our Brahmans Wardapa from Shivaji Raja's camp, 27 June, and Nellor Ramana 16th July, 1677." Jedhe S. has misread *Bairagi* for Lodi.
