*Page 101, n. 1.*—*Contra* Mr. Krishna Sastri—Introduction to *S.I.I.*, vol. iii, part iv, pp. 14–17. The Madras Museum Plates are referred by Mr. Sastri to ‘the uncle and immediate predecessor of Rājarāja I’ (*S.I.I.*, vol. iii, p. 267). There is nothing in the record that goes against our view that these plates may be assigned to Rājēndra I. In fact, the mention of *adikārikaḷ Śoḷa mūvēnda-vēḷar-emberumān* in l. 14 supports our view, as this *Śoḷamūvēndavēḷār* was the commander of Rājēndra’s army (*S.I.I.*, vol. iii, part iv, introd. p. 17).
