PREFACE.
12. An undertaking of this magnitude cannot lay claim to any-
thing like perfection as regards either completeness or correctness.
But the writer conceives, that a publication of the kind is a desider-
atum in Malabar, and that this attempt at supplying it will be found
serviceable to the cause of education in that province. Should it
one day be superseded by a work approaching nearer to the standard
he has had in view, he hopes that he will be found to have at least
furnished a stock of valuable materials, that will under all circum-
stances render to his successors a not unwelcome assistance in their
toilsome task, in the same way that he in his has received aid from
the accumulated labours of his predecessors.
