COLLECTOR, TRICHINOPOLY TO BOARD OF REVENUE:
23.8.1823
(TNSA: BRP: Vol.959 Pro.28.8.1823 pp.7456-57 Nos.35-36)

1. Information having at length been obtained on the
   subject of your letter of the 25th July 1822, I do myself the
   honor to submit the result. The annexed statement drawn up in
   correspondence with that which accompanied your letter, will
   show the number of native schools and colleges in this district,
   and the number of scholars male as well as female Hindoos of all
   castes, and Mussulmans, who are educated in them.
2. The scholars generally continue in the schools from the
   age of 7 to 15 and the average yearly expense of education is
   about 7 pagodas. There are no schools or colleges in this district
   for the support of which my public funds are appropriated, and
   in institutions for teaching Astronomy—Theology or any other
   science.
3. In the talook of Jyalore alone, and no other, there are 7
   schools, which were formerly endowed by some Native
   Government with between 44 and 47 Cawnies of land for the
   maintenance of the teachers.
