text: To Ndrak-eru. About 11 miles. Mailang asked me for a School. It is a reasonable request, as it would serve four villages - Mailang, Pyangsa, Lotsu and Tyopsu, all close together. They want to be taught in Lhota and in Assamese, as they trade a good deal with the plains. I can find a teacher, I think, if I can get the funds.
