Elephants and village guns; need to cut jungle near bungalows |

8/7/1926 To Wakching, who also complained of elephants. Shiong also applied for a village gun, which they said Mr Pawsey had promised them. The Compounder also has a desire for a gun and considers it unjust that a contemporary Muharrir should have been given one first. |
