				English
				General description of different kinds of duties collected from Bara, Parsa, Saptari and Mahottari districts of Nepal's Tarai in 1817, including a rough note on land revenues from Butwal, Chitawan, Sarlahi and Morang. It seems that Hodgson was simply trying to estimate the total revenue that the British authorities were collecting each year from these areas of the Nepal Tarai before their return to Nepal, which was agreed at the end of 1816. Paris Bradshaw was in charge of negotiations with Nepal regarding border disputes between Nepal and British India only until he was replaced by Ochterloney at the beginning of 1816. It is difficult to see how revenue could have been collected during 1817 under Bradshaw's authority and there may be an error here. Cross reference for Tarai revenue [vol 07/13 fol.97-104] [vol 13/03 fol.139-178] [vol 14/06-09 fol.76-90] [vol 53/01 fol.1-19] .
