Summary Remarks  Letter from Thomas Parry to E Campbell, at Chidambaram. Mentions that the timber which was ordered from Trincomalee has been disposed of at the tannery. When the cutter comes this way in March I shall desire Mr Gibbons to send you a dozen logs. Nothing can be done regarding the sugar mills. It is not owing to Mr Fortin, who is anxious to have them. The government will not at present allow any copper to be issued from their stores in consequence of some demand for a supply from the Rajah of Mysore. The matter referred to the Board of Trade. When it is decided upon Mr Taylor thinks he can let me have the quantity you require. It will not be possible to make arrangements for shipping your indigo until the Indiamen arrive here. Colvins have not done anything yet, but I expect to settle with Captain Wardlow of the Asia, his cousin Mr Balfour informed me of the spare tonnage and money to remit. The Board of Trade has recommended Government detain all homeward bound ships and employ them to bring rice till September next.
