	Summary Remarks	Letter from Thomas Parry to Monsieur Marceilly, at Pondicherry. Mentions pleasure in informing you that I have prevailed upon Mr Balfour to allow 34 Pagodas per leager for the arrack instead of 30 Pagodas, at which price he has purchased from others. This will make a considerable difference in your favour. As the speculation must still be a losing one to you, I shall not make any charge for the use of my godowns.
