but this grand total of 2370 bags is according to the
ship's manifest*
ii. On shore we find the following number of bags rice
and flour have been actually landed and for which
we have given receipts to the steamer

Grand total actually
received in the
Customs
2354 bags.
So you will find the steamer has manifested 2370 bags but
actually 2354 bags have been received by us, the remaining
16 bags we do not know what has happened to them. This is
called short and excess and our Office is sending circulars
to ail ports enquiring about their fate. When we will get
"eplies ixXkxxkxidctt from all ports, I think it will take
^several months. '
Some of the consignees are shown in the attached list but
most names of the consignees are not known to us yet, even
*xmi their marks we cannot get because our receipts to the
?nrTr + iS J° r V H rl0US "• Therefore it will noAe possible
for us to give the correct names of the consignees until
the consignees produce proper Delivery Letters or even Bills
of Lading relative to tnese bags. So far m the consignees
have not taken delivery of these bags from us and the JSodf
we^ir ,” 8 it T C ? storas * Jt 18 for fhis reason that
we are unable to give you complete list immediately after
the arrival of the steamer. And for this reason most names of
rpasnn not give * in the attached list ano the
reason is because we are unaware of them as uiey nave not
produced me snipping documents yet. I trust this is
quite clear to you, but if you *4t us^to c^plete tne names
of the consignees we wifi be aoie to do' when the consf™««
produce the shipping documents. ^ consignees
