FOOTNOTES
[1] [See Plate II.] for a view of elephant moving timber.
[2] Mr. Sanderson’s long residence in India, and his great experience, naturally entitle him to be regarded as authority on the elephant, notwithstanding some authors do not agree with him on certain points.
[3] In Burmah this would be considered a white elephant.
[4] A rupee equals fifty cents.
[5] A rupee equals two shillings.

Note.—We regret that the material composing this Bibliography has come to us in such an imperfect state, some of the titles being too largely abridged. It is hoped, however, that it may prove useful to some who are desirous to read more on this interesting subject; and, also, it may remain suggestive of more complete work in the future.
