inscriptions in the hassan district

PEEFACE.
The illustrations are by Namassivayam Pillai of my office, but the half
tones of the Halebid temple were produced by Wiele and Klein of Madras.
I regret that one side of the western face has not come out well. The Belur
temple is from a photograph by Colonel Dixon in about 1865. Of the views
of the Kedaresvara temple, the first is from one taken either by the Rev. D.
Sanderson or by Mr. Butcher, and the second from one by H. H. the late
Maharajah of Mysore.
No praise is needed for the excellent printing of the Basel Mission Press,
but I fear this book has become more bulky than was expected, from preserving
wide margins with an eye to appearance. For it will be seen how often
the line in the Kannada text has been exceeded by just one letter or two letters.
Bangalore, November 1901.
