1904 Wrapper Six Cash from Trivandrum to Quilon/Punalur. Manuscript numbers, to prevent pilferage..

 1904  Six Cash Wrapper (21:26) Type 11 from Trivandrum (cds..31mm.. Moos type 3.. to Quilon.
Trivandrum (Kar 13 1079)..July 28,1904.
As the addresee is out of station, anchalman tried to deliver 3 times (a delay of 6 days)...hence the Malayalam manuscript (3)... in violet.
Send from Quilon (Kar 19 1079... Aug 3) Punalur (Kar 20 1079... Aug 4).

The manuscript number in Malayalam seen on the wrappers, written in ink, is from the treasury itself by the officials, to take stock of the wrappers sent to different Anchal offices..

This number helps to keep track and prevent pilferage.




Malayalam manuscript (3)... in violet.
