1942 Travancore Hundi acknowledgement receipt from Nedumangad to Pudukadai via Mankad S.T & Kalayikavilai Anchal offices.
MANKAD S.T. ... scarcely seen cancel.
Nedumangad 7 Kanni 118 (23/Sept/'42)
MANKAD S.T. 8 Kanni 118 (24 Sept)
Kalayikavilai 8 Kanni 118 (24 Sept)
Puthukada 9 Kanni 118 (25 Sept)
Mankad S.T. Anchal office has erroneously stamped in the Anchal 'office of issue' slot (rectangle box) instead of Nedumangad Anchal office (place name stamp cancellation missed by the Nedumangad anchal master)....hence the place name of 'MANKAD S.T.' pen striked @ Puthukad anchal office.
Transit points @ Kalayikkavilai & Mankad S.T.
Travancore do already have a 'Mankad' village..'Nedumangad". So the South Mangad was changed to Mankad S.T (Mankad South Travancore).
Mankad S.T. was part of Travancore Princely State till Nov:1, 1956.
At present, Mankad is a Village in Munchira Block in Kanniyakumari District of Tamil Nadu State, India.
