Excerpt from Original Papers Relative to Tanjore: Containing All the Letters Which Passed, and the Conferences Which Were Held, Between His Highness the Nabob of Arcot and Lord Pigot, on the Subject of the Restoration of Tanjore

The following collection contains all the letters which passed, and the conferences which were held, between his Highness the Nabob of Arcot and Lord Pigot, on the subject of the restoration of Tanjore, to the displaced Raja. Most of the papers were transmitted by the Nabob, by a special messenger in a French ship, which left Pondicherry in the end of July last; and the remainder consist of the material part of Lord Pigot's dispattch to the East-India Company, by the same vessel.

To render the subject more intelligible to the reader, the papers are connected by a narrative and illustrated with notes. An Introduction is prefixed, explaining the right of the Nabob to Tanjore; and Observations are annexed to the whole, which, it is hoped, contain a Complete Refutation of such arguments, as are advanced by the adherents of Lord Pigot, and the authors of the unjust and impolitic orders, for the restoration of Tanjore. Nothing, is short, has been omitted, that was thought conductive to the throwing light on a subject, which must come under public discussion, on account of its own importance, and the flagrant injustice of the East-India Company's servants.
