The native records are largely available in printed form now. The history of Pegu in the Mon language by the Monk of Aswo', mentioned in Phayre's preface, has long been available to European readers in Father Schmidt's volume giving the Mon text, a transliteration, a translation into German, and critical notes. Mr. Blagden's English trans lation of the German work with supplementary notes is expected soon to be available.
