W. Drew and Egbert Kennett, and the German Dr. Graull, and Bishop Caldwell, the author of the Comparative Grammar of the Dravidian languages, and his son Robert Caldwell (a layman) who, judging from his two papers in the Indian Antiquary (1872), had he lived, would further have added the charm of excellent verse to translating from a language which he intensely admired, as Horace Hayman Wilson and Milman have done in their translations from San- skrit. The Rev. Dr. Pope, of Oxford, whose books ...have been referred to, is the most eminent living scholar; and among Frenchmen there is M. Vinson. Of late years the missionaries of Ceylon, and the Americans have done good work, especially Dr. Winslow in his Dictionary. The pioneers, however, were from Tranquebar: Ziegenbalg, Pliitschau, Schultze, Sartorius, into whose labours others have entered, and the French mission at Pondicherry, which also began before we did, and has continued. While many of the Civil Servants of Govern- ment have accomplished themselves colloquially and in the current written office language, I find only the names of a few who have had time or inclination to study high Tamil.
