Excerpt from Orissa, Vol. 2 But while thus labouring to hew a way through the labyrinth of Orissa history under its foreign Governors, I have felt that it would not be fair to hide the conflict of Opinion which exists. Endless antiquarian discussions are intolerable in a historical work, but such a work would be even more disfigured by dishonest conceal ment. The text will therefore set forth the conclusions at which, after considering the whole evidence, I have arrived; but the process of reaching them, and all technical details, I venture to relegate to footnotes.
