Sm, I have the honour to submit proposals for the .revision settlement of t thirty-six villages of the Tasgaon T<iluka ofyour collectorate. The Tliluka now formed consists for the most part of villages which were formerly held J:i"'hir0 or Inam and which have, from time to time in the last forty years, laps to the British Government. Sixteen villages, which once belonged to the< Soni and 'l'asgaon J :lghirs and eight villages, which were· transferred from t Athni 'l':iluka of the Belgaum ColleCtorate, were originally settled in 1852-: 'l'he settlement was reported on in 1855-55 and was sanctioned by GovernmE letter No. 2228 of 185.7 •. The twelve ~i'?blak, of the old Tlisgnon Jaghir, in maining villages were settled from time 8 t' - t t . 1~5i'·"~nmuoli· formerly of the Vah'll Talokn Ime as th ey Iapse d o G overnmen , e1g ht in J862-6i.
