These numbers include issues 19.10 (October 1839), 20.1 (January 1840), and 20.4 (April 1840). The initial entry provides an introduction to Ingalls? residence: In the autumn of 1838, Mr. Kincaid being desirous to return to his labors at Ava at the earliest favorable period, his place at Mergui was supplied by Mr. Ingalls, who had been designated as a permanent occupant of that station. Mr. Ingalls arrived at Mergui on the 29th of October, accompanied by three assistants." M. W. C.
