Cauvery in spate on 10th Aug 1827

       This happened in August 1827. The  Governor of Madras Henry Sullivan Graeme(Acting)(of Greams Road fame) on a tour of Tanjore district was not able to cross the river due to flooding of its branches. South west monsoon must have been very  active .  Compare with the present situation.
