I proposed," { Water should be brought } { (1 ms. has instead:) The irrigation should be done } on the basis of one ditch for me, one ditch for you and one ditch for the governor," but they did not agree. Your canal has no workers but its ditch brings water. It brings water for me unchecked. My workforce is inadequate so send me five or { 10 } { (1 ms. has instead:) 60 } able-bodied men. It is urgent.
