Narrative
Author of:
Barr Kumarakulasinghe, A (1911) A Hand Book of Tamil Language and
Grammar. Wesleyan Mission Press
Reference and acknowledgement as an interpreter is made to to A. Barr-
Kumarakulasinghe in Seligmann and Seligmann, The Veddas, Cambridge
University Press, 1911
pg x Muhandiram Kumarakulasinghe
pg. 336 Mr. A. Barr Kumarakulasinghe tells me that there are temples
to this Godess at Jaffna, but that there are none in Batticoloa
though possibly there may be some in the neighbourhood.
pg. 337 The stone piliyar has been frankly adopted from the Tamils
though Mr. Kumarakulasinghe pointed out that no scared Tamil stone
was so rough; further, according to the same informant Tamils do not
dance around either pilliyar or kudaram.
ABK was also an exceptinally capable Tennis player and had won many
tournaments at district level. He was also extremely strong and was
reputed to be able to lower an axe from his outstretched arm to his
nose using only his wrist muscles.
