It reads as following: "I am arrive by passenger train Ahmedpur station and my belly is too much swelling with jackfruit. I am therefore went to privy. Just I doing the nuisance that guard making whistle blow for train to go off and I am running with 'lotah' in one hand and 'dhoti' in the next when I am fall over and expose all my shocking to man and female women on plateform.

I am therefore pray your honour to make big fine on that guard for public sake. Otherwise I am making big report! to papers."  Quite right! Make that chap pay.
