ReplyDeleteI wrote it as Indore, and struggled with 26A for a long time.
19 - There is still time for New Orleans to finally report the first tragedy (3,3) - {NO}{T} {YE}{T} 'first' on double duty?
ReplyDeleteI think "the" yields "ye" although its not mentioned as "the old".So first is on single duty referring to the T in tragedy.
Corner for tree?

10. Survey.
...a stake, tree, or rock marking the intersection of property lines...
@Sandhya, me too.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to get started with Gridman from tomorrow.
ReplyDelete'The first' can mean 'The old'
ReplyDelete@Bhavan(08:44): Me too :P

ReplyDeleteWhere does 'DE' for 24A come from?
ReplyDelete'DE'is supposed to be from French,although it should strictly be 'of the French'.

I believe,in India, abetment to suicide is a punishable offence? If so, the clues can amount to such a crime, as they frustrate and beat any logic.
ReplyDeleteOne has to resist suicidal tendencies.!~!
