December

22 December: Pegu annexed to British India, 1852
Midsummer begins with the commencement of the present month, which is
especially the season of luscious fruits and beautiful flowers. The
trees also rejoice in their leafy pride, the fields luxuriate in the
abundance of their verdure, and animated nature is full of life and
enjoyment.

Ref. Southern Provinces Almanac, 1868
