Holy Places of Bhaktivinod Thakur

From Bhaktivinoda's autobiography:

"After returning to the house [in Calcutta ] I went to Surabhikunja. We also performed a lot of sankeertan there. In Krishna Nagar there were many societies and I began to lecture [to them]. Monroe Saheb, Gupta Saheb, Reverends Walace and Butler all heard me lecture. After the rains Mahendra Mama became seriously ill in Dinajpur.

***

"Commisioner Saheb came to Krishna Nagar and advised me to work a little longer. I gave him my thanks, but I had no desire to continue working, and thus, on the of October 189$ I retired, and moving all my things to the house at Sri Surabhikunja I went there [to live]. In that year there was an extensive flood and the water rose close to the street of Svarupaganja. Upon proceeding to Sri Surabhikunja I stayed there a month. I purchased 16,000 bricks, and used them to construct the boundary wall of the Kunja. For the entire month of October the river was swollen and I could not go to Sri
Mayapur and so I went to the house in Calcutta [instead].
