Eight copies of the Mahratta dictionary burned in the fire at Serampore that occurred on March 11, 1812.  

Like many Serampore imprints, the Mahratta dictionary is a rare book.  Of institutions reporting their library holdings, only the School of Oriental and African Studies at the University of London, the British Library, and the Carey Center appear to own a copy.
