In 1687 , Sir Josiah Child , the Chairman of the Company , succeeded in persuading King James II to issue a Royal Charter creating the Corporation of Madras to administer this new city . Persuasion must have been necessary for , until then , such an institution had not been created anywhere outside Britain and the King would have been reluctant to associate with an experiment happening so far away . But Sir Josiah did succeed and the Charter was issued on December 30 , 1687 .

Sometime last week I reserved a carrel in the general library of the University for my studying purposes this year ( or this semester at least ) . I tried to get a carrel on the fifth floor as that is where most of the religion folks have carrels , but the one I requested was already booked . I was going to settle for one with a lesser view , but the helpful woman at the circulation desk scanned the list of available carrels and suggested that a particular one on the seventh floor might be more to my liking . So I went and checked it out .

A:
What may be a plausible fact about me ?
