Dear Anthony,
What an honour to meet, albeit in the cyberworld, the son of the man who 
published Sott Uloi. This was a very popular newspaper (I didn't know it was a 
weekly),indeed it was read almost religiously by my grandfather. My mother 
recalls buying him copies of it and he being absolutely disapointed if she 
couldn't buy him one. It was the main source of information for the villages of 
Goa, those who weren't tutored in Portuguese or English but who could read 
nonetheless in Konkani.

Although I myself don't know where you could find copies of it, (I wish my 
mother had saved some), there is a man in Margao who has possibly the largest 
collection of Konkani literature. I don't know his name but I believe he is 
located in the complex which we now call sokol bazaar, just off the Margao 
praca. Perhaps he might be able to help you. 

If you would like to share some information about your father on this forum or 
in private to me, I would really appreciate it. My email is:

Best,
selma
