FOOTNOTES:
[59] Punjaub means, literally, five rivers.
[60] "Mad as a hatter," is a favourite term of comparison.
[61] The chiefs take care to provide for this. Colonel Ford, a British officer in Runjeet's service, had three villages given him for pay, out of which he was allowed to make the most. This was the usual practice; but the people are now growing stronger.
[62] The disposition of Eastern states, like the character of froward children, may be tested by these trifling humours in their behaviour.
[63] For further information, I refer the reader to Dow's "History of India."
[64] N.B.—Arbitrary rule, in his vocabulary, is explained to mean, simply, any monarchy or empire.
[65] The author has made this discovery too late, and the next sentence seals his fate.
[66] "Two Years and a Half in the American Navy," vol. ii. p. 244.
[67] An idiot is revered by the Hindoo, as a Heaven-afflicted sufferer.
[68] A fort on modern principles was soon after built in cantonments, and quarters provided for a British regiment.
