Art. IX.—Report on some of the Rights, Privileges, and Usages of the Hill Population in Meywar

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  14 March 2011

Extract

This question appears to have been first seriously agitated in 1826, in consequence of a reference from the Acting Political Agent in Meywar, Capt. Sutherland, to Sir C. Metcalfe, regarding certain Grasya chiefs of the Hill principalities, nominally independent, but from whom allegiance was claimed by the Oodeypore Government.
