CRIMINAL COURTS OF SINDH. 155 



niceties of English law that we have in the 

 administration of justice in India, the better 

 for the people of the country. Already has a 

 taste for the employment of Englisli lawyers 

 displayed itself in Sindh, and an attorney of 

 the supreme court of Bombay, whom I met at 

 Suldvur, was receiving a hundred rupees a 

 day for coming up there on the business of his 

 clients, and he extended his travels up to Ja- 

 cobabad. Truly he must have made a pretty 

 profitable job out of a pleasant journey. Thus 

 much for civil justice in Sindh ; I now come to 

 the criminal courts of that province,
