36 HOW I KILLED THE TIGER. 



Bombay were amalgamated with the Courts of 

 the Sadr Adalut of the three Presidencies, and 

 the united body was designated the High Court 

 of Judicature.

 progressed.

 governments. The Indian Civil Service and the 

 British Army were both thrown open to com- 

 petition. Patronage gave place to competitive 

 examinations. The India as we know it to-day 

 dates from the suppression of the mutiny.
