Note. Full Bench Ruling Chulban Mahton v. Tilakdhari Singh,

 that abwabs are not recoverable, when it is not proved that they have 

 been paid or payable before the time of the permanent settlement. 

 Patwaris 1 " n^g" was included in the claim, but the Court made no 

 attempt to distinguish it from the other abwabs. A. P.

District Jtidge of Shahabad, 

 To 



THE COLLECTOR OF SHAHABAD. 



DATED ARRAH, the i$thjune 1886. 

 SIR, 



I HAVE the honor to ask whether any order was ever promul- 

 gated for this District under sections 18, 19, and 20 of Regulation XII 

 of 1817, relative to the remuneration of pativaris. 



2. If any such order exists, please favour me with a copy of it, or a 

 reference by which I may trace it out. 



3. If no such order exists, I think that one is much needed, as a 

 consideration of the Full Bengal Ruling cited below will show : 



Indian Law Report XI, Calcutta, page 175. 



Patwaris 1 " neg" was claimed along with numerous " cesses " and 

 abwabs. All of these were disallowed as being illegal. No distinction 

 was drawn in the judgment between patwaris" 1 " #^" and other 

 "cesses;" nor was the legality of neg discussed with reference to- 

 Regulation XII of 1817 though attention was drawn to the Regu- 

 lation in argument.
