ROUGHING IT IN SOUTHERN INDIA 105 



Passing over these and a few other drawbacks in their 

 ways, I should be well pleased to find myself in their neigh- 

 bourhood once more. 



As far as I am aware, none of these pigmies of Southern 

 India have ever been brought away from their own country 

 to this, to be exhibited as shows to the curious, and I should 

 be very sorry to think of such a fate befalling them.
