﻿FROM CHUNARGHUR TO YERTNAGOODUM. 65 



The inhabitants 'of thefe hills acknowledge alle- 

 giance to a vaffal of the Burdy Rajah's, who refides 

 at Buddtrry, a village fituated four cofs weft of Ud^ 

 gegoor. His name is Budhooj and be has a Jagheer 

 of twelve villages, in confideration of his bringing to 

 the affiftance of the Burdy Rajah fifty men in time of 

 •warfare. The Karwars are divided into many feSIs, 

 among which the following were named to me, viz. 

 the PaiUbundiesif the Tecrzvars, the Sefahars, and 

 Durkwars. There were no villages, and few inhabi- 

 tants, in that fpace of country to the eaftward, which 

 lay between my track and the river Soane ; but to the 

 weftward, a few villages were faid to be fituated, of 

 which little account was made;, for the inhabitants, 

 who are fond of a roving life, are continually chang- 

 ing the places of their abode. The Bejool river rifes 

 in the diftricts of Purrury and Gundwally. In the 

 former is a large town, bearing the fame name, fitu- 

 ated about twenty-five cofs fouth-weft o^ Udgegoor, 



In the courfe of my inquiries into the ftate of this 

 wild country, my attention was occafionally directed 

 to the language of the mountaineers, which induced 

 me to collecl a fmall fpecimen of it; but as the only 

 method I had of acquiring this, was by pointing to 

 the objecl of which I required the name, the follow- 

 ing were the onlywords whichj after much pains, I 

 could colled :
