PLATE VI 



DRAVIDTAN PEITIES IN THE MAKING 



The couple seated are dead. The woman drowned herself when her husband was 

 dying. Hearing of her act of devotion, he died very i.appy. This occurred in 1912, 

 but already the names of these dead people are spoken only in whispers, and they are 

 thought to have great powers. It is probable that within another generation the woman 

 will become a Perantalu.
