* The Goshoyns carry on a very extensive trade. It is calculated that the number 
residing in these 500 dwellings amount to 10,000 persons, and on the arrival of their 
cheylahs from foreign parts in pilgrimage, 35,000 have been counted at the time of 
the distribution of the bundharra. 
f At the celebration of marriages 3000 of this class of people have been counted. 
N.B. Exclusive of the above residents, the number of pilgrims at all times in the 
city, maybe taken at ten thousand. On certain Hindoo festivals the number of persons 
resorting to the city exceeds all calculation.
