I liad in 1882 an opportnnity of testing at first hand, though on a 
small scale, both the above list of words and the shawl-weavers nume¬ 
rals given by Dr. Leitner, and I found them to be in the main correctly 
recorded, i. e., according to my own ear, if I rightly read his somewhat 
puzzling transliterations. I should, however, like to make a few remarks 
and additions. 
The Naqqash I examined were Kashmiris, but Dr, Leitner’s were 
apparently Panjabis. 
The Naqqash words especially tested by me are given in the follow¬ 
ing list 
* In this list Dr. Leitner’s words are according to his own transliteration, mine 
are given in that adopted by the Society.
