Village, Town, and Jungle Life in India

- The Author long experience of life in the country between 1874 and 1902 in many parts-town and jungle, hills and plains has enabled me to collect much detailed informations. He has arrange these notes in the hope that they may be interesting to those about to proceed to India. In nearly every village is a collection of rough two-wheel carts without spring, used for conveying the crops to market. Round the villages are heaps of Cow refuse, collected daily by the low –caste of out-caste people. In the hottest months and the most unhealthy ones most ladies go to the hill stations and then town life is not so bright but there is always something going on, tennis or billiard tournaments and when the weather will allow, races and spots. At homes, dances , garden parties and other pleasant gathering are frequent.
