XXI. To render the several zillahs as compact as possible, the collectors
are to report every instance in which lands included in their respective
zillahs may be circumscribed by any other zillah, and also where lands
included in other zillaln are circumscribed by their own zillahs, in order
that such lands may be annexed to the zillah by which they are circum-
scribed. The collectors are also to send information to the Board of

authority.

revenue into their treasuries, specifying the date or dates on which the

of these receipts regularly numbered. After having registered the
receipts, they are to attest on the face of them the date on which they
may be registered. A copy of this register is to be transmitted monthly

ances, of whatever kind, which may be paid by the collectors, are to be
deposited amongst the public records of their respective zillahs, and a
register of them is to be kept by the keepers of the native records. A
copy of the register is to be transmitted annually to the Board of
Revenue.

resignation or removal of collectors, no collector is to be permitted to
depart from his station, until he shall have either delivered over complete
charge of his trust to his successor or to his assistant, and until notification
shall have been made to the Board of Revenue of his having complied with
this rule, and their sanction shall have been obtained for his departure.
This rule shall on no account be dispensed with, unless by special per-
mission from the Board of Revenue, which is to be granted only in
particular cases that may appear to them to require it.
