in these leases, by restoring* such of the renters as appeared to have been
unduly dispossessed, by admitting* the heirs of parties deceased, or rein-
stating- the ancient zemindars, both in lands relinquished by farmers, or
which had remained amanny in the hands of the aumils, and finally, by
adopting- means to improve the cultivation preparatory to issuing new
permanent leases (which were accordingly granted) to the landholders and
farmers in the pergunnalis of Nerwun, Dhoos, and Chownsa, the settle-
ments made in which places in 1197 had in general failed, owing to the
lands being too highly assessed, and to drought and other calamities of
season. The settlement of Suhtes Ghur also being in a similar predica-
ment, was renewed by the resident in the month of October, 1792; and
the experience of several years having evinced that some part of the per-
gunnah of Zemanea, in the sircar of Ghazeepoor, had been too highly
assessed, adequate abatements were in consequence allowed.
XXIII. In the beginning of the Fussily year 1202, a circular order
under date the 1st of November, 1794, was issued to all the aumils, pro-
hibiting them, under penalty of dismission from their aumildarries, from
displacing or dispossessing any person holding a pottah from Government
without the assent of the resident; and on the 20th of July, 1795, cir-
cular instructions were transmitted to the canongoes, enjoining them to
report without delay the death of all suclr pottah-liolders, that no lands
might remain amauny under the aumils without the knowledge of
Government.
XXIV. In Section XIX. it has been stated, that it was an original
regulation of the general settlement concluded in 1197, that proof of the
aumil having made undue exactions from, or otherwise oppressed, any of
the landholders or farmers holding pottahs and paying revenue to Govern-
ment, should entitle such injured party or parties to become huzoory,
i. e. to pay.tlieir revenue into the treasury at Benares instead of through
the medium of the aumil. [Rz^yhz R^ zzzozg q^7cRzzA 3dczz-
