Sections XIV. and XV. for the attachment of the lands of defaulting* pro-^j
prietors. If the surety shall not possess any landed property within the
zillah in which the lands of the defaulter shall be situated, but shall possess
lands in any other zillah within the ceded provinces, or within either of
the provinces of Bengal, Behar, Orissa, or Benares, the collector is to
depute an aumeen into the zillah in which such property may he situated,
with a letter specifying the amount of the demand on him and the pro-
perty to be attached. The collector of such zillah is immediately to order
a peon to point out the property to the aumeen, who is to keep it in
attachment until the Board of Revenue shall oAamo^ Ao sanction q/"
Ao GovoF7207*-Gc7707'77/ 777 G0777202J jGr the sale of it.
/Shco77& The expense of the establishment of the aumeen, and all other
charges attending his deputation, shall be defrayed by the surety, and dis-
bursed from the collections made from his estate or farm. The dewan or
head native officer of the surety, or any other person whom he may think
proper to appoint, is to keep a counterpart of the accounts of the receipts
and disbursements by the aumeen. The aumeen is to collect according to
the engagements that may subsist between the surety and his dependent
talookdars, under-farmers, and ryots, and shall not make any alterations
whatever in such engagements or exact more than the amount specified in
them. The aumeen shall be liable to a prosecution, in the Court of
Adawlut of the zillah, for any alterations or infringement of such engage-
ments. In cases in which no engagements may exist between the surety
and his dependent talookdars or ryots, the aumeen is to collect from them
according to the established rules and usages of the pergunnah. The
aumeen shall likewise be subject to a prosecution by the proprietor of the
estate, or the farmer, for embezzlement or injuries done to the estate or
farm, during the time that the collection of the rents and revenues of it
may be intrusted to him. The aumeen is to apply the amount of the
collections from the lands, after deducting the expenses of his establish-
ment, towards the discharge of the public revenue, which he is to pay to
the collector of the zillah in which the lands may be situated. If any
surplus shall remain after making good the public dues, it is to be appro-
priated towards the discharge of the demand on account of which the
attachment of the lands may have been made.
iTAAA If the property of the surety that may be attached shall be too
inconsiderable to admit of its being charged with the expense of an
aumeen, the collector to whom the money due from the surety may be
payable, is to apply to the collector of the zillah in which the lands* may
be situated, to order the nearest tehseehlar or native officer employed
under him in the business of the collections, to take charge of the lands;
and the collector to whom the application shall be made is to comply with
it, and the tehseeldar or native officer to whose charge he may commit the
lands is to perform the duties prescribed to the aumeen in the preceding
clause, and under the same restrictions and penalties. The collector of
the zillah in which the lands may be situated is not to be liable to any
prosecution on account of the attachment; but the collector, in conformity
to whose application the attachment may take place, is to be responsible
for the consequences, in the same manner as if the lands had been situated
in his own jurisdiction. .Z?o%7'6^ o/* A A ^0
