1. AVuEREAS it is enacted in tiie first clause of Section III. Regula-
tion XL 1806, that on receiving the notification mentioned in the pre-
ceding section, relative to a body of troops about to proceed, by land or
by water, through any part of the Company's territories, the collector of
the district shall immediately issue the necessary orders to the landholders,
farmers, tehsildars, or other persons in charge of the lands through which
the troops are to pass, for providing the supplies required, and for making-
any requisite preparations of boats, or temporary bridges, or otherwise for
enabling the troops to cross such rivers or nullahs as may intersect their
march without impediment or delay ; it being at the same time further-
directed, in the second clause of the section referred to, that the supplies
so furnished shall be paid for by the persons receiving the same, at the
current bazaar prices of the place at which they may be provided, and
that the expense incurred for crossing the troops and their baggage over
rivers or nullahs, after being duly ascertained, will be paid by Govern-
ment ; and whereas experience has shown the necessity of enabling the
collectors, or other public officers acting in that capacity, to enforce their
orders in the cases above mentioned, by imposing a fine upon any landholder,
tehsildar, or other person in the possession or management of land, who,
after receiving the requisition issued in pursuance of the section above
cited, may be proved to have wilfully disobeyed or neglected the same; the
Governor-General in Council has therefore enacted the following rules, to
be in force as soon as promulgated in all the provinces immediately subject
to the presidency of Fort William.
II. Any landholder, farmer, tehsildar, or other person in the possession
or management of land, who may have been duly required by a collector
of the land revenue (or any public officer acting in that capacity), in pur-
suance of Section III. Regulation XI. 1806, to provide supplies for a
body of troops about to proceed by land or water through any part of the
British territories, or to make preparations of boats, temporary bridges, or
otherwise, for enabling the troops to cross rivers or nullahs intersecting
their march ; and after the receipt of such requisition shall wilfully disobey
or neglect the same, or shall without sufficient cause fail to exert himself
for the due execution of the duty so assigned to him, shall, on proof of
such failure, neglect, or disobedience, to the satisfaction of the collector
(or other officer acting in that capacity) by whom the order may have been
issued, or of his successor in the same office, be liable to a fine propor-
tionate to the defaulter's condition in life and the circumstances of the
case, in such amount as the collector or other officer, with due regard to
Zemindars having
been warned by the
collector to provide
supplies fortroops,
or to provide boats,
