1 KHARIAN, - 65
2 Khawaspura is a small yillage inhabited
3 within the Sarae, after which sname it is
4 called: the wall round it is Pucka, or of burnt
5 bricks, but is now going to decay. The en-
6 camping ground was north-west, on a broken
7 and confined spot; good shooting in a low and
8 stunted jungle close by. There is only one well
9 at the place: the water used was from a spring.
10 During the reign of Akbar these great Saraes
11 were built at a distance of six or seven kos
12 from each other between Agra and the Indus for
13 the accommodation of travellers: Saraes were’
14 likewise erected at the same time on the road
15 to Kashmir; they are now declining to ruin.
16 Started early on the 30th and encamped
17 at Kharian, a small village. The road tole-
18 rable, encamping ground irregular. There
19 are two large wells, and the deepest Baolee I
20 betokened he still existed ; but he was insensidle, and no
21 wonder, as he had bled profusely, and he was thus being
22 inhumanly left to perish, as no one dared to assist him.
23 The block, a rude piece of wood, was lying by his side;
24 but the hands had been carried® off for the purpose of being
25 exposed near the spot where he had committed the depre-
26 dation.”--Barr’s Journal, pp. 148, 150, 151.
