While No I makes Mangaldeva as the Usurper of the Gadi, making him the third son but this table clears him off at all from the blame of his black deeds of usurpation. As regards Raisingh, the fifth, both agree and put four names between Raisingh andUdaisingh. They make Ranmal the eldest son of Goolabsingh instead of Bubersingh.

Taking this also into consideration it seems reasonable that Wasadia Gemalsingbji should suceed to the Gadi in the place of the late Maharaja". Keshow Narsingh the staunch supporter of Gemalsingh's cause wrote twice to the then Agent, firstly on 16th. July 1861 and secondly on 13th November 1861 confidentially. In his first letter he expoused the cause of Gemalsingbil and deplored the Government's intention in conneetion with Goolabsingh's right.
