We showed him the printed geneologies. As eons as he saw that Ta. ble Nos 6 and 641 bore the impress of their origination from him, he became jubilant and at once offered to do what was within his power Prompt y be was requested to allow a glance over his half burnt papers. Next day be come to cur place with his half burnt papers, We worked for about three hours in company of Mr Umedasingh Bagadia and our labour bore a very safisfactory result.
Pices of papers belonging to the tables were shorted and joined. Thus almost all the pices of two tables were. joined. After joining them we found that one table was copy of a table granted by Agency court Surat and the other was copy of the said certified copy. Those two burnt tables practically tally with these to tables numbered 6 and 8/1. Of course they differ at one place. Their only difference is of vital interest. We find that aginst the name of Sursingh, the third grand son of Yograj, it is written " leich 419176141” that he was the son of Devan lady. These table bear the name of the fore fathers all the of present sharers of Bagumara Giras.

The time at which this table was pepared and submited to the Agency, was the time of contest, for the Bansda Gadi, between Ajab Singh Mohansingh, Hamirsingh Nabarsingh of Mandvi, Gemalsingh Nathubaba of Nadod and Gulabsingh Amrababa of Dovan. The object of the this table seems to give unqualified support to the cause of Hamirsingh Nabrasingh by pointing him out the nearest relation of Bansda Gadi. Such being the case no reliance can be placed upon it and it was properly rejected by the Agent. Eowever the mischief done by its preparation is still visible.
Further it is to be noted that, in this table, advantage has been taken of the adoption of Virsing's successor. Attempt has been made to show Naharsingh, the second son of Zorawarsingh, as issueless. Basides this, one peculiar aspect of this Table is that, inspite of the fact, that Hamirsingh's opponent, the descendants of Dajibaba, still it did dare to show him issuless.
it is admited by these tables that Sursingh went to Devan. But nothing is mentioned about his lineage. It is evident from the statement of Gemalsingh, the descendant of Hamirsingh Naharsingh, that his family belongs to the Bhagatia subsection and he is connected
