[By the courtesy of the Government of the Punjab
am enabled to add to this appendix the statement recently compiled by L. Sita Ram Kohly, M.A., who I
has been conducting some researches into the MS. records lying in the Punjab Secretariat. There are many hundreds of these records still to be examined, and further investigation will no doubt yield important results. In the meantime it may be of interest to the reader to .compare the actual figures for 1844, as obtained from these records, with those given by the author.
