FORBES' OMENTAL MEMOIRS. v
On a journey from Baroch&itq.Dliuboy,
with a small escort, he; stopt at Nurrah, a
large ruined town which had been plunder
ed and burnt pot long before by the. Mahrat
tas. j ,Tbe principaUhouse, which was much
better . than the general style of houses in
4indostan, had belonged to ail opulent man,
who emigrate (hiring the war, and died in; a
distant country. ; It was now desolate and
the garden had run to waste. .Mr. forbes
was privately informed, tliat under one of the
towers there was a secret cell, formed to con
tain his treasure the information could not
be doubted, because it Cione from the very
mason who had been employed in construct?
- ' ta- I " a
ing tne cell. Accordingly une. man . ac
corapanied him . through several spacious
courts and extensive apartments, to a dark
elosej,in a tower : the room was about eight
leet square, being the whole size ol the in
terior of the to urer ; and it was some stories
above the place where the treasure was said
to be deposited. In the floor -there wa3 ra
hole large enough for a slender person to
pass through ; they enlarged it, and isent
down two' men by a ladder. A Her descend
ing several feet, they-came to another floor,
composed jn like manner of bricks, and chu
nam, and here also was a similar aperture.
This also was enlarged, torches were pro
cured, and by the light Mr. r orbes perceived
from the tipper apartment, a dungeon of great
depth below, as the mason had described-!
He desired the men to descend and search
for the treasure ; but they refused, declaring
that wherever money wa3 concealed in Hin
d os tan, there was always a demon, in the
shape of a serpent, to guard it. He laughed
at their superstition and repeated his or
ders in such a manner as to enforce obedi
ence, though his attendants sympathized with
the men, and seemed to expect the event
with more of fear and awe, than curiosity.
The ladder was too short to reach the dun-
lgeon ; strong topes, therefore, were sent for
and more torches. The men reluctantly obey
ed ; and as they were lo wered, the dark sides
and the jiioist floor of the dungeon were dis
dfstinguished by the light which they car
ried in their ,hands. But they had not been
many seconds on the ground before they
screamed out that they were enclosed with a
large snake. In spite of their screams, Mr.
Forbes was incredulous, and declared thai
the ropes should not be let down to them un
til he had seen the creature"; their cries were
dreadful ; he, however, was inflexible ; and
the upper lights were held steadily, to give
him as distinct a vie ,7 as possible into the
dungeon. There he perceived something
like billets of, wood, or rather, he says,
like a ship's cable seen from the 'deck, coiled
up in a dark hold ; but nO language can ex
press his sensation of astonishment and ter
ror, when he saw a serpent actually rear his
head, over an immense length of bodv, coil-
.l - - .i t . " -
eu m volumes on me ground ;. anu working
itself, intf exertion by a sort -of sluggish mo.
tion. What1 1 fell," he continue, " on
seeing two fellow creatures exposed by my or
ders to this fiend, I must leave to the reader s
imagination." ;To his inexpressible joy,
lliey were' drawn up unhurt,-but almost titc
less with fear. Hay was then tlirowi down
upon the lighted torches which they had
dropped,. YVhbi the flames had expired a
large snake was found scorched and , dead,
but no money. -Mr. Forbes . supposes that
the owner hat carried away the treasure
with him, but (Srgoiten to liberate the snake
w Inch he had placed there as its keeper.
WiietheiUhe 'snake was venomous or not he
has omitted to mention.or perhaps to observe;
11 11 were not,. 11 'would be, no defence for the
treasure v and if it were, it seems to have be
come too torpid with inaction, and conftne-
ment, and darkness, to exercise its powers
of destruction Where the popular belief
prevails, that "snakes are the guardians of
hidden treasure, and where the art of charm
ing serpents is commonly' practised, there is
no difficulty in supposing that they who con
ceal a treasurers is frequently done, under
the oppressive government of the East) woud
someiijnes place it under such protection.
. Uhuboy having been surrendered to Gen.
Goddard, in 1780, Mr. Forbes was" intrusU
cd'wiih the government ; it is the capital of a
uistrict, containing eighty -dour viIKSes, and
yielding, at that lime,' a revenue of about
500.000 The city! though its ruins bore
testimony" td.a former state of greater, pros
perity and population, contained about 40,000
persons, and as many monkeys, who, being

tern 01 Hostilities wnrcrrieii ine governor no
alternative but that of changing his lodgings,;!
for, he says, he could neither make reprisal,
nor expebt quarter. ;!
If there had been (ruth in the Hindoo my
thology, and gratitude in the breast of a mon
key, Hanuman himself ouht to have appear
ed upon this occasion, and informed his sub
jects of their obligation to Mr. JTprbes"; -
for, at the request of the Brahmins, he had
forbidden the Europeans, tinder hist Qom
mand to shoot any of the race, leaving ihem
in full enjoyment 'ofal their established
rights and privileges at Dhuboy. Mr. Forbes
did this in proper condescension to a harm
less superstitions at least, as harmless as any
superstition cambe; but h circumstance which
occurred within hs own knowledge' would
make hini on this occasion-lend a; willing
ear. On a shboting party, under a' bianlan
tree, one of his friends killed a 'female ntori-'
key, and carried it to his tent, which was
soon surrounded -by forty or fifty of the tribe
who made a great noise,' and seemed dispos
ed to attack their aggressor. They retreated
when he presented his; fowlingpiece. the
dreadful effect of which they had witnessed,
and appeared perfectly to uuderstand, -, .The
head of the troop, however, stood his ground
chattering furiously ; the sportsman, 1 who
perhaps felt some little degree of compunc
tion for having killed one oflh6 family, ' did
not like to fire at the cieature, and nothing
short of firing would suffice to drive him off.
At length he came to the door of the tent.and
finding threats of no avail, began a lamentable
moaning, and by. the most expressive ges
ture x seemed to beg for, the. deadL body. It
was given him; le took it sorrowfully in his
arms, and bore it away to his expecting com
panions ; they, wiio were witnesses of the
extraordinary scene, resolved never again to
fire at one of the monkey race.
When a Hindoo has been injured or slan
dered, by his neighbour, he has recourse to
the monkeys, as an agency to avenge his
wrongs, instead of the lawyers. The tiles
in mndostan are not lastened on tne root
with mortar, but laid regulariv one over the
other; just before the wet season comes on
they are turned and adjusted ; being placed
in order then, they keep the house dry wliile
the rains last during the other eight months
it matters not if they are misplaced. It is
when tney nave just been turned, and the
first heavy rain is hourly expected, jithat the
monkeys are called in. The injured person
goes by night to the house of his adversary.
and contrives to strew a quantity of nee 01
other, grain over the roof. The monkeys
speedily discover it, and crowd to pick it
up ; they find that much has fallen between
the tiles, and make no scruple of unroofing
the house when no workmen can be pro
cured to repair the mischief. Down comes
the ram, soaks through the floor, and rums
the furniture, and depositories of grain, which
are generally made of unbaked clay; dried
and rubbed over, with cow-dung. ' it .
A short time before Mr. Forbes was ap
pointed to fix his situation at Baroche, some
Mussuhien walking through a village where
a family of Raghpoots reside, accidentally
looked into a mom where -an elderJwomau
was eating ; no insult was inteuued ; (they
merely saw her at her meal,' and immediate
ly retired; but this was a disgrace for which
there could be no expiation. She lived with
her grandson, a high-intnded young man; he
happened to be absent: on his return she
told him what had passed and declared that
she could not survive the circumstance, and
entreated mm to put tier to deatir. tie rea
soned wiih her calmly, his affection irraking
lima see the matter in its proper light ; one
but her own family, he said, knew the- dis-
grace, and the very men who occasioned 11
were unconscious of what they had done.-
She wailed till he . went out again, and then
fractured her skull by beating it against the
wall ! The young man found her in this
slate, -but alive, and in her senses i she im
plored him to finish the sacrifice which she
had not strength to accomplish, and release
her from her sufferings;-; he then stabbed her
to the heart.
