Jjk 1672 the population of the Division was 2 \ ALtlHABAD 6,466.116, in 1881 5,754,855, and in 1891 6,941,599. The administrative head-quarters are at Allahabad, the capital of the North* West Provinces and Oudh. The District of Allahabad has an area of 2,833 square miles, or 1,793,906 acres, and is bounded on the north by the Partabgarh Dis¬ trict in Oudh; on the east by Jaunpore and Mirzapore ; on the south by the Native State of Bewah ; and on the south-west and west by the Banda andPatehpore Districts. Great¬ est length of the District from east to west, 74 miles; maximum breadth from north to south, 64 miles. In 1872 the population num¬ bered 1,394,245, in 1881 1,474,106, and in 1891 1,549,436. The District of Allahabad is situated at the confluence of the Jumna and Ganges rivers, and its limits embrace the territory lying be¬ tween the two great streams, together with portions beyond their outer bánks. The main rivers of the District are the Gan¬ ges, Jumna, Tons and Belan. The Ganges, after entering Allahabad at its north-western cor¬ ner, flows a south-easterly course for 78 miles. The breadth between the high banks of the river, corresponding with the breadth of the stream at high flood, varies from one to six miles and averages about two and a half or three miles. The average breadth of the stream when at its lowest in May and June is about 6ÜIDB A51> SIBBCTOBY. i' 3 three-quarters of a mile. Daring the rainy season the rirer is navigable for any kind of craft) the average depth being 60 or 70 feet. In the dry season the depth goes down to 15 or 20 feet, but navigation is difficult for large boats at this time, on account of the number of shifting sand-banks. The river has no permanent bridges, but bridges of boats are maintained irom October to June at Eajghî^t, where the G-rand Trunk Boad crosses the river towards Delhi ; and also at Fapamhow, the starting-place of the main road to south-eastern Gudh. In the rains these bridges are replaced by ferries. Boat ferries also ply between the principal villages. Frequent changes take place in the course of the stream, and alluvion and diluvion take place yearly on a large scale, and become a fruitful source of affrays and litigation in the land courts. The Jumna enters the District at its south-west corner, holding a course of 63 miles east by north-east, till it effects a junction with the Ganges opposite Allahabad city. The Jumna differs from the Ganges in its narrower valley, its more constant bed, the greater clearness of its waters, and the greater number and depth of the ravines on its banks. The breadth of the stream in time of flood averages a mile and a half, and in the dry season half a mile. It is navigable at all seasons of the year, but in the hot months navigation by large cargo boata is impeded by numerous shallows, Averaga 4 AilAHABAD depth in the rains, 80 feet ; and in the hot season, 16 feet. A permanent railway bridge spans the rirer about a mile above its junction with the Ganges, and ferries are maintained at the more important crossings. The Tons river rises in the Kaimur Hills south of the District, and flows a north-easterly course till it falls into the Ganges some 19 miles below the confluence of that stream with the Jumna, The river has a rocky bed, and stony rapids are met with every few miles up to within a short distance of the Ganges. Navigable by small boats, but at certain places only. Crossed by the East Indian Eailway bridge two or three miles above its mouth, and by several boat ferries. The Belan, also rising in the E^aimur Hills, enters the District from the south-east, and flowing a westerly course, falls into the Tons on the Bewah border. The bed of the river is stony, and numerous rapids render navigation impossible. Ferries are maintained at road crossings during the rains ; at other seasons the river is almost everywhere fordable^ The other streams and water-courses of the District are quite unimportant, and only con¬ tain water in the rainy season. The only lake of any importance is the Alwara jJiilj in the extreme west of the District, a shallow but permanent sheet of water, 2| miles long by ^ miles broad, whose marshy flats are covered with wild-duci; t^al, coot, and othei: water-r eüIDB AKD DIfiSCTOBT. S fowl. Excellent sport may also bé obtained among the hills of the trans-Jumna region. Minerals are few, but good building stone is found at Fartabpur, Deoria, and Sajapur. The stone used for building Âkbar's fort came from the Deoria and Fartabpur quarries, which are conveniently situated for water carriage on the south bank of the Jumna. In the Mahabharata, the country round , Allahabad bears the name of Varanavata, and was the scene of the exile undergone by the famous Fandava brethren. At the period of the Bamayana, the trans-Ganges region was ruled by the Baja of Kosala; and we learn that Bama was welcomed, on his banishment, at Singror in this District, by Guha, King of the ßhils. The mythical hero of the Solar race crossed the Ganges in a boat, entered Allah¬ abad, and proceeded over the Jumna into Bundelkhund. But the earliest authentic in formation which we possess with reference to the District is obtained from a sculptured monument in the fort at Allahabad, erected by the Buddhist King Asoka, about the year B. 0. 240. This pillar, a tall and slender mono¬ lith with a tapering shaft, bears, in addition to the edict of its original founder—Asoka—a later inscription detailing the conquests of Samudra Gupta, about the second century after Christ ; and it was re-erected in 1605 by- the Moghul Emperor Jehangir, who has com- 6 ALLAHABAD /memorâted thereon his accession in a Persian Vlegend. Fa Hian, the Chinese Buddhist pil¬ grim, found the District still a part of the Kosala kingdom about a.i>. 414; and two centuries later, his countryman, Hwen Thsang, visited Prayag (the Hindu name of Allahabad), where he records the existence of two Bud¬ dhist monasteries and many Hindu temples. From this (ime we know nothing of the history of Allahabad until the invasion of. 8hahab-ud-din Ghoñ in 1194. The . District was then conquered by the Musalmans, in whose hands it remained until the introduc¬ tion of British rule. During the 13th and 14th centuries the country round Allahabad was included in the fief of Karra, at which town the Governor had his head-quarters. Karra was the scene of the famous meeting between Muiz-ud-din and his father in 1286. The son had just succeeded Balban on the throne of Delhi, and the father was making his way up from Bengal to oppose him. They met at Karra, and, inspired with an aversion to bloodshed, conferred with each other from boats in the middle of the Ganges, and resolved to march together to the capital, .^llahabad was in the possession of Ala-ud-din pt the end of the 13th century, and it was in the Itown of Karra that he basely murdered his v^jncle, the aged Sultan Firoz Shah. Under succeeding princes, the history of the District I etTIBB Am) DIBBCTOBY. 7 is a tedious narrative of ambitious revolts and their barbarous suppression. About 1529, Allahabad was wrested from the Pathans by Babar, and its modern name was bestowed upon it by the Emperor Akbar, Prince Selim had his residence here as Governor during the lUetime of his father ; and the mausoleum in the Ebusfu Bagh commemorates Selim's re¬ bellious son. Early in the 18th century, when the Bundelas under Ghhatar Sal were beginning their successful national movement against tíie Moghul power, Allahabad was overrun by the Bundela and Maratha chief¬ tains. During the subsequent anarchy, the Oudh Government at one time held the supre¬ macy ; at another, the ubiquitous Maratbi's were in possession ; and' still later, in 1765, the English restored the town to Shah Alam, the phantom Emperor of Delhi. For soma years Allahabad was the seat of the imperial court; but in 1771 Shah Alam removed to Delhi, and threw himself into the arms of tb& Marathas. The British held that his eastern dominions were vacated and sold the aban¬ doned Provinces to the Nawah of Oudh for 50 lakhs of rupees. Shah Alam remained a State prisoner in the bands of the Marathas until 1803, when the victories of Lord Lake set him free. Meanwhile difficulties arose from time to time with regard to the payment of the Oudh tribute, which was permanently in arrears; n 8 aixáhábad and in 1801 the Nawab agreed to á Com¬ promise, by which he made over his territory between the Ganges and the Jumna to the British Goyernment in lieu of tribute. The District of Allahabad formed part of the tract thus ceded. The means of communication in the District are excellent and yaried. The East Indian _ * Eailway main line runs through the whole length from south-east to north-west. It enters from the side of Mirzapore, and mus for 36 miles south of Ganges ; at Naini it crosses the Jumna by a magnificent iron girder bridge 1,110 yards long and 106 feet above the river, and passes close to the city of Allahabad ; thence it runs north-westerly through the Doab parganas, and emerges from the Dis¬ trict 43 miles from Allahabad. The stations on this line within the District boundaries are Nahwi, Sirsa Bead, Karchhana, Naini, Allahabad, Manauri, Bharwari and Sirathu.^ The Jabalpur ("Jubbulpore) branch of the East Indian Bailway, the through route to Bombay in connection with the Great Indian Peninsula line, runs through the trans-Jumna parganas with stations at Jasra and Surajpur. It diverges from the maia line at Naini Junction, and passes into Bewah^ 23 miles south-west of Allahabad. Passenger steamers formerly plied between Calcutta and Allahabad, until superseded by the railway. euiBS Airi) DTBBCTOEt; d l%e Grand Trunk Boad, running nearly parallel with the East Indian Bailway, passes through the District for 76 miles and conveys the main local traffic. Other good roads connect Allahabad with all the surround" ing centres of population. Total length of communications—railways, 102 miles ; metalled roads, 207 miles ; unmetalled roads, 626 miles ; navigable rivers, 141 miles. The City of Allahabad is the third in point of size in the North-West Provinces, and the first in administrative importance, being the head-quarters of the Government of the North- West Provinces and Oudh. Allahabad was the seat of the Provincial Government from 1833, when the North-Western Provinces were constituted a separate administration, till 1835 when the capital was removed to Agra. Agra remained the seat of the Government of the North-Western Provinces until 1858. After the suppression of the Mutiny in that year, Allahabad again became the provincial capital, and has continued to be so up to the present date. It is 844 miles from Bombay, 564 from Calcutta, and 89 from Benares, and 293 feet above datum. The city lies on the left bank of the Jumna^ Í on the wedge of land formed by its confluence with the Ganges. The population in 1872, in¬ cluding cantonments and suburbs, amounted to 143,693. In 1881, the total population, inclusive 10 ALLIHABÁD of cantonments, vas returned at 148,547. In 1891 the population was 176,770. The military force stationed at Allahabad on the 1st January 1893, consisted of two batteries of artillery, one regiment of European and one of Native Infantry, and a regiment of Native Cavalry. The cantonment population numbers about 10,000. On the angle formed by the junction of the Ganges and the Jumna stands the fort, its walls and glacis towering above the river banks. The civil station, canton¬ ments, and city cover an area of 22,202 acres, and occupy the plain between the rivers ; stretching back for a distance of over six miles from their point of junction. The city somewhat recedes from the Ganges, but reaches down to the Jumna bank, from which a few ravines run upwards into the level expanse. A large tract of low-lying land stretches along the Ganges bank, with the thriving suburb of Daragunge inland on the higher ground towards the fort. The English quarter is handsomely laid out with broad, well-watered roads, planted on both sides with trees. Many of the European residences stand in large compounds or parks, and the i station is adorned with public buildings and gardens. The native city consists of a network of narrow streets, intersected by a few main roads. The houses are of every des- [ciiption. from the mud hovel of the suburbs to eUIBB ABB BIEECTOBT« 11 the garden palace of the Alopi Bagh, and the modern mansions of the wealthy native mer¬ chants in Daragunge and Kydgunge. The East Indian Eailway enters the city from the east by a magnificent bridge across the Jumna. Two bridges of boats lead over the Ganges ; while the great rivers afiord a water-way to all the principal cities of Bengal and the !North- West. The Grand Trunk Boad also passes ^hrough Allahabad. The founding of Allahabad was due, it is said, to an ancient custom of the Hindus to erect one or more shrines at every eligible point of land overlooking a river. The junc¬ tion of the muddy waters of the Ganges with those of the clear and limpid Jumna was con¬ sidered by them more than usually propitious and sacred, and as a consequence the point was commanded on all the four sides by temples and small clustering villages. Thei original Allah¬ abad was a village named by the Hindus Frayag, situated on the Jumna side of the pen¬ insula, and corresponding to Daragunge on the banks of the Ganges. Answering to each of these there were, respectively, on the oppo¬ site side of the Jumna, the village of Arail, a name subsequently changed by Akbar to Jalal¬ abad, and opposite to Daragunge was the now decayed village of Jhusi. As Prayag occu¬ pied the most advantageous position from a strategical point of view, the reason is clear I 12 AtltAHASAl) why it was selected by the Moslem conqueroi^ as the site of his fortress. Strangely enough, whilst Akbar gloried in the destruction of the temples and shrines of the Hindus, the one at Frayag he not only allowed to remain, but did his best to preserve by erecting his fort around it, thus we have the only relic of Hin¬ duism of the Idme that preceded the Maho- medan occupancy now to be seen there. This 'was in 1575 A.»., and the name of Prayag was changed by Akbar to Ilahabas, meaning the city of idols. Subsequently, this again became altered or corrupted to Allahabad—the ^city of God. At the time of the outbreak of the Sepoy War it would have been difficult to exaggerate the importance of holding Allahabad, command¬ ing as it does the great fluvial thoroughfare of Hindustan, and also the high road by land from the Upper to the Lower Provinces. Soth in a strategical and political sense, its security had ever been of great moment ; but the recent annexation of Oudh by Lord Dalhousie had ren¬ dered it still more essential that it should be safely in hand. In this powerful fortress of Allahabad was an arsenal stored with all the munitions of war, and an array of guns in posi¬ tion commanding the approaches of the country below. And their possession by the country would have been a disaster beyond comparison. Some time before Sir James Outram had sug- I WIDE AND EIESCTOET. gested to Lord Canning the expediency of adopting measures for the greater security of Allahabad» and had warned him of the danger of such a mischance befalling us. These warn¬ ings were emphatically repeated by Sir Henry Lawrence ; and, says the historian of the Sepoy War, there was no place to which Lord Can-? ning turned bis thoughts with greater anxiety and alarm, no place to which he was more eager to send relief in the shape of European troops. The news of the outbreak at Meerut reached 4^ahabad on the 12th May. The native troops who occupied their lines in the cantonments^ then situated in the neighbourhood of Huttra, consisted of the 6th Bengal Native Infantry under Colonel Simpson, a wing of the Ferozer pore Begiment of Sikhs commanded by Captain Brayser, and two troops of Oudh Irregular Horse, lately arrived from Lucknow. A small body of about sixty pensioned and invalid artil¬ lerymen were brought in from Chuñar as the news of the spread of the rebellion arrived, and the usual native detachments were posted in the Fort. The principal pivil officers wete Mr. Chester, the Commissioner, and Mr. Fendall Thompson and Mr. Court, the Magistrates, both men of courage and resolution, not easily shaken or disturbed. They and other civilians, as well as the military officers, dwelt in comr fortable and pleasant garden-houses in the ^uropeau quarter, Kuttra^ without an anxiouf 14 ALLAHABAD thought of the future to disturb them. Dis¬ quieting rumours soon prevailed in Allahabad cantonments, but precautionary measures were taken in the Fort and approaches to the city, and afiairs remained quiet for some time. The Sepoys at Benares having risen in, revolt, on June 4th a company of the Sixth, with two guns, was sent to defend the bridge of boats at Daragunge, by which, it was feared, the passage of the Ganges would be attempt¬ ed, and a troop of the Irregulars were told off to defend the cantonments. The Sepoys of the Sixth volunteered to march against the rebels at Delhi, and at the sun-set parade, on the 6th June, the thanks of the Gov¬ ernor-General were read to the regiment for their devoted loyalty. Mr. Chester, who had attended at the request of Colonel Simpson, addressed the regiment in high-flown Hindus¬ tani, praising them for the singular loyalty they bad evinced. The Sepoys appeared to be in high spirits, and they sent up a ringing cheer in response to the Commissioner's words. When the parade was dismissed, Colonel Simpson, Captain Plunkett, Captain Gordon, Adjutant Steward, Quartermaster Hawes, and the other lieutenants, ensigns, and cadets repaired to the mess, the building now standing at the corner of Kuttra and Cutcherry Boads, and that was the last mess dinner of the 6tb Bengal Native Infantry, GmBB AND DtBECTOBT. 15 " There was a goodly gathering in the mess- house," says Sir John Kaye, " for the number of officers had been recently increased by the arrival of a party of young cadets who had been ordered to do duty with the Sixth—mere boys, with the roses of England on their cheeks, and the kisses of their mothers still fresh upon their lips. Without any sense of ills to come, f old and young took their places at the dinner- table in perfect serenity of mind. There was atleast one faithful regiment in the service." At nine o'clock that very evening the European community were startled by the sound of a bugle call announcing the alarm " general as¬ sembly." The Colonel, who had left the mess, and was leisurely strolHng home, ran to his bungalow,' mounted his charger in hot haste, and rode oS to the Quarter G-uard, whither the other officers had already repaired. The truth was soon apparent« The faithful " Sixth had mutinied ! The escort that had been told off to guard the two guns sent to Daragunge against the Benares mutineers rose up against their officers, and attempted to make away with the guns. , Lieutenant Alexander, as he rode for¬ ward and was rising in his stirrups to strike, was shot through the heart and hacked with sabre-cuts about his head and face ; and the artillery officer, Lieutenant Harward, nar¬ rowly escaped with his life. The muti¬ neers then sent up rockets as signals to w ALLIHABAD their comrades, and marched back to the lines with the. two guns« When Colonel Simpson rode up to inquire why the guns had been brought on the parade-ground, instead of being taken back to the Fort, two of the Sepoys of the escort replied by firing upon him. He tried to remonstrate with them, but expostulation was in rain. A volley of musketry responded to his words, and he ^ saw that everywhere on the parade-ground ' the Sepoys were shooting down their officers. Despairing of saving the colours, the gallant Colonel rode oñ to the left of the lines and there harangued the men of the Light Infantry. They besought him and Lieutenant Currie to ride for their very lives to the Fort. Hoping still to save the Treasury, they rode in that direction, only to find that the whole Treasury Guard, thirty-two men on one flank, with a night-picket on the other, had turned out and were firing upon them. Evidently the Sepoys were not marksmen, or even second-class shots, m the days of John Company's Enfield, for nnly one shot, out of the sixty-four and more, came anywhere near the mark, and that grazed the Colonel's helmet. They then gal¬ loped ofE with their charmed lives to the mess, where again the guard formed in line, and delivered a bad volley. A musket-ball, how- jever, struck the Colonel's horse, but Simpson hiinse^ was ^till unhurt, save by a blow on th^ OÜIDB DIBECTOBT 17 ftrm from a spent sbot ; and the last dying efforts of his charger landed him safely within the walls of the Fort, covered with the blood of the noble animal that had borne him. Lieutenant Hicks, and two cadets, Fear- son and Woodgate, were at Daragunge when the outbreak occurred. They were made pri¬ soners, and taken along with the two guns to the cantonments, hut the Sepoys, in their eagerness to plunder the Treasury, suffered them to depart, and they managed to reach the Fort unharmed ; so also did Carrie and Gor¬ don ; but Captain Plunkett, Adjutant Steward, Quartermaster Hawes, and Ensigns Pringle and Munro were shot down on parade. Fort Ad¬ jutant Birch and Lieutenant Innes, of the Engineers, were also killed, and eight of the unposted boy-ensigns were murdered in cold blood. This incident is known as the mas¬ sacre of the " poor little griffins." The poor boys were leaving the mess-house, when the brutal soldiery fell Upon them. Seven were slaughtered on the ground, but one, a boy of sixteen, escaped with his wounds, and hid himself in a ravine. Here^ says Owen in his journal, he supported himself for some days by water from a brook ; but he was found out and dragged before a rebelleader, who caused him to be confined in a serai along with a native cateehist. It is said that both were soon after rescued. The noble boy, him- 18 ALLAHABAD self, died in the Fort on the 16th June from exhaustion and neglected wounds. / In the, city and cantonments such tumult, confusion, and consternation prevailed as had never been known before. All through the night of the 6th June, license and rapine held full sway. The Jail was broken open and the prisoners released. Vast numbers of criminals, with the irons still rattling on their limbs, rushed forth to turn their newly-acquired liberty to account in the indulgence of all the worst passions of humanity. To the English quartern they made their way, yelling as they went, and every European or Eurasian who crossed their path was mercilessly butchered on the spot. The houses of the Christian inha¬ bitants were plundered, and the flames from the burning bungalows soon lit up the skies. And there was a mighty pillage in the quarters of the Christian shopkeepers, and the wharfs and warehouses of the steam-boat companies. Ae for the railway and the telegraph, there seemed to be an especial rage against them. The fort station was destroyed, telegraph wires cut, and the locomotives, which the ignorant rebels fear¬ ed to approach, were bombarded. Not only did every European fall a victim to the demoniacal fury of the " budmashes, but the populace even fell upon and robbed harmless pilgrims to Prayag, and only spared them by abject promises to ¿sgorge the savings of a life, and to swear I GUIDE AND DIUECrORT. 19 allegiance to the "restored" Govei'nment of the Mogul,—restored, they thought, because over the City Kotwali the green flag of the False Prophet was flying. ^ On the morning of the 7th the Treasury was sacked, and the Sepoy regiment disband* ed itself, each man carrying his plunder, to the extent of Rs. 3,000 or Rs. 4,000, to his native village, only to be murdered for it when he got there. A Mahomedan, who presented himself to the people as a prophet endowed by heaven, established himself in the Khusru Bagh, and succeeded in keeping awake the hatred of the English name, and was appointed Governor of Allahabad. On June 11th, General Neill arrived at Allahabad from Ben¬ ares, and on the morning of the 12th com¬ menced the work of retribution by opening fire from the Fort guns on the village of Dara- gunge, following this up with a detachment of his regiment of Fusiliers, who burned the vil¬ lage and regained possession of the bridge of boats. Neill then turned his attention to the native city, which he also shelled from the river, and sent out parties of Fusiliers, Sikhs, and Irregulars, who, maddened by the outrages which had been inflicted on English women and children, recked little whom they slew so Jong as the victim was a native. But to the honour of Neill the infliction of punishment was not a delight, but an awful duty. "God I 20 allahabâb grant," he wrote on the 17th, " I may have acted with eeverity, but under all the circum¬ stances I trust for forgiveness." So great was the terror in the city and district that the inhabitants deserted m masse^ and the Mahomedan Governor fled to Cawnpore. By the time Neill had made elbow room for himself around Allahabad, tidings reached him of the hapless situation of the garrison at Cawnpore, and of the danger which threaten¬ ed Lucknow, and he vigorously engaged in preparations for a further advance. But in¬ superable hindrances interposed, and it was not until the 30th of June that he was readv to start. The railway from the Fort at Allah¬ abad to Cawnpore was in course of construc¬ tion : forty miles of it indeed, as far as Lo- hanga, had been completed, but it was found that the mutineers had not only destroyed the rolling stock, but had torn up the permanent-way. They had also driven off 1,600 draught bullocks which the transport ofScers had collected, des¬ troyed stores, carts, and tents, and scared away the contractors and their people. Neill had to begin afresh the work of preparation and reorganisation. He laboured zealously, and worked wonders to furnish equipment for the expedition which he knew was on its way un¬ der the command of General Havelock. Havelock reached Benares on June 27th, anfl took up command of his brigade ; and leaving GTJIDB AKD BIKECTOBT. 21 that City on the evening of the 29th, reached Allahabad on the morning of the 30th, just as Neiirs advance column was leaving the Fort on its way to relieve Cawnpore. But the fearful Nana had already begun his bloody work, and the massacre of the Cawnpore garrison was now three days' old. Havelock, finding himself destitute of any cavalry on which he could rely, organised a troop of volunteers, consisting of indigo-planters, burnt-out shopkeepers and patrols, in short, of all who were willing to join him. This gallant little band were com¬ manded by Captain Barrow, and " Barrow's Horse" as they were known, rendered most brilliant service during the Mutiny, and to-day the troop exists as the Allahabad Troop of Light Horse, with men still in its ranks who served throughout that memorable campaign. On July 7th, Havelock was ready to follow Neill to the relief of Cawnpore, and on that day he rode out of Allahabad at the head of 1,500 men never to return. He died at Dilkusha, near Lucknow, on November 24th, a fortnight after the arrival at Lucknow of Sir Colin Campbell. Havelock's Ironsides had scarcely cleared the environs of Allahabad when the clouds opened and the monsoon min came down in torrents. It was the season of the Indian year which is most enervating to people of our /northern race. It was the season of the fierce Wndian summer, when the white man who I 22 ATXAHABAD /comes to India does so at tne risk of his llife : and this should be e^er present in Ithe minds of those who read how in the flMutiny our soldiers marched and fought, how our tenderly-nurtured country-women suffered (every deprivation, were subject to squalor and exposure unspeakable, under a sun whose beams were as deadly as the bullets of the ^epoys. \ The Civil Station of Allahabad comprises the whole of the peninsula within Municipal limits that has not been described as being occupied by the Cantonments or the City. It was laid out just after the Mutiny, under the superin¬ tendence of Mr. C. B. Thornhill, the then Commissioner. It is separated from the City by South Eoad, and parallel with this, i, e., running from east to west, are the Canning, Elgin, Edmonstone, Club, Thornhill and Muir Beads ; while at right angles to these are the Stanley, Lyall, Couper, Albert, Strachey, Clive, i Colvin, Queen's, Drummond, Hastings, Maude, Napier and Lawrence Beads. All these are well laid out and shaded, and on each side of the Canning, Queen's and Thornhill Beads are double rows of trees with a ride between them. Cawnpore Bead runs diagonally through this network of roads from south-west to north¬ east, from the Dhuniungunge octroi outpost to the Mayo Hall ; and a great deal of trafic passes over it. eüIDB AKJ> BIEECTOBT« S3 This part of the Civil Station of Allahabad is called Canningïon, after *:he name of the Viceroy in whose time it was laid out, and is occupied by substantial houses built in a re¬ markably regular manner, inhabited by the European and Eurasian residents. Interspersed among these are many shops kept by European traders. There are two hotels—Laurie's and the Great Eastern—both situated near the railway station. On Canning Eoad is the General Post Office, and on Stanley Boad the North-West Provinces Club, founded in 1868, and containing over three hundred mem¬ bers. It is a large red-brick building, and at each end is an outlying block containing dor¬ mitories. On Queen's Boad, and near the railway station, are the Government Tele¬ graph Office and the Cannington police-station. A handsome stone church has been erected by private subscription at the place where Can¬ ning Boad crosses Queen's Boad. Just beyond this, but on the west side of Queen's Boad, is situated the Government Press, which affords employment to 850 persons, and is kept up at a net cost to Government of Es. 2,24,972 annually. The building was completed in 1874, and cost Bs. 3,45,000. We next come to the Government offices, four rectangular two- storeyed blocks, built of brick, witíi the exter¬ nal walls faced with sandstone in ashlar and rubble. These are in the classic style, and 24 AZZk'ffA'Bí3 were designed by Colonel fnow General) Peile, E. R, Public Works Department. The two to the west of Queen's Eoad contain the Govern¬ ment Secretariat md the Aecountant-Generar» offices. Those to the east are occupied by the High Court and the Board of Revenue. These buildings were completed about 1870, and cost thirteen lakhs of rupees. On the Cawnpore teoad is the Allahabad Bank, a little to the west /of which, just on the borders of the Canton¬ ments, is Saint Andrew's Church, the Presby¬ terian place of worship for Allahabad. The first edifice raised in the new Civil Station was the Baptist Chapel, situated on the Elgin Eoad, and the first bungalow was the one standing on the southern side of the same road, where it is crossed by City Eoad. The improvements that have attended the growth of Cannington within the past quarter of a century have been great. At that period the place now known as Alfred Park was a large unkempt field. The most frequented road in the Allahabad Civil Station is the City Eoad, This leaves the City at the Suraj Kund railway bridge, and runs straight to Kuttra, a large market, which has snrung up chiefly to supply the wants of the European residents of the Civil Station. On this road are Saint Paul's College (a divinity school of the Church Missionary Society), the Alfred Park, the Eoman Catholic Cathedral, and the new Muir Colltge, GiriDB AND DIBECTOEY. 25 In 1870 the Duke of Edinburgh visited Alla¬ habad during his tour in India, and Sir William Muir, the then Lieutenant-Governor of the North-West Provinces, resolved to commemo¬ rate the first visit of a member of the Boyal Family to Allahabad by the opening of a public park that should bear his name. This was called the Alfred Park, and is the chief ornament of Allahabad. Its area is 133 acres 1 rood 29 poles, and it is situated on some Slightly undulating land, formerly the site of ^ very unhealthy cantonment. It is supported by Municipal grants to the amount of Bs. 8,000 a year, a Government grant of Bs. 1,600, and has minor sources of income. Near the centre of it is situated the band-stand, surrounded by beautifully kept flower-beds and grass- plots, a broad grarel pathway for pedestrians, and a spacious drive for carriages. This is the chief resort of the Allahabad community on band nights. In the park also is an excellent cricket-ground, with a picturesque and commo¬ dious pavilion ; and adjoining this are lawn- tennis courts. The park is circled by a ride for equestrians. Besides the houses of the park employes, the only building contained in it is the Thornhill-Mayne Memorial. This was completed in 1878, and contains a museum and Government library. The building was built from a design by Mr. B. B. Bayne, ar¬ chitect, Calcutta, and is constructed exclusively 26 ÀLLàHABlD of 9tone. Its cost was Es. 1,90,000. The ÎDstitutions it contains are maintained bj an annual grant of Es. 3,600 from the Magh Mela fund. Formerly there was a email zoological garden in the park, but it has now been remorad. Before the Mutiny, a little to the east of where the museum now stands, were the barracks of the European soldiers, whilst the public library and museum were lodged in the large and ancient bungalow at the junc¬ tion of Park Eoad with Church Eoad, and im¬ mediately opposite Holy Trinity Church, then the principal place of worship in the station. The park is separated from Government House on the east by Park Eoad. Govern¬ ment House is well situated, but is a white stucco building, without any pretensions to architectural beauty. Prior to 1875 the Lieu¬ tenant-Governor occupied the building known as Lowther Castle, and it is due to the energe¬ tic spirit of Sir William Muir that the pre¬ sent Government House was built. Imme¬ diately on the removal of the Governor to this new residence, Lowther Castle became the first home of the Muir College, with the late Mr. John Harrison as its first Principal. To the north of the Alfred Park stands the new Muir College, thefoundation-stene of which was laid by Lord Korthbrook in 1874. It has its name from Sir William Muir, formerly Lieu¬ tenant-Governor of the North-West Provinces, GUIDE AND DIEECTOET 27 and author of The Life of Mahomet. It is built in the form of a quadrangle, of which only three sides are occupied by buildings. On the south is a large hall, surmounted by a dome, and at the south-west corner is a lofty tower. The college faces westwards, and on this side is a row of class-rooms, with deep verandahs on each side. Over the centre entrance is a small stone dome. The north side of the quad¬ rangle is occupied by the private rooms of the professors, and this part too is surmounted by a dome with a gilded vane. The college is in the Saracenic style, and was planned by Mr. William Emerson of London. The stone used in its construction was procured from Mirza- pur and from Shiurajpur in the Allahabad Dis¬ trict. It is estimated to have cost Es. 8,00,000. A statue of Sir William Muir is erected in one of the corridors. It is the work of Mr. G. Simonds, and cost Es. 10,000, which sum was collected for the purpose by a num¬ ber of native gentlemen of these Provinces, beaded by the Maharaja of Benares, The Muir CoMege, Mayo Hall. andThornhill Memo¬ rial were all built by Mr. J. Heinig, Execu¬ tive Engineer, Public Works Department. * To the west of the Miair College and north of the Club stands the Mayo Hall, a biaarre structuire of red-brick, designed by Mr. Bayne, the architect of the East Indian Eailway, and completed in 1879. It consists 23 AXI.AHABAD of a spacious hall, with an excellent floor for dancing, a lofty tower or steeple 180 feet hig^ and sereral spacious committee rooms. The ñmjoT portion of the internal decorations is jfrom designs furnished by Professor Gamble oß \the South Kensington Museum, The Hall is managed by a committee, and is available for all public meetings, &c. It is lighted with gas, and contains an excellent bust of Lord Mayo, executed by Boehm. This building was elected from funds subscribed by the projectors, and from grants made by the Municipality of Allahabad and by Goveriment in memory of the Viceroy whose name it bears, and who had lately fallen by the dagger of a prisoner at the Andaman Islands, where Lord Mayo was on a visit. Its cost was about Rs. 1,85,000. On Cutcherry Road are situated the Masonic Hall, the Police Lines, and the offices of the ' Magistrate and Collector and his subordinates ; opposite which is a handsome stone dharammla for the accommodation of suitors and witnesses. The Bank of Bengal is situated at the junction of Church Road and Chatham Lines. South of these, on Church Road, is the Pioneer Press. In the same building is a Government Tele¬ graph and Post Office ; and a little to the left is Trinity Church. A continuation of Church Road, called Lowther Road, passes along the east side of Government House, and runs into the City at Kotaparcba. On it is situ- GUIDE AND DIEECTOET. 29 ated the Government High School. On the Chatham Lines is the Observatory for the Dis¬ trict of Allahabad, To the south of the park, on the other side of the Canning Hoad, is the District Jail, Of the places of public worship, the oldest is the Baptist Chapel in Elgin Boad. When the Cantonments were in Kuttra, Holy Trinity Church, at the junction of Park Boad with Church Boad, was the principal place of wor¬ ship for the Europeans, the site of Ail Saints being occupied by a small building of corrugated iron, placed there for the spiritual benefit of the railway employes. In 1872, the founda¬ tion-stone of the present All Saints' Cathedral was laid by Lady Muir, the wife of the Lieute¬ nant- Governor, In the same year was founded the Methodist Episcopal Church at the corner of Cawnpore and Clive Beads, the church being publicly opened in 1878. When the Cantonments were moved to their present site, St. Andrew's Church was erected at that end of the town for the benefit of the military. A quarter of a century ago the only church avail¬ able for the Boman Catholic community was a humble whitewashed structure in Kuttra, near the Cutcherry. The imposing edifice which now occupies the far-extending site on the City Boad and Thornhiil Boad, and known as the Boman Catholic Cathedral, owes its origin in great measure to the broad-spirited philan- 30 AltAHABAD thropy of Sir William Muir. It was during his term of office that the land was appropriated and the building commenced. The Cathedral is an edifice in the modern Italian style. It is spacious and well built, and contains a peal of four bells. The foundation-stone was laid in 1871, and the whole building cost Es. 1,50,000. It is a conspicuous monument of the energy and devotion of the Eoman Catholic com¬ munity in this part of the world, as Es. 60,000 of the total cost (which sum, however, in¬ cludes Es. 1,200 granted by Government) were raised by private contributions. Fur¬ ther down the City Eoad stands St. Paul's Divinity School, formerly named St. Peter's College. In the Chowk, in the native city, stands the City Church, which for more than twenty years has provided ministrations for the Eurasian community of the city. Be¬ sides these provisions for the religious re¬ quirements of the European community, there is St. David's Church in the centre of the Cantonments in the west, and a Presby¬ terian and an Anglican Church within the walls of Akbar's Fort on the east. / There are several agencies of a missionary 'character at work in Allahabad. The oldest of these is the American Presbyterian Mission, which began its work here more than sixty years ago. The chapel and schools are in ,Kuttra Bazaar, and near to, on the Cutcherry GUIDE AED DIRECTOET. 31 l^oad, they have a flourishing Mission Press. Many years later, the Church Missionary Society commenced work in Allahabad, and one of the fruits of that work is the establi^ment of a Native Qiristian village, on the Fapamhow Boad, known as Muirabad. These were.foliow- ed by the Baptist Missionary Society and the American Episcopal Methodists. The British and Foreign Bible Society, the Eeligious Tract Society, and the Christian Vernacular Societies have each of them very flourishing auxiliaries here. / To the European, whether visitor or resi- /dent, one of the most interesting features of / Allahabad is the Kydgunge Cemetery, on the Kydgunge Boad. It contains the remains of many of the great men who have helped to raise and maintain the British stan¬ dard in India ; and some of the inscriptions reveal a history extending over two hundred Wears of British occupancy. This cemetery has been closed for many years, the new one ^eing located on Muir Boad. Up to the year 1869 the native city possess¬ ed no covered market, but in that year the , foundations of the present City Market were laid in the Chowk. The Kotwali was raised about the year 1874. i Passing along the Chowk in the direction of the railway station, may be seen the Colrin Hospital, the Dufferin Hospital, and the Manohar Das Eye Hospital, 32 ALLAHABAD whSst a little to the west is the Strangers' Home. Kbusru Bagh, on the east of the raiiwa7 fltatnon, is the garden and serai of the ill-fated Khusru, grandson of A khar. It is a quad¬ rangle, some five hundred feet square, sur¬ rounded on all sides by a lofty and embattled wall. The gateways, two in number, are on the north and south sides, the one on the south being a noble specimen of Saracenic architecture, sixty feet in height and fifty feet in depth. Within the well-kept garden are three square mausoleums. That to the east is the tomb of Sultan Khusru, west of it is a cenotaph of Nur Jahan who was buried at Lahore, and further to the west is the tomb of Sahiba Begum, wife of the Emperor Jahangir. The mausoleum of Khusru is -very hand¬ some inside, and is ornamented with many Persian couplets, and with paintings of trees and flowers which are now faded. The actual grave is undergound, but above is a cenotaph of white marble, on a raised platform, without inscription. To the right and left two of Khusru's sons are buried. Within the gardens are situated the filter-beds of the Allahabad Water-works. The Fort was built by Akbar in 1575. It forms a striking object from the river, but its high towers have been cut down, and the stone ramparts topped with turf parapets, and fron- êtriDS AND PIBBCTOBt. 33 ted with a sloping glacis. The changes ren¬ dered necessary by modern military exigencies hare greatly detracted from its picturesqueness as a relic of antiquity. The principal gateway is capped with a dome, and has a wide vault underneath it. It is a noble entrance. The walls are from 20 to 25 feet high, and this is surrounded by a broad moat which can be filled with water at any time. Within the enclosure lie the officers' quarters, powder magazine» and barracks, while the old Palace, greatly dis¬ figured by the façade built by the English, is now utilised as an arsenal. The central room is what was the Audience Eoom. Fergusson , describes it as a hall supported by eight rows of eight columns, and surrounded by a deep verandah of double columns, with groups of four at the angles, all surmounted by bracket capitals of the richest design. CIos^ to the Palace is the Asoka Pillar, which rises fifty feet above the ground. It consists of a 1 cylindrical stone shaft, and was at one time very highly polished. On the top of it there stood, a quarter of a century ago, some animal figure in stone, which was high enough to enable the visitor on approaching the Fort to identify the locality of the column. The figure has since been removed, and nothing is now seen but the shaft itself. The mono¬ lith stands on a plinth, and all round the I surface to about hsdf the height of the pillar / $ 84 ILX/AHABAD there are a series of inscriptions in the Fali language. These curious writings are said by Prinsep to consist of the famous Edicts of Asoka, who flourished about 240 b. o., and also a record of Samudra's victories in the second century, and one by Jahangir, to com- memórate his accession to the throne. There are also minor inscriptions, beginning almost from the Christian era. The Hindu temple, preserved by Akbar, lies near the middle of the Fort. The descent to it is by a few steps leading to a dark underground passage which goes thirty-five feet to the east, then south for thirty feet to the Akshai Vriksh, or Imperishable Tree. This tree figures promi¬ nently in the sacred writings of the Hindus. It is part of a banyan tree, evidently cut down to its present height when the temple was roofed in at the time when Akbar erected his Fort. Here and there are signs of vitality in tíie shape of small green twigs. Around it on all sides are stone idols, mostly of the grotesque figures of Hanuman, the monkey-god of the Eamayan. In the centre of the temple is a Ungarn of Shiva, over which water is poured by pilgrims. Just behind the Akshai Yriksh there is a square hole in the wall level with ' the floor. The Hindus are led to believe that this hole leads to the Infernal Segions, whilst others assert, ' with an equal amount of accuracy, that it is an GUIDE AED DIBECTOST. 85 P underground passage connecting this temple with the distant City of Señares. The population of the N.-W. P. and Oudh in 1881 was 44,107,869, and in 1891, 46,922,690. B. W. B.

I CONSERVANCY CARTS. Wb haye recently made an itnproTement in the coi straction of our conservancy carts« which effects saving of at least 50 per cent, to the purchaser whc compared with the carts previously made. Before introducing the improvement« the naves < the wheels used to wear out much faster than any othi part« thus causing an extra expense of Bs. 13 per pa for changing the naves« and if the greasing of the axh was not regularly performed the wear and tear on bot naves and axles was very great. This happened ver largely with the Allahabad Municipality« and« aft< careful consideration« we have adopted the systei of putting a collar on the axles« to prevent the wheel working up against the angle-iron shaft« and the navi have been provided with bushes« thus preventing thei coming in contact with the axles. When the bushes wear out« they can at once 1 replaced by others at a cost of eight annas each i one rupee for each wheel. The price of a pair of ne naves« when they require replacing« will« as previous stated« be Bs. 13. The Allahabad Municipality ba) changed all their rolling-stock to this system. T. P.
