A “dhursie,” or tailor. Probably a Bengalee from the dress. Barefoot, of course. Wages 16 to 32 cts. a day. Very unusual to see the treadle. Singer machines invade the East everywhere, but in India the usual sight is the hand attachment, the native and his machine both on the floor. [portrait of man sitting at sewing machine in street]

Benares. “Ghats” (= gawts). A ghat is a flight of steps into the river used for bathing or washing, or worshipping. This is the R. Ganges, so sacred that it is an object of pilgrimage from all India. Nearly every rajah has a palace on it. Here a Hindu wishes to die & have his corpse burned. We saw all these things going on. The peaked buildings are temples. Palaces at top [view across river to opposite bank]

An “ekka”, the usual native conveyance “up country” in India. Law limits the capacity to six, which seems to be the usual number. Space really for only one. I had to ride to an out of the way palace at Jeypore in one yesterday. At Kapurthalla our 3 trunks and 4 bags went 7 m. in one for 50 cts. [three men riding in horse-drawn cart]
