Footnote 2.7.145:
[For the island of Piram in Ahmadabad district see _IGI_, xx. 149 f.,
and for the tradition Wilberforce-Bell, _op. cit._ 71 f.; _BG_, iv.
348, viii. 114.]
Footnote 2.7.146:

Footnote 2.7.147:
_Sarwaiya Khatri tain sar._
Footnote 2.7.148:
_Su_, as before observed, is a distinctive prefix, meaning
‘excellent.’ [The derivation is impossible. Lāta was S. Gujarāt.]

Footnote 2.7.150:
In 1807 the author passed through this territory, in a solitary ramble
to explore these parts, then little known; and though but a young
_Sub._, was courteously received and entertained both at Baroda and
Sheopur. In 1809 he again entered the country under very different
circumstances, in the suite of the British envoy with Sindhia’s court,
and had the grief to witness the operations against Sheopur, and its
fall, unable to aid his friends. The Gaur prince had laid aside the
martial virtues. He became a zealot in the worship of Vishnu, left off
animal food, was continually dancing before the image of the god, and
was far more conversant in the mystical poetry of Krishna and his
beloved Radha than in the martial song of the bard. His name was
Radhikadas, ‘the slave of Radha’; and, as far as he is personally
concerned, we might cease to lament that he was the last of his race.
Footnote 2.7.151:
[Only two sub-clans are named in _Rajputana Census Report, 1911_, i.
255. Gaur Rājputs are numerous in the United Provinces, and the Gaur
Brāhmans of Jaipur represent a foreign tribe merged into Hindu society
(_IA_, xi. 22). They can have no connexion with the Pāla or Sena
dynasty of Bengal (Smith, _EHI_, 397 ff.).]
Footnote 2.7.152:

ff.).]

Slain at the instigation of Prince Salim, son of Akbar, afterwards the
emperor Jahangir. See this incident stated in the emperor’s own
_Commentaries_ [_Āīn_, i. Introd. xxiv. ff.].
