It is further recorded in the Mysore Census Report, 1891, that "in most of the purely Malnad or hilly taluks, each vargdar, or proprietor of landed estate, owns a set of servants styled Huttalu or Huttu-alu and Mannalu or Mannu-alu. The former is the hereditary servitor of the family, born in servitude, and performing agricultural work for the landholder from father to son. The Mannalu is a serf attached to the soil, and changes hands with it. They are usually of the Holaya class, but, in some places, the Hasalar race have been entertained." (See Holeya.) Concerning the Hasalaru, Mr. H. V. Nanjundayya writes to me that "their marriages take place at night, a pujari of their caste ties the tali, a golden disc, round the bride's neck. Being influenced by the surrounding castes, they have taken of late to the practice of inviting the astrologer to be present. In the social scale they are a little superior to Madigas and Holeyas, and, like them, live outside the village, but they do not eat beef. Their approach is considered to defile a Brahman, and they do not enter the houses of non-Brahmans such as Vakkaligas and Kurubas. They have their own caste barbers and washermen, and have separate wells to draw water from."

They also draw the figure of an elephant, and worship it, when they perform sradh (memorial service for the dead) and other ceremonies.
