Excerpt from Notes on Criminal Tribes
These few notes were originally commenced with the intention of aiding the Police to recog nize, and cope with, the Criminal Tribes who frequent these parts of India. At the request of friends the papers appeared first in the Times of India, and in hopes that they may be of some slight interest to the public, and especially to those whose duty brings them in constant contact with the predatory classes, they are now issued.
