Here we see first of all from her own case how carelessly marriages are often arranged in India. Eamabai's grandfather, who belonged to an old and very illustrious Brahmanic family, the Kauthumas, was on a religious pilgrimage with Ramabai 135 liis family, that is, his wife and two daughters, one nine, the other seven years of age. One morning, when bathing in the Godavari, he saw a fine-look- ing man in the river, and after inquiring for his caste, his clan, and his home, and finding out that ...he was a widower, he offered him his eldest daugh- ter, that is, a child of nine, in marriage. All things being satisfactorily settled in a few hours, the marriage took place the next day, and the stranger started with his child-wife for his home, nearly nine hundred miles away from the child's own home, while the father continued his pilgrimage, unconcerned any longer about the fate of his daughter. However, the marriage, though we might call it hasty and imprudent, turned out well, and her husband, who was a great Sanskrit scholar, a pupil of Rdmachandra /S'astri, not only was kind to his little wife, but was most anxious to teach her the sacred language.
