"The incessant inspection of the darogahs and their people, " says the Eesident, " and the fear of incurring punishment for any deviation of the duty expected of them must have effectually deterred the w^eavers, while manufacturing tbe cloths, from attempting any improper practices. " Guards were placed over any weaver who showed an unwillingness to work and corporal punishment was inflicted on them if they attempted to abscond. Besides being thus oppressed they were defraiided of a considerabl...e portion of the wfiges allowed them by Government. Speaking of the condition of the Dacca weavers at this time the Abbe Raynal remarks (Raynal's History of the Settlements and Trade of the Europeans in the East and West Indies, Vol. II, p. 157) : " It was a misfortune to them to appear too dexterous, because they were then forced to work only for the Government which paid them ill and kept them in a sort of captivity. "* In the middle of the eighteenth century the establishment of the Dacca factory consisted of two or more European factors, a con- siderable number of domestic and factory servants engaged on sorting, marking and packing the cloths and a company of sepoys.
