De 1'it-tra Santa, p. 54 - "Erde oder Feuer?" by Wilbelm ticlmffer. Darmstadt, 1890 " Keg. XVII. Of 1829. 92 THE LAW OF CREMATION. tice is not kept up nor observed. In some extensive districts it does not exist. In those in which it has been most frequent, it is notorious that, in many instances, acts of atrocity have been perpetrated, which have been shocking to the Hindus themselves and in their eyes unlawful and wicked. " The measures hitherto adopted to discourage and prevent such acts have... failed of success, and the Governor-General in Council is deeply impressed with the conviction that the abuses in question cannot be effectually put an end to without abolishing the practice altogether. Actuated by these considerations, the Governor-General in Council, without intending to depart from one of the first and most important principles of the system of British government in India, that all classes of the people be secure in the observance of their religious usages so long as that system can be adhered to without violating the paramount dictates of justice and humanity lias deemed it right to establish the following rules, which are hereby enacted to be in force from the time of their promulgation throughout the territories immediately subject to the Presidency of Fort William.
