## Summary

FATH MASIH had been appointed "patwari" * in a large village. Though many Hindus and Mahomedans in that village had been annoyed at the situation being given to a Christian, and some bigoted individuals annoyed him as much as they could, the poor in general were pleased. Here was a man who dealt justly; here was a man who took no bribes; here was a man ready to listen to the appeal of the humblest, a friend of the widow and the orphan. The people thought better of Christianity, when they saw the life led by the Christian.
