Rembau, one of the Nine States: its History, Constitution and Customs.
BY C. W. C. PARR AND W. H. MACKRAY,
Of the Federated Malay States Civil Service.
The compilers of this pamphlet were requested by Mr. D. G. Campbell, British Resident of Negri Sembilan, to pre- pare a summary of the Rembau Customs relating to land tenure, marriage, divorce and inheritance.
In view of the absence of any sufficient published ac- count of Rembau, it was subsequently decided to add to the original scheme short historical and constitutional sketches of the State.
The compilers are indebted both for numerous sugges- tions, and for information as to the parallel customs of Naning to Mr. J. L. Humphreys, Acting District Officer, Alor Gajah; and they have to thank Mr. W. L. Conlay, Chief Police Office, Negri Sembilan, for much valuable criticism.
