Out-houses, baithak-khanas, chandi-mandaps, and kachharis are employed as school-houses here as elsewhere, the place occupied generally belonging to the principal supporter of the school, and sometimes to the teacher himself. In one instance, one of the scholars in a Persian school, in payment of the instruction he receives, supplies the teacher with a school-house rent-free. Of the Persian schools, about a dozen have school-houses expressly built for that purpose, and varying in the estimated cost of erection from six rupees to two hundred. Three of the Arabic schools have buildings estimated to have cost 50, 200 and 250 rupees respectively. Another has a school-house with a dwelling-house attached, in the upper-story of which the teacher lives, while the scholars are lodged below. Two of them have large endowments, with buildings estimated to cost, in one instance 15,000, and in the other 50,000, rupees. Each endowment is applied to the support not only of a school, but of a hospital, a mosque, and a sacred relic.
