Title conferred in January, 1913. Address: Vizagapatam, Madras Presidency. M. R.

Ry., Muthuswami Aiyar Venkatarama Aiyar AVERGAL, Rao Sahib ; Inspector of Salt, Abkari and Customs Department in the Madras Presidency. Title conferred in January, 19 13. Mallanaik Lingnaik Paxil, Rao Sahib, was bornatHire- mallig, in the DharwarTaluqa,* in September, 1877. His father named Kallanganda Dyamanganda was the Watindar Patil of the same village. Rao Mallanaik was adopted in 1898 to a distant relation, named Linganaik, who was the Watindar Patil of Bailhongal. In the words of Mr. W. D. Sheppard, Commis- sioner, Southern-Division, Mr. Mallanaik " is remarkable for his devotion to his duties as Patil. No crime may be handed up within the area where he exercises his power and on many occassions he has been mainly instrumental in bringing crimi- nals to justice. In this country it is not easy for a man to follow such a line of conduct without provoking the intensest enmities and Mr. Mallanaik has the distinction which few of us would envy, of having been shot at on more than one occa- sion. He has, however, no fear and is thoroughly brave and honorable servant of Government." Address : Bailhongal Post Office, District Belgaum. M. R. Ry., Namasivayam Pillai Velayudham Pillai Avergal, Rao Sahib, retired Tehsiidar in the Madras Presi- dency. Title conferred in January, 19 13.
