A Journey through the Kingdom of Oude, Volumes I & II

CHAPTER V
66/83

Hurhur Deo had two sons, one of whom, Kurun Rae, established himself in Nyhussa, and the other, Khem Kurun, in Synbunsee.

Their descendants have taken their titles from their respective villages.
Prethee Chund's descendants established themselves in other parts, and the descendants of both bear the appellation of Tilokchundee Byses.

The Rajahs and Rows are of the same family, and are so called from their ancestors having, at some time, had the title of Rajah and Row conferred upon them.
Rajah Seodursun Sing, of Simrotee, who resides in the village of Chundapoor upon his estate, four miles east of Bulla, has been with me for the last five days.

He is a strong man, and has been refractory occasionally; but at present he pays his revenue punctually, and keeps his estate in good order.

He rendered good service yesterday in the way in which all of his class might, by good management, be made to aid the government of Oude.
