KRISHNA KANTA'S WILL.
Binod. "That is not well. Even supposing him to be in fault, still, he has a son. The child is innocent. What will he have to depend on."
Krishna. "I will bequeath him a sixty-fourth share."
Binod. "In the division of the property what will that represent?"
Krishna. "My income is two lakhs of rupees. A sixty-fourth share will come to more than three thousand rupees. With that sum a grihastha can easily get on in the way of food and clothing. I will not give more."
Binod Lâl urged the matter long, but in vain. The Kartâ could not be persuaded to change his purpose.
