upon that income, which is estimated by the subcommittee at Hooghly to yield the sum of Rs. 45,000 per annum.
'The Governor-General adverting to the conditions of the will resolves that three-ninths of the income from the Zemindaries shall permanently be assigned for the current expenses of the Imambara. Of the two-ninths of the income assigned to the Mutwallis but which are now at the disposal of the Government, the Governor-General in Council assigns one-ninth to the agent or Mutwalli appointed by the Government, but he does not deem it necessary to appoint a second Mutwalli or to appropriate the second ninth share assigned by the testator to the co-trustee nominated in the original will. This ninth, therefore, will be available for general purposes of a benevolent nature along with the surplus fund to which I shall presently advert.
'The four-ninths of the Zemindari income appropriated by the testator to pensions and establishments must remain burthened with these charges, but as many of the pensions must have lapsed, the Governor-General in Council considers that the income arising from such lapses may be fairly added to the surplus fund appropriable to general purposes. The expenses of the hospital will, however, remain a permanent charge under this head, but there appears to be an expense incurred for education at present which will be of course merged in the original fund.
