You don't think your countrymen ought to try Europeans ? Deputy, Most certainly they should not. The gloilous 1}ritish Empire will come to an end if they do. Magistrate, Well Babu, I am glad to see you are so sensible, I wish all your conntrymen were equally so, at least that all native magistrates were like you, Deputy, Oh Sir how can you expect it, when there are men at the top of our service who think differently. Magistrate. Are you not yourself hear the top r you must have served song. Deputy. Unfortunately my claims to promotion have always been overlooked, I thought of speaking to you, Sir ön the subject, Y. Magistrate. You certainly deservo.
