v YAVASTHA-DARPANA. 483 Raj Chandra Ráy, the heir of Kashi Nath, and the respondent Digambar Rāy should each receive one share, but that the respondent should not participate in the acquisitions of Rasm Sundar Ray, from his own funds, which were declared not liable to partition among the co-parcenera. Final judgment was given by the Sudder Dewanny Adawlut accordingly amending the decree passed in favour of the respondent by the provincial Court, and directed an immediate partition to be made of the ancestral estate, according to the distribution above determined on. 28th May 1817. S. D. A. R. vol. II. pp. 287—240. * - PROPERTY NOT LIABLE TO PARTITION 176 Excepting what is gained by valour, the wealth of a wife", and what is vyayastha acquired by science, which are three sorts of property exempt from partition ; and any favour conferred by a father.”—NATADA. The meaning of this text is, that since the gains of valour, what has been obtained from the parents in law, &c. on account of having capoused a wife, the gains of science, and what has been received through affection from a father and others, are indivisible: therefore, setting these four aside, the rest (of wealth) is divisiblet. 177 What is given by a paternal grandfather, or by a father, as a token of affec- Vwawasthaʼ tion, belongs to him who receives it; neither that, nor what is given by a mother, shall be claimed by co-heirst—Vyasa. 178 Clothes, vehicles, ornaments, prepared food, water, women, furniture for Vyavathaf repose or for meals, a place of sacrifice, and a field, are not divisiblet. I. “Clothes, vehicles, ornaments, prepared food, water, women, and furniture for repose or for Authority meals (a), are declared not liable to distribution.”—MANU & Vishnut. (a). “Clothes'—personal apparel and raiment intended to be worn at assemblies. * Vehicles'—carrsiges or horses and the like { ornamente–Řings and so forth. ‘Prepared food”--sweetmeats, &c.
- What was received at the time of obtaining a wife is here called the “wealth of a wife;” meaning effects obtained on account of marriage. Excepting these acquisitions let him divide other property; for this phrase is here understood, as expressed in another sentence. Coleb Das, bha. p. 111. ա: 諡 Coleb.
