P. "Then why did you not land it at Goriat, and give it me there, or why did you even buy it at all at Aden if it was of no use?" D. "Because the Nahkoda took it to Bunder Gori." P. "Where are the bales of cloth which by my account and Imam's are missing?" D. "I did not take them; somebody else must have."

Phiroze Hoshang Dastur, Fourth Presidency Magistrate, under sections 302 and 109 of the Code, with having on the night of the 30th of December last murdered a Hindoo girl named Cassi, aged 12, by strangulation, in the room of a chawl at Jakaria Bunder, on the Sewriroad, and also with aiding and abetting each other in the commission of the offense. "Mr.

No arguments of mine would alter the decision of the inflexible chief; I therefore changed the subject by asking him to assist me in procuring camels, by which I might go into the interior, and feel my way thereafter. This he readily agreed to, and begged permission to return to Bunder Gori to give the necessary orders to his subjects.

But the man of mystery himself is delighted with it and thinks it is the best trick in his repertoire. The Bunder Boat. Our next trick so called because the toy boat used is intended to be a miniature of the harbour or "bander" boat used in Bombay is a trick which depends entirely on natural principles, and only needs a careful eye to time its required patter.

The etymological part of the story is, doubtless, fabulous; it expresses, however, the popular belief that the founder of the eastward or windward tribes, now extending over the seaboard from Bunder Jedid to Ras Hafun, and southward from the sea to the Webbes , was a man of ignoble origin.

They had a faded, washed-out look; and I do not wonder at it, considering the life they lead. They get up about nine, breakfast and pay or receive visits, then tiffen, siesta, a drive to the Apollo Bunder, to hear the band, or to meet their husbands at the Fort, dine and bed that is the programme of the day. The men are better because they have cricket and polo.

The club-house on the Apollo Bunder possesses the best situation on the water front, and from its verandas fashionables watch matches that are sailed with consummate skill.
