¹¹⁵ Most Hindu festivals are associated in the first place with *tithis*, and the following notes for which we are chiefly indebted to Prof. Kielhorn's article in Vol. XXVI of the *Indian Antiquary*, pages 177—187, will be of interest to Hindu readers as well as to others. Prof. Kielhorn described the Hindu festivals in order of the lunar months: by way of variation, we will discuss them in the order of *tithis*. Our arrangement will enable the reader to locate at once an *ashtamī* or an *ekādaśī*, although the month is, as usual, suppressed in such citations.
