Fairs.—Annual fairs were held, in the months of Karttik and Phalgun, at the towns of Kolait and Gajner,¹ and frequented by the merchants of the adjacent countries. They were celebrated for cattle, chiefly the produce of the desert, camels, kine, and horses from Multan and the Lakhi Jungle,¹ a breed now almost extinct. These fairs have lost all their celebrity; in fact, commerce in these regions is extinct.
