37. "When a poor man or peasant brings any kind of animal to Ahmadabad or its *puras* for sale, exactions are made from them twice,—first as the import duty (*āmdani*) and secondly as the royal commission on the sale-price. If they cannot sell it but wish to return with it, the officials exact an export duty (*raftani*)"! [*M. i.* 262.]
