**Kambaladāyaka-Tissa.**—A name given to the monk who was later known as **Vanavāsī-Tissa** (*q.v.*). Though only seven years old, he was of great merit, and when he saw monks suffering from the cold he undertook to find them blankets. One thousand monks went to **Sāvatthi** with him, and in a very short while he obtained for them more than the requisite number of blankets. Thenceforth he was called by the name of **Kambaladāyaka**.¹
