Bharata Bhandar, Ltd., The ... ... ... xiii
In its main design it follows that excellent book of reference, and it will
be apparent to those glancing through its p'ages that it covers a wide
ground. The name of almost every man and woman who has worked
or is working for the good of India, in the moral or material, religious
or political spheres has been, it is thought, included in it. Every
endeavour has been made to include the names of all title-holders in
India, but it is possible that owing to non-receipt of replies or from the
paucity of information available, there are occasional omissions. In
the next edition of the Dictionary, it is hoped to make good this short-
coming. A work like this depends very largely for its accuracy and
comprehensiveness on the help that the general public render its Editor.
It is hoped that many more will respond in the years to come to the
appeals for information sent to them. In order to facilitate the work of
giving accurate addresses, a desideratum, in a reference book of this
kind, those sending back proofs will help the Editor very much, in-
deed, if they will add an address or check the one already inserted and
supplement the same with the name of the club or clubs to which they
may belong, so that correspondence may be easily directed to them.
PREFACE
Clubs in India arc very numerous and there are few who do not
belong to one or other of these. To facilitate their work a list of clubs
is included in the appendices printed at the end of this volume to
which reference is solicited.
In conclusion the Editor would tender his thanks to the many gentle-
men who have helped him in any way in bringing out tfte work. He
would specially thank those who have readily responded to his call for
information. Also, those who have ver}' considerately tendered sugges-
tions to increase the utility of the book. He would also express his
thanks to Messrs. K. V. Raja Rao and T. Raja Rao who have assisted
him in the preparation of the volume and to Mr. L. Swami Rao, b.a.,
in reading the proofs.
The Editor.

The following is a summary description, in alphabetical order,

Bishop. Every Bishop must have been in priest's orders,,
must be at least thirty years of age, must be born in lawful wed-
lock, and must be recommended by the Crown to the dean and

Imperial Service Order. Instituted by King Edward on
his Coronation, 1902, formembers of the Civil Service of the
Empire, to be conferred after Long and Meritorious Service.
Knight Bachelor. — This rank is far more ancient than any
all now receive this accolade before they can assume the designa-
tion of " Sir." When residence abroad prevents the personal
reception of this honour, it has of late become the practice to
issue letters patent granting the " style, title, and dignity of a
knight " to the favoured individual. The prefix of " Sir " is ex-
clusively English as appertaining to Knighthood, and is not
necessarily borne by any Foreign knight. In Ireland the Lord-
Lieutenant can confer the honour of Knighthood. The origin of
the designation Knight Bachelor is plausibly derived by some
authors from the words has chevalier, indicating the superiority
of the class of Knights Banneret who were created under the
royal standard displayed in open war.
Knights of the Most Honourable Order of the Bath. —
