‎Tribal Law and Justice [Hardcover]‎

‎This book seeks to explain the principles of tribal law which Santals of the Santal Parganas accept as defining their civil rights and duties. These principles cover a wide range of subjects such as the rights of Santal men and women, the law of marriage and divorce, the claims which arise at the crises of birth, sickness and death. Moreover, the tribe as a whole is also an important subject for law and, besides explaining the rights of the village community, it describes in detail the functions of the tribal courts and the duties of village officials as well as the trial of Santal suits. The influence of Hindus, Muslims and Christians on Santal laws has been analysed as well. About The Author:- W.G. Acher carried has passion for poetry and Indian art into his administrative career spread over sixteen years in the Indian Civil Service. In December 1942, he was appointed Deputy Commissioner of the Santal Parganas. Before he finally left India on premature retirement, he worked as Additional Deputy Commissioner, Mokokchung in Nagaland from November 1946 to February 1948. After 1949, Archer emerged as an eminent specialist on Indian paintings, culture and poetry, and became Keeper of the Indian Department of Victoria and Albert Museum, London.

He quickly learns that Chalmsbury may be the Sodom to Flaxborough's Gomorrah. Detective Inspector Purbright finds himself on loan to the police in Chalmsbury a town that neighbors Flaxborough and is very like it in the general licentiousness of its citizenry. It seems that one ofthem has been blowing up the town's monuments and all the efforts ofthe Chalmsbury police force to find the miscreant have been in vain. Also explosives have gone missing from the Flaxborough civil defense center where by an odd coincidence Chief Inspector Hector Larch ofthe Chalmsbury police force spends his Tuesday nights. Determined not to get in Larch's way Purbright takes his time getting to know the locals but when one of them is killed in the latest explosion he steps up his investigations. With almost no clues to go on save a few scraps of cobbled together verse he sorts through the town's eccentric residents until he finally gets his man.
