LOHANA AMILS Hindooism sits lightly upon them. Besides Amils or Government employes, the Lohana caste have many other occupations. They are found as bankers, dealers in money, merchants, shopkeepers, agriculturists, &c. Their costumes are rich and handsome, and as a class they are well dressed. None wear turbans, but have adopted the usual Sindee hat or cap, as shown in the Photographs. All have adopted the beard, and, with their dress, they are more like Mahomedans than Hindoos.
