Waghoji is the name of the an. He hails from a small village in the Ahmed nagar district. He is between 10 and 13, a man of quite reagre build, and is more- over reported to be slightly lame in ora leg. This one single individual dragged along several furlong a long line of country-carts numbering about sixty-one.

It was a company of thirty to forty persons all dressed in deep, yellow and each one throwing about, himself and into the air a powder yellow, the national colour of the Maharaja Holkar, and also a colour favourite with the God Mailhari of Gejari, near Poona, which is the family deity of the Holkar dynasty.
