A loams in Government Taluks was prepared and in Col. 14 of the loam Register the loams registered pursuant to the Regulation were set out. In the village Challayapalem are found mentioned in that Register-three Inams-the Challayapalem shrotriem (which is in dispute in the present case), and two other personal Inams each of an area of 0-93 cents. Apart from the preparation of this loam B Register, nothing substantial was done under the Regulation till 1860. About the actings of the shrotriemda."s and the tenants between 1802 and 1860 there is very little evidence. There is no evidence as to when the five minor inams, including those two mentioned in the Inam Register, were created, who paid the 1evenue, whether tenants were shifted from lands in their occupation, or c lands originally not occupied were brought under cultivation. In 1860 the Inam Commission commenced an inquiry in the Nellore District. Exhibit B-195 is a record of the statement made by the shrotriemdars Muthuraju Subbarao and Muthuraju Subbarammayya of Chellayapalem. In Col. 6 it is recorded that the grant was made during the time of the Nawabs for maintenance so as to be D enjoyed from son to grandson and so on in succession, and in Col. 7 details of the lands are set out. Out of the total area of the land 21 Gorrus 12/16 are recorded as poramboke, 5 Gorrus and U Visas as minor inams, and 126. 3! visas as cultivated lands-dry, wet and garden. The boundaries and particulars of the inam lands E are shown as if the inam grant was of the whole village, the description of the boundaries being of lands of other villages to the East, South, West and on the North of lands of military barracks. Income of the shrotriem is fixed at Rs. 1,449-5-5 per annum and the total jodi at Rs. 1,225-12-2, leaving a balance of Rs. 223-9-3 to the shrotriemdars. This statement is described as written and filed by F Muthuraju Subbarao and Subbarammayya shrotriemdars of Challayapalem, and that it was confirmed by the Village Officers. Pur~uant to the enquiry made by the loam Commissioner entries were pos'ted in the Inam Fair Register. In Ext. A-1 which is described as "an extract from the Register of Inams in the village of Chellayapalem shrotriem in the taluk of Nellore" in Col. 21 it was recited G that the shrotriem "being more than 50 years old could be confirmed. In the account of Fasli 1221 the income of the shrotriemdars for ten years previous to that Fasli is given. It is shown in the margin that the shrotriem is r.~nted from Fasli 1263 to Fasli 1287, that is for a period of 25 years for the sum of Rs. 244 above the jodi. The cost of the repair to be borne half by the H tenant and half by the shrotriemdars. . . Almost the whole land is now under cultivation and there is scarcely any room for further improvement.
