lxviii 페이지 - In effect, the grave, unhappy doubt which settles on my mind is, whether India is the better for our rule, so far as regards the social condition of the great mass of the people. We have put down widowburning, we have sought to check infanticide ; but I have travelled hundreds of miles through a country peopled with beggars and covered with wigwam villages.
