Description
Excerpt from The Nandi: Their Language and Folk-Lore
The Nandi themselves since the punitive expedition of 1905-6 have settled down quietly, and give promise to become a law-abiding tribe. The land included in their native reserve is some of the best in the Protectorate, and early this year I passed through miles of country made ready for the sowing operations which had just commenced. The suspicious attitude shown by the Nandi towards the Administration and their fear and dislike of the white man have now quite disappeared, and it only rests with those Officials who, by sympathetic treatment, have so successfully won their affections to develop the best qualities of these people and make them useful members of the community.
