Note 5 — N
Reading edition
It is recorded5 that, in the Parvatipūr country of the Vizagapatam district, “the Paidis (Paidi Mālas) do most of the crime, and often commit dacoities on the roads. Like the Konda Doras, they have induced some of the people to employ watchmen of their caste as the price of immunity from theft. They are connected with the Dombus of the Rāyagada and Gunupur tāluks, who are even worse.”
